  1. Can anyone recommend a good face mask for the cold weather. I had one that I bought from Rivetts of London who I believe have gone bust and I can't find the damn thing...

  2. I am looking to Insure my Yamaha YZF-R125 and have just had my renewal from Bennetts for £170 fully comp protected with 7 years no claims and I have a full bike licence...

    I have just done a comparison quote with The Bike Insurer and as always with comparison sites it has come up with plenty of companies I have never heard of as Brokers, but no the insure companies ie. Equity Red Star.

    Has anyone heard of aQuote as they have offered £125 with legal protection (£100,000.

    Other than that anyone recommend anywhere else that I can get a quote please?

  3. I agree - that's why I do my own for the most part, main dealers are really expensive and look down their noses at anything older than about 5 years!

    How many hours labour?

    :huh:

    It didn't say how many hours labour, but I can't imagine it being much. I had to use them as the bike is still under warranty...

  4. I have just paid £160 to have my bike serviced from the main dealer. When you look at the breakdown on the bill I paid £118 just in labour... It was it's 3500 mile service.

    How can they justify that!!!!!! :angry:

  5. i got mine for £10 from busters, "Keiti Additions"

    specifically a R125 one you want?, i bought a blue one to match the colour of my bike, and because it has tits on it, and when you're my age having a nekkid chick on your fuel tank adds so much to your streetcred :P

    I looked on there and they only had 2 and where about £20 if I remember. It has to fit a 125...

  6. well i dissagree with you i'm 12 and a half stone and mine pulls all the way to 85 no probs

    Is yours de restricted? As I weigh the same and the fastest I have had is about 73mph....

  7. If the bike is less than 6 months old, take it back to where you got it from and have them look at it as it must still be under warranty?

    I have booked it in.....

  8. The bike is less than 6 months old so I have basically done not much to it. I checked the oil and it is still fine and as for the clutch it feels ok. I did find that on a few occasions when I started it it was very 'spluterry', but I put this down to the cold weather as it had been outside for several hours and it was 3am.....

  9. I have noticed in the last few days that I am struggling to get my R125 over 63mph and that is at 80,000 revs in top gear. I can usually get 73mph out of it. Is anyone else having or had a similar problem and can anyone think of what the problem may be before I get it checked out?

  10. Not to mention if you're like me and you like to go out and go to a pub or party or bar and you use it and you forget you have it on it can and WILL cause MAJOR DAMAGE. So I hate them.

    Moral of the story don't drink and ride :o and you won't forget it...And the one I have got has an alarm on....
