[YBR 125 wont start]

JUST SO YA KNOW GUYS...............i had an 07 ybr till last month.

you wont have a kill switch cos the bike is fuel injected not carbed(if its same as mine)

bike will cut out if side stand down and u put it in gear,clutch in or not.

and just in case its like my fazer.....the bike wont go if its in gear on the center stand either! (could ve been v embarresing that one!)

also guys just for your own information........getting banned on the island DOES mean you are banned in the uk also,our licensing laws changed a year or two ago to be in line with uk laws...

our own goverment,our own laws,............they are only ours when it suits them...they follow uk a year or two later anyway.......apparently we are getting running water in the next few years!!!

[Running in a ybr]

I have just brought a brand new ybr and i was wondering how long you have to run it in for and what is the maximum RPM you can do wile running it in. I want to keep the bike a wile so i want to run it in properly.

Any help would be apresheated.

thanks

pete

pete, running it in is easy peesy, just keep the revs reasonably low in all gears do about 200 miles and then start to rev alittle more,at 500-750 miles get first service done,from then on just build the revs up every 100 or so miles,at 1000 miles it should be ok to give it the gas 1500 to 2000 miles give it all its got, if ya just run it slow all its life itll be a dog, in my opinion 4 strokes are like deisel cars,if ya just ride/drive at a slow low rev pace then itll just bog down and stay down, i had a works van that had been driven too slow from new and what a pig........got another a year later from new.....ragged it at 2000 miles (not every where or every day tho) and it was so much better.

others may have other opinions but thats mine.

[THE NEW AQUISITION]

[Yamaha fazer 1999 oil and petrol warning light]

I may be wrong, but isnt that what happens when u try and start the bike with the side stand down??, Im sure my 2000 fazer does this, could it be the switch??

i have a 1999 also,

there is also a switch on the center stand,sounds to me like one of the stand switches is faulty.

ive had mine only about 2 weeks but already finding things that i need to know, someone put mine in gear when i left it over night(i never leave any of my bikes in gear),came down,key in .nothing..went for jump leads thinking battery was flat (locked stearing n thought i had put par lights on too).........luckily i had to move the bike to get it near jump vehicle and ey presto its in gear.......back in neautral and awayshe went!............anyway enough of my stupidity try shorting the two switches so it takes them out of the loop......maybe work maybe im talking crap but its worth a try.

[2007 YBR 125 Electrical/Fuel Injection Problem]

Hi,

My 2007 YBR 125 I've owned from new has just packed up, it's been running fine since I bought it, but about 2 weeks ago, I went to start the bike, and after turning the ignition on, the usual 'whirring' of the fuel injectors priming sounded a bit weird and lasted only about half as long as it usually does. The starter motor still ran, but the engine would not fire and the engine management light flashes until the ignition is turned off.

At the time, I simply turned the ignition off and then back on again and the bike started without problems. It happened once or twice more, and then I went to go out for a ride last weekend and it refused to start, even after several restarts. I took all the plastics off and disconnected, WD-40'd and re-connected every electrical connector on the bike, thinking it was a bad connection somewhere.

The bike still refused to start, so I removed the petrol cap (not sure why) and put it back on, and the bike then started after that. I let the engine run for a few minutes, and then it cut out (first time it's cut out while running, previously it was only a problem getting it started!).

The only weird thing I can think of within the last few weeks is that I recently filled my tank at a local garage I don't usually use, and the petrol may have been weird?

My nearest Yamaha dealer is over 20 miles away, and my local garage say there's nothing they're able to do, as a diagnostic tool needs to be run on it. Any ideas what I can do myself?

Thanks.

hi mate, i had a similar problem a couple of times, once when on a lesson too!

what i found was that the connector for the starter motor...bottom right hand side of bike...........was not quite "home".a push on it and and i have never had same problem.....just an idea for you.
