  1. Hi, I recently purchased the 2007 YBR125 and it does have an automatic choke.

    However it must be said that the 'Automatic' method of choking is not by conventional means !

    The 2007 model sports an Electronic Fuel Injection system which controls the fuel mixture and idle speed.

    I've had the bike for 2 months now and have clocked up nearly 2k without a glitch.

    Unfortunatly the fuel system is still very new and there's little info about the system on the web as yet.

    If anyone has any info about the Electronic Fuel Injection System used in the YBR125 2007 model I'd be happy to explore whatever performance options it may present.

    I use this bike for daily work commuting and found it to be just what I need. Its nice and torquey in the low-mid range but lacks that bit of extra umph top end.

    I'm sure there's a couple of extra horses in the engine since the exhaust has a built in catalyser which must surely zap some power !

    Hi sjhall,

    I hav got the 2006 YBR125. I have heard that the 2007 model has a side stand, the 2006 model has everything about from the electrics to fit side stand. Does your bike have the side stand or is it like the 2006 model?

  2. Have either of you tried the insurance comparison service here?

    http://insurance.yamahaclub.com

    Would be interesting to see how the quotes compare, if you do let me know.

    I have just done an insurance quote with the above site. I was very shockd with the results which has made me keep with MC Edwards. The reults were:

    Here are the most competitive THIRD PARTY FIRE & THEFT annual premiums we could find for you. (YAMAHA YBR-125 - 124CC)

    Premium Insurer Excess

    £371.66 Equity Red Star £150 Policy Summary Start Cover

    £490.54 Highway Insurance Co Ltd. £250 Policy Summary Start Cover

    £563.96 Zenith Insurance plc £500 Policy Summary Start Cover

    However as i mentioned above my insurance with MC Edwards is £215.00 a year which compared to these is much better and cheaper.

    If anyone would like to get an insurance quote from them their number is 08700101125, if you do let me know if it works out cheaper for you.

  4. Hi, I am a new rider, i have a Yamaha YBR 125. This is a fantastic bike and looks lovely, (without faring). I have had her since Noember 2006 and been scared to ride her, however over the last few weeks i have taken her out on my own for the first time as my boyfriend used to come with me. To cut a long story short on the first attmept i got stuck at traffic lights, second attmept got stuck coming ontomy campus (which is a hill) and the third attempt (today) i managed to get all the way hme without getting stuck at the traffic lits and coming on to my campus. Yeppy :D ! The only time i stalled was when a car decided to move then stop and i was to busy moaning and not paying attenton to what i was doing. Im so pleased with myself, i only went to town for some milk. He he

    Take a look at y beautiful bike. She looks lovely in this picture. Feel free to look through the rest, sme are my sister, cat boyfriend, and his bikes he has had.

  5. Hey All,

    Since my last post I haven't been able to get a quote from the Yamaha insurance site, it may have had technical prob's?

    So on my search on the net I stumbeld across this site www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk

    Excellent! Saved me money! :D

    It's definately worth giving them a go if any one is looking?

    Cheers guys!

    Hey,

Unfortunately they do not have a site but i was able to get my insurance for £215.00 which i thougt was very good considering I dont have any expereince and im 20 tomorrow so i was quite surprised on their quote. If anyone would like there number then feel free email me.

    Bikes are fantasti if the wind doesnt knock them over as it has done to mine twice since november.
