Recently bought a 2013 EFI YBR125 and it seems to have a fault, but no error lights (The light does work on first turning of the key, so not a bulb issue). The bike starts first or second stab of the starter button and ticks over lovely and quiet, BUT is is really fluffy at picking up when cold and nearly stalls, so to be clear it doesn't increase revs cleanly, it has massive lag. Once it's ticked over for a few minutes it goes away and runs fine, and picks up cleanly. Air filter is spotless, plug looks OK if a little rich, has fuel. Is this "Normal" for cheap injected bikes, was expecting a nice clean pick up and pull away from the off?? Any advice/views greatly appreciated, as i have some long runs planned. Cheers Ian

Hi, ive just bought a YBR125 for some fun, going to start from my house in Rutland ride to lands end, then up to John O Groats via the west coast of Scotland and then back home, this is a test run before flying the bike to Cape town and riding it north to Lira in Uganda, to give the bike to a charity i support over the internet, so about 7,000 miles between them, should give my arse a work out! Have plenty of other bikes to play with from Aprilia RSV, Ducati 851 down to Benelli 250 2c, Sunbeam S8 and a Monet Goyon from 1954. cheers Ian
