Spraguepsycho1 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Great looking bike, man we need those over here. I'd love to have one for the wife or my son to learn to ride on, to use to teach my non street riding friends, or even to just ride around myself close to home to save gas and use as a track bike. Since the Ninja and Hyosung 250's are the only decent looking small sportbikes over here, they are way overpriced. Yamahead, Could you imagine riding one of those somewhere like the Tiller Highway here in the northwest? I think they'd be great in the tighter canyons in the US where you don't have enough room to use a lot of speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imanupstart Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 Thanks for the comments guys And i've heard that before from Americans, saying there are very few lower powered bikes for beginners and as a result lots of 600's end up wrapped round trees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoKz Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 when i was on buisness in the van, i had seen a yellow one filtering, it did look awsome ( this was at night ) the back light was so sleek, at 1st glance you wouldnt have clicked it to being a 125 but that pic does look good, looks photoshoped alot tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spraguepsycho1 Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I can think of a handful of roads I'd like to rail that 125 on! ...... That looks like it was taken about 3 hours due north of me. I'm guessing somewhere between Redmond and Prineville? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closer to Redmond than Prineville It's called OB Riley Rd........west of Bend....Tumalo State park is right around the next RH curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I was pretty close on the location then, had the general area right at least, I knew it had to be near Redmond to get that angle on Sisters, and the junipers instead of pines meant it had to be east of the Cascades lol.
