Posted March 21, 201014 yr Hiya. I have recently purchased a yam ybr 125. I'm from the UK and havn't done my CBT yet, so can't really ride it. I am just looking round the bike and seeing where everything is. Did the ignition shut off test earlier. I've downloaded the manual from there website and it mentions the fuel cock. This is a switch where you are supposed to switch the fuel from on, off and reserve. Thing is, the manual sais its supposed to be under the seat but i cant find it anywhere. The manual also stated that it may be in different places depending which model you got. I got a standard YBR 125ED. Is it possible my bike doesnt have one, or its automaticly done or sometihng? it's on a 57 plate. Thanks all
March 21, 201014 yr The 08 models are injection and don't have one, depends if yours is a late carb or an early injection model I guess.
March 21, 201014 yr Author ahh thanks. I'd say thats what it is. I'm a complete novice at bikes. Check out the link, it's a picture of mine. Can you see if it's fuel injection by looking at it? http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/3172/dsc00066pg.jpg
June 8, 201014 yr well i have a 2006 and the fuel pump switch is on the other side of the bike, so if it isnt there then yours is fuel injected is my guess
June 19, 201014 yr If it has a fuel tap you know the plastic bit just under the fuel tank on the opposite side to the one showing in the photo (nearside) that's where you will find the fuel tap what year is the bike fuel injection started 2007 I think had mine for 4 1/2 years carb model 05 best you identify the exact model as you will need it when it come to getting spares good luck PS it looks like the injection model
July 15, 201014 yr can you make a picture of your bike from the left side. This way I can tell you for sure.
July 15, 201014 yr Looks exactly the same as my model of YBR (Except different decals on the panels) Same Exhaust too. From what I've noticed, the Carb versions have a full chrome exhaust (Same as the customs) Best thing to check is: Start the bike up cold, if it's idling at around 2k, then once warm, idles down to 1,100rpm, then it's fuel injected. If not, Carbed
September 13, 201014 yr I can help out with two pictures: The plastic is removed so you can see the knob in silver with the gas filter below of it. The positions are just readable when you remove the knob (or the plastic)... With plastic and in use (in front of some houses in switzerland): If the small end of the "arrow" points down, it is "normal use". If you turn it 180° you will use "reserve". Greetings, Martin
