Hello all

I just need to know if anyone has tried putting new "bigger" tyres on their YZF-R125?

If so.............

What size did you go for?

(Standard front: 100/80/17)

(Standard rear: 130/70/17)

Was there suitable clearance?

How much did you pay for them?

(supplied and fitted)

Where is the cheapest place to order from?

Thanks all

Noooooooooo.....

The last thing that bike needs is bigger tyres, its handling is pretty good anyhow. Easily the equal of anything not in the supersports catagory.

Bigger tyres don't always mean more grip, most often they give less as they end up pinched on the rim. I doubt your spinning the tyre up exiting corners and unless your having problems with dragging your knee and exhaust which means riding with a lean of something like 50 degrees your not likely to run off the tyre. Bigger tyres also cause more drag (friction) robbing horsepower and slow the steering.

Of course if your posing......... (you will need a wider back wheel too).

Spend the cash on riding lessons, or some track instruction (makes a phenominal difference to your riding) not car park cobblers.

Oh and try introducing yourself too
