bippo Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Hey all! Here are a few pictures of my first bike. I bought it brand new about 2 weeks ago, and I'm already getting close to taking it back in for it's first 600 mile service! As 125's go, for the price this is a superb bike. The biggest issue I have with it is comfort levels on a long ride - it sends my ass to sleep! But hey, that's hardly the end of the world is it.
Moderator Airhead Posted September 8, 2012 Moderator Posted September 8, 2012 Nice one bippo I'd proud to own one of those too, bet its a fantastic commutor as well, you can keep the sport bike look for me thats just great i'd investigate a gel seat cover or something for the longer rides
Moderator Cynic Posted September 8, 2012 Moderator Posted September 8, 2012 Everybody suffers from numb arse on mbike you would think with all the tech on a bike they would have it better. Nice bike by the way.
paulrever Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Lovely Bippo, I love it in black. I have a 2007 YBR which I did a few epic journeys on, I know what ya mean about the 'Numb bum' thing. Also, such a good wee bike I didn't want to sell it when I moved up to 600cc, I still use it for short comutes. Enjoy, Amigo!
Grouch Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 I seem to see a lot of YBR's on the roads now, they are very popular bikes. Nice YBR mate.

I'm just getting some more practise in and then I'll start using her for commutes. On that note, I think I will look into a gel seat cover as I'll be covering 80 miles a day!

Glad to hear it - I can see myself taking on a few epic journey's too, it's much more fun than the car. In fact, I do have plans to travel back to my parents on A roads instead of the M1 - around 160 miles which I think will be good fun.
