Howdy,

New biker with an old bike. Went for a YBR125 after a bit of looking about. Its a 58 plate and I've ridden it twice now! Braving the Baltic weather and taking it easy.

Only ever ridden 50cc scooters around central London before: a Vespa pk50 and a dodgy Chinese thing that topped out at 25mph.

Have no clue how to look after a bike but am keen to learn on the job. I have visions of one day coasting around the world on a massive cruiser with fat wheels, but one step at a time: I need to learn to ride.

Cheers.

    Thanks all. I suppose in the world of WW2 bobbers a 9 year old bike is nothing! 

    I guess a Haynes manual is the one and ebay is the place?
