BeardedBerns Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Hey all. Just thought I'd quickly introduce myself. I bought a 2011 YBR125 about 3 weeks ago with roughly 3500 miles on, and promptly named her Sylvia. I love her, apart from wishing she would do 5 - 10 mph faster in 5th. With her having done 3500 miles I'm gonna also have to go for a decent service, even though I have just changed the oil myself. I would like to pass her off to my son in about 4 or 5 years time when he's old enough, so I want to look after her properly. Hope to join in to the chat on here.

Moderator Cynic Posted March 12, 2017 Moderator Share Posted March 12, 2017 Welcome, don't worry about the 5-10mph. Whatever bike you have from now till the day you hang your gloves up will not be quick enough in a straight line. Just find a twistier route, 50mph round a 40mph bend will get any pulse going. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Cynic Posted March 12, 2017 Moderator Share Posted March 12, 2017 True, one of the members on here has an SR125 that has done well over 70, with witnesses. Got a LOT of miles on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
