    Can anyone recommend a good face mask for the cold weather. I had one that I bought from Rivetts of London who I believe have gone bust and I can't find the damn thing...

    I am looking to Insure my Yamaha YZF-R125 and have just had my renewal from Bennetts for £170 fully comp protected with 7 years no claims and I have a full bike licence... I have just done a comparison quote with The Bike Insurer and as always with comparison sites it has come up with plenty of companies I have never heard of as Brokers, but no the insure companies ie. Equity Red Star. Has anyone heard of aQuote as they have offered £125 with legal protection (£100,000. Other than that anyone recommend anywhere else that I can get a quote please?

    It didn't say how many hours labour, but I can't imagine it being much. I had to use them as the bike is still under warranty...

    I have just paid £160 to have my bike serviced from the main dealer. When you look at the breakdown on the bill I paid £118 just in labour... It was it's 3500 mile service. How can they justify that!!!!!!

    Don't know why, but when I searched I only found 2... I think I will buy one of these... Cheers

    I looked on there and they only had 2 and where about £20 if I remember. It has to fit a 125...

    Anyone know where to get one of these from please? Seen them on eBay for about £23.00

    What is the recommended period for having an R125 serviced. I have had it's 1st service done, but wondered when the next was due or at least recommended? Cheers

    I have used the AC 90 as recommended by a friend and it was great. He even gave me a can so a bonus....

    I have been told about a product called AC 90, has anyone used this before? http://www.bazaarbuilder.com/cgi-bin/insto...rchant=instoneb

    Cheers I will give it a go tomorrow... Is there a product you can buy off the shelf?
  16. Kirkie replied to Kirkie's post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    I can see this costing me a lot of money then as I don't have one of them either...

    Ha Ha. I wasn't going to lube the brakes, just wanted the rust off..... Can the chain be lubed without taking it off?
  18. Kirkie posted a post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    What is the best thing to lubricate a Rusty Chain and Brake Discs? This has been caused from excessive washing. Also what is the best thing to prevent this from happening again?

    Well don't keep it to yourself, what have you done......
  20. Kirkie replied to g-funk's post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    Is yours de restricted? As I weigh the same and the fastest I have had is about 73mph....
  21. Kirkie replied to Kirkie's post in a topic in Naked
    I have booked it in.....
  22. Kirkie replied to Kirkie's post in a topic in Naked
    The bike is less than 6 months old so I have basically done not much to it. I checked the oil and it is still fine and as for the clutch it feels ok. I did find that on a few occasions when I started it it was very 'spluterry', but I put this down to the cold weather as it had been outside for several hours and it was 3am.....

    I have noticed in the last few days that I am struggling to get my R125 over 63mph and that is at 80,000 revs in top gear. I can usually get 73mph out of it. Is anyone else having or had a similar problem and can anyone think of what the problem may be before I get it checked out?
