Thanks for the reply, sounds very positive to me , definately think its the right decision, there doesnt seem to be bad reviews about the bike, for what it is, it does the job. Will save me a fortune on fuel aswell so im tempted to buy one brand new. Regards Sam

Hello all, Just was interested in advise really, Im 31, been driving for 14 years, and have decided its about time I got my arse into gear and get my CBT out the way then maybe full bike license in a 6months. I love the open air, and im thinking Biking could possibly pull me away abit from my passion in cars. Now ive taken a big interest in the Yamaha YBR 125, and mainly id like to use it for pottering about, getting into town etc, but also will do a few journeys on nice days on the country lane twisties. For anyone that owns one of these or maybe 125 in general, how does a 125 fair up as an all round Bike? I know its not fast at all, but im more at the moment wanting to get good road sense on a Bike and obviuosly to build up my confidense then perhaps decide later on I want something with more guts. Can 125`s cruise at 55-60 or is that absolutely pushing it? Also does anyone here ride long journeys on a 125? Im guessing a big issue would be getting stuck behind a lorry and not having the power to shoot past. Any thoughts would be greatly apprecited Kind Regards Sam
