I also have a YBR 125 and was out yesterday fighting the wind and the rain. I do agree that it is a very light bike and it does get affected badly by the winds but by far the best solution is to cut your speed a bit, the bike is much easier to handle in winds at lower speeds. It may mean you have an impatient car sitting on your tail but that's far better that than risking veering into the opposite carraigeway. I'm about to go out in the next 30 mins and there are 60mph gusts out there today, needless to say I'll be going a bit slower than normal Ride safe, and enjoy.

My YBR also refuses to go into 1st or 2nd from neutral occassionally, this is mostly because of coming to a halt quickly and kicking down through multiple gears without declutching whilst braking. I usually just let the clutch out a bit once stopped and you hear the gears clunk into place. Then simply pull the clutch in again and it should select 1st or 2nd without a problem.
