    Hopefully this is the right section? Evening everyone. Purchased a new bike and picking it up next week. Can anyone recomend any cheap but good quality clothing please? Ideal for traverling back and forth work about 60 mile roundtrip. Don't really want to wear full leathers - any ideas welcomed please. Cheers in advance
  2. Thank you - "Wheels".
  3. Hi - Steve from East of England. Bought a new YBR 125cc today, picking it up sometime next week. Bought a bike to try and save money due to the high fuel prices. Misses not to happy - but there we go :-) Had a few bikes between 16 and 18 and have always wanted one ever since. If any of you could help me with a few questions it would be greatly appreciated please;- 1. Dealer states bike will do in excess of 100mpg - is this true? 2. Been advised to change the dip and main beam bulbs? 3. Advised to change tyres to Michelin something or other - better grip in wet? 4. Another person said to change the spark plugs to NGK - CR6HSA, this will not only increase perfomance (not interested in that) but mainly MPG by 10 - 15%.
  4. Evening, Picking up my new bike next week - can't wait :-) Yamaha YBR 125. Go to re-take my CBT, as it expired when I was 18 - lol. Now I am 33. Couple of questions if I may? 1. Dealer states bike will do in excess of 100mpg - is this true? 2. Been advised to change the dip and main beam bulbs? 3. Advised to change tyres to Michelin something or other - better grip in wet? 4. Another person said to change the spark plugs to NGK - CR6HSA, this will not only increase perfomance (not interested in that) but mainly MPG by 10 - 15%. Can anyone advise if the above is correct?
