Dual Purpose

Wonderful Bike :)

Advantages: With current fuel prices, this bike will easily take me 200 miles on £6-7.
Disadvantages: None.

...Personally I think that the Yamaha YBR 125cc is a very good looking and well designed bike, it is also quite a big bike, so it doesn't really look like a little 125, which is a good thing. Although this does not effect the performance. I have so far been 70mph on this bike, and it gets there quite fast. The good thing is that it doesn't sound like its going to explode after hitting 50mph, like most The Yamaha YBR 125cc is a very comfortable bike ...
...old moped.. incredible. The Yamaha YBR 125 is very good value for money, i purchased this bike for £2000 with free insurance and free RAC roadside cover. This bike has a rev counter, and a fuel gauge. It is also a fuel injection bike, which means it starts first time, every time, (which it definitely does) using the electric start, although it has a kick-start, just incase!. *Update, sorry i forgot to add that this bike is also good up hills, I can ...

Review of Yamaha YBR 125

Very good bike.

Advantages: Torque, comfortable, good looks.
Disadvantages: Nothing.

...The bike rides well, Yamaha usually produce good, smooth suspension and this bike is no exception. Despite having a slightly stiff frame the bike does handle very well. Brakes are alright, nothing amazing, but that's to be expected on a stock 125 - they do the job! Lights are good, not blinding but I happily ride the bike at night. I feel that I should point out the lack of rev counter and kick start; this makes no difference to me at all but could ...
...parts are to get, as Yamaha are one of the big companies there parts are pretty cheap. Fixing most things on a 2stroke is relatively easy but the DT is very open which saves time and effort. Overall feelings on the bike are very good, easily has enough power to keep with cars on main roads, very comfortable and good ride, impressive economy and finally, in my opinion, the bike looks good! Much better than those tacky superbike impressions that everyone ...

Review of Yamaha DT125

Perfect learner bike!

Advantages: Perfect learner bike!
Disadvantages: Not very much power

I bought one of these bike at the age of 17, ready to lean on and go for my bike test. This bike without and doubt is one of the easiest 125cc motorbikes to ride with a low seat height and very comfortable rider position. The bike is not the most powerfull 125cc, but as a first bike power is your last need! This bike sailed me through my test and now i have a big bike! I think this bike is perfect for a lady or a person of smaller build. My own bike ...

Review of Yamaha SR125

♥A WHEELIE GOOD BIKE♥

Advantages: Can be ridden both on and off road
Disadvantages: She kicks you in the shin

...Christmas morning. I had a Yamaha XT350 delivered as a Christmas present for my husband Pete. As he opened the front door I knew for certain that he had no idea what to expect. To his surprise parked on the road in front of our door was a lovely Yamaha XT350 almost completely decorated with balloons, set off with the final touch of a huge red ribbon wrapped around the handlebars. I could see from his glistening eyes that he was pretty choked up as ...
...though. The Yamaha XT350 is a Dual Purpose Bike with a four-stroke single engine. For those that have no knowledge of these terms I will give a brief explanation. A dual bike is specifically designed for both on and off road riding. On both tarmac and in fields/lanes and can climb over obstacles. A single engine is the most basic of the engines with only 1 spark plug .one cylinder and one piston. A single engine does not produce many revolutions ...

Review of Yamaha XT350

Around town bike pulls good wheelies!

Advantages: Very nimble in traffic, comfortable seating position
Disadvantages: Slow, clunky gearchange

I purchased my XT600 new in 2002, and I'm afraid that it only comes out of the garage in dry weather. If you are looking for a fast thrill machine then don't buy one of these, if, however you want a very dependable bike for commuting to the office then this is the bike for you. Very easy to handle in the long traffic queues, there is no arm ache due to the upright riding position. Not the fastest bike but there are 600cc's if you need them. Good ...
