Yamaha YBR125 'naked' for sale.
 
ybr125
2007/07, silver, 21000-ish miles, tested until June next year. It is a fuel injection model so it starts up instantly on the button and is very low
maintenance.
It was a non-runner when I bought it in late-May this year. I replaced the fuel pump which got it going - apparently 'the only thing that goes
wrong with these bikes'. I have done just over 1000 miles on it this summer learning to ride and it has not missed a beat other than needing a
new battery (fitted this evening!). It will sit comfortably at 50 even with my fat arse on it (19 stone, 6'4" and can get to 60 if you
really try. Mileage will go up as it is still in use whilst the weather holds out.
Had new exhaust and two new tyres just before I bought it. The exhaust is blowing a little at the head but one stud is snapped off and the other the
head is stripped so I have just left it alone. Up to you if you decide to fix it or just ignore it like I have done!
It was stolen and recovered in December 2013 which resulted in a cat C due to ignition damage. No VIC check needed for a bike and I have the log book
in hand (in my name) so no problem there.
10 previous owners. Sounds like a lot, but not uncommon for a 125. Looking at the MOT history it looks like the first owner (or was it the first
two?) did most of the miles then I guess it has been a string of learners after that.
Got plenty of marks and scratches, seat cover is slightly frayed where it rubs on the tank at the front. Few rust spots especially on the chrome.
I'm making it sound bad by being absolutely honest, but in fact it has been the perfect learner bike for me. Easy to ride, absolutely reliable,
cheap and already has a few war wounds such that you are not going to be precious about it but still tidy enough that you won't be embarrassed
turning up at the local bike night.
Only selling because I have my test in a couple of weeks and have ordered it's bigger sister. For this reason I ideally want to keep it until
20th August, or maybe a little longer if I don't pass, but if you turn up with cash and want to take it away there and then I would probably let
it go.
£775 to a LocostBuilder. Will be starting it at £850 on eBay if it hasn't sold by the time I pass.
Could possibly deliver a short distance if you can give me a lift home. Alternatively my local hire place has a bike trailer so could go a longer
distance if you pay for the diesel and the hire.
Cheers, Chris
