Hi,

I'm 19 years old now and im considering purchasing my first 125cc bike, I was told if i was after reliability the honda cbr125r and the yamaha yzf-125 are the best for reliability and low maintenace (thats what i'm after) not very fussed about speed/power at the moment. Just need some pretty to get from A to B. What do you guys think? I saw the honda in real life yesterday and it seemed abit small. I'm abig lad i do alot of weight lifting 5'8 around 15.5/16 stones so i kinda need a bike thats abit bigger id look very silly on the honda. Is the yamaha a full sized bike?

Thanks!

RD

A CG125 (Honda) or YBR125 (Yamaha) would be cheaper to maintain. Both have excellent reliable engines and are very low maintenance. They should go on forever. You can get hold of a decent CG second hand at quite a decent price. Fairings cost a fortune if you have to replace them on a CBR and a YZF (after a drop or crash etc). Parts for CGs and YBR's are cheap and also quite easy to come by, more so for the CG.

If you want bigger, check out the Varadero (Honda). The YZF is quite big, but sit yourself down on a YBR or CG and see how you feel. I'm 6ft, 15 stone and people say my YBR suits me fine.

Regards,

Neil.

Hi,

On the yamaha yzf 125 and the honda cbr 125 would be a lot to insure at your age (same age as me). Your looking at about a £1000. whereas the CG125 will be about £300. If you pass your test go for something like a CBF250 or a restricted hornet.

You either live in a really bad inner city area where cars are set on fire and people are shot every day OR your really being ripped off.

It cost me £600 to be insured on a SV650 at 17 in an inner city post code that isnt exactly great, ungaraged etc. etc.

Did you not shop around? My first quotes on the SV were about £3000, I got it down to £600 - BIG DIFFERENCE.

Always, always, always, always shop around for insurance.

if i was in your position, i'ld go for the yzf! Looks hotter, is faster and.... looks hot Thumbs Up

You've got the dosh to spend, as said above, hunt around for different quotes, find the best three prices- and ask the highest two whether they will go lower than lowest quoted price...

YZF is better than the CBR mate, CBR looks a toy where you get plenty for the price tag on the yamaha.

if your a big lad, definitely get the Hyosung gtr125 if your just wanting to get a 125.

They feel like a bigger bike and are a hell of alot more comfier than the cbr.

So for me a bigger bike is cheap whereas the sporty 125's are a lot!

That's a rubbish list.

You not tried Carole Nash? EBike? (dare I say it) Bennetts? Norwich Union? Loads of others.

Ring, ring and ring again. All of them.

You should not be paying that kinda premium unless you live in Helmand Province.

Which postcode category are you in?

The Hyosung is as easy to source parts for as any otherbike. Don't know where you are located but Startight's in Leeds are a fantastic dealer, and spares supplier for them.

Yamaha's YZF will be easy for parts... it is a current model and widely available, If i was after a 125 again i'd have the yam or the aprilia RS125 but then again the RS is high maintainance and harder to get credit for.

As will the CBR, as they are both current jap bikes.

I Have just bought the CBR because of the hight of the handle bars, my mate has an RS, wich pisses all over my speed and is a much sportier ride, but........ wen you get to trafic lights you would be sorry you bought the Yamaha, my mate also works at a yamaha dealership so I tested it, because I must admit they do look much nicer, but once again in town, the position is realy uncomfortable. I also looked at the Hysoung and check out the Sachs XTC but I found the same problem with the handle bars being lower than my arse and too far away.

As for the insurance myn is £520 only £40 more than my old Suzuki en wich is insurance group 3 as oposed to the CBR wich is group 6 and Iv had a claim, as the suzuki was stolen and Im 18 and live in a council estate. So do the tesco price comparison, and I think MCE and Bike sure were cheapest, im with MCE.

Just my thoughts and research for you there, hope it helps Very Happy .

Hi,

On the yamaha yzf 125 and the honda cbr 125 would be a lot to insure at your age (same age as me). Your looking at about a £1000. whereas the CG125 will be about £300. If you pass your test go for something like a CBF250 or a restricted hornet.


You either live in a really bad inner city area where cars are set on fire and people are shot every day OR your really being ripped off.

It cost me £600 to be insured on a SV650 at 17 in an inner city post code that isnt exactly great, ungaraged etc. etc.

Did you not shop around? My first quotes on the SV were about £3000, I got it down to £600 - BIG DIFFERENCE.

Always, always, always, always shop around for insurance.


when i first bought my rs 125, i was also 19. it was 1k too. i live in hackney so my area is f or f*. because i only have a provisional and do not have kids or am married, it makes it worse. my friend who is 23, with 2 kids recently bought a cbr 125 and he got his insurance for £350.

so age, license, job, kids, marital staus etc makle a difference.

Yeah, paying £1000 for insurance on a CBR 125 is a load of crap!

I'm 20, the bike is arriving next week, and I've already got quotes like £385 for third party fire and theft and just over £550 for fully comp...

I agree with the above post about MCE, if you go onto thebikeinsurer.co.uk and take a look there are loads of decent prices they put up there with free legal cover.

Parked next to a YZF-R125 yesterday, very nice looking bike. And surprisingly big. Bigger than my 250 with half the cc and half the cylinders. All that weight must hamper performance a bit though.

The CBR is tiny, but it's really quite flickable. They've been around a bit longer as well, so parts will be more available. And no recalls or teething problems to worry about.
