Nice looking lan card, love the chrome - can it be restrcited

Don't wanna threadjack but Lmbo2 - quick question, how do you find your Yamaha 125? I started riding a month ago on a chinese 125 and apart from the fact that I've been told they'll turn to rust if you so much as breathe on them, it doesn't feel much different from the Suzuki CG125 I passed my CBT in - slow and tedious! Are all 125s like this or are you pretty happy with yours? I'm lucky if I hit 60 in mine (which I think is pretty crucial on a dual carriageway!) and as soon as it hits a sligh gradient it slows to a crawl. I don't know if it makes a difference but I'm about 18 stone. Is it just coz I'm lardy?!

To be honest weight, and size can make a huge difference on a 125.

I could touch 70 on my CG125, however when a slightly heavier friend rode it struggled with 65.

Oh and I used to have to down gear for gradients to maintain speed all of the time.

There are good chinese bikes out there, hopefully yours will turn out to be one of them.

Threadlock or superglue is your friend.

Set aside some time and go over it, if it is loose glue it in place.
