montys1 Posted March 15, 2017 Author Share Posted March 15, 2017 OK CBT passed today at 15:30, part 1 of the plan is down! Really enjoyed it, first time I've been on a bike in aeons and it felt sooooooooooo good! Learnt on a YBR125, it was ok. There was only me and a girl on the course and she wasn't getting it so bailed after lunch so just me and the instructor on the ride. Had a 2hr boner for the ride!Now sell car tomorrow and buy bike Friday!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoggs Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 congrats Remember on a bike you do need to stop more, especially when you're still learning so plan a few rest stops in that three hours! Keep alert and hydrated (but not with beer obviously ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picollus Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Great looking bike, did you go for any power parts or will that temptation get you later? *cough exhaust cough* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montys1 Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 Hi yep want for orange hand guards and the orange crash bars. Thought about the Akrapovic exhaust which has a weight saving but think adds more to the 390 not so much to the 125. I'll see how I get on. It's all I'm thinking about every minute at the moment!

Heh believe me I know the feeling Edit: should add that the exhaust adds a small much to the looks and noise to the 125 as the 390 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
