the outlook looks ok..no bend or dent...but never on the enginne

yup machine price ....did not quote insurance....how much is the 3rdf party insurance roughly for 36 y o P-plate

 

Check the engine. Hear the sound whether like got anything lose. Or squeaking. Rev the engine a bit. You don't need to ram ram like what mechs like to do.

 

Your insurance confirm cheap one. Mine, 3rd party, 21yrs, 1.5 yrs exp, $571.

Hi there,

 

I own a Yamaha YBX, which is very similar to the YBR, just wondering where I can buy the YBR's rear pillion handle? The one with the luggage rack built into it? Or is anyone here willing to trade theirs with mine? It comes without the rack.

[danielburgess]

BTW any YBR rider in Bukit Panjang?

[n_e_o_o_n_e]

hi bros....i bought my YBR a month ago and it can only go 350-360km then go on reserves, unlike what my friends says 450-480km then hit reserves. Any though about this? and where can i go to check the bike? Which mechanic is good at this YBR? Thanks

Ybrians ,

 

Lets revive this thread with infos !!

[crazydj]

What do you want to know?

[NRI]

Clutch plates are cheap. You talking about the front forks or the rear spring suspension?

[NRI]

You may provide both back and front for information ....

 

Thanks once again

I dunno sia. I went to replace my forks. Just the 2 tubes, seal, triple tree, fork oil, costs me 300 plus.

 

The behind, i see no reason for you to touch it. Its just 2 springs and if it gets softer, just start to adjust the settings ah. Your stock settings are at 2.

 

There are 5 settings. 1 being the softest and 5 being the hardest. Default is 2. But when you change the settings, the bike handling will feel different.

 

If your front fork suspension dead, just go and service the forks ah. Just change fork oil i think can already. This kinda thing wont easily spoil unless you have accident.

Bike so cheap, don't bother. Just use a regular spark plug enough.

Pump your tires, check your chains and sprockets, your carb settings, air box/air filter.

Haha, agree with you. Iridium plugs for YBR 125 is like viagra for a 90 year old

[NRI]

[NRI]

Thanks everyone for your help !!
