Title: Throwing in the towel Post by: MrJoshua on July 03, 2008, 01:32:46 PM Well, the Yamaha FZ6 has been put up for sale. I bought it 12 months ago and have never ridden it (due to failing my "big bike" test, twice).
I've decided I don't need (or want) anything fast on 2-wheels and that a nice 125 will be fine for commuting and having a bit of fun. So, once the big bike goes, I'll also sell my Yamaha YBR125 and I'm thinking this Supermoto 125 will tick some boxes: (http://carad.ebayimg.com/i18/01/a/000/78/49/c8f5_4.JPG) British company, British design, Taiwanese parts, made in China. Title: Re: Throwing in the towel Post by: attackrabbit on July 03, 2008, 09:12:59 PM Sorry to hear about the FZ6 man. Not going 10,000 miles an hour isn't necessarily a bad thing :). My bike says it'll do 150, I doubt I'll ever take it over 75.
That's a crazy lookin' bike. I bet it gets insane gas mileage. The perfect commuter. Title: Re: Throwing in the towel Post by: VEExDUB on July 03, 2008, 10:22:29 PM ive always wanted to try one of thems. good stuff, ride safe.

Title: Re: Throwing in the towel Post by: MrJoshua on July 05, 2008, 04:41:02 AM Went and bought it this morning!
Part exchanged my YBR125 - they gave me £650 for it, so I've only lost £150 in almost a year of owning it... Shame I can't say the same for my FZ6, but hey ho. So, it should be getting delivered on Thursday next week... I'm pretty excited. It sounds super cool for a 125, nice deep exhaust note!
