Hey buddy. Do you think it made any changes to the power of the bike when you had the new exhaust? And also the comfort in long journeys. Is it good?

What about service intervals? What miles and how much do they cost? I bought a cb125f and found that I needed really frequent service intervals at a cost of about £100 a pop.

Hi bud, enjoyed the videos, what is it like on steep hills? Does it lose loads of what power it has? Thanx..

@BigBenMotoVlogsUK

6 жыл бұрын

Thank you! Short steep hills are fine as it has plenty of torque in lower rpm but on long steep hills the power dips and dips, so you have to keep shifting down gears

Hey buddy, just put my deposit down for a MT-125 2015 model in the same colour. Are there any parts of the 2015 model I should look out for as in wear and tear?

Hi mate just picked up one last week. Did you White wall the tires?? and where's the best place to get a new exhaust. Your sounds awesome. Thanks 👍👍

@BigBenMotoVlogsUK

Good choice! Yeah just filled it in with a tyre pen, simple and cheap but goes well with the look. This exhaust is a cheap universal one from china, only £40 but you need to cut the stock muffler off. If you want to get a full exhaust system, look on ebay for black widow, currently the cheapest system you can get with an amazing sound! Thank you

Very good video. I'm saving up for this bike as I have my CBT on Saturday. Was going to go for a CBR 2007 for my first but then seen this.. at the min I've seen them for 2500 now on private selling sites.. well worth the extra 1k! Can I ask what is the insurance and tax like in the first year on the road.. I'm 25. Cheers Tim

Hi, I have an MT125 myself and I'm getting pretty bored of the sound from the stock exhaust so I checked out your Akrapovic Universal Exhaust however you said your exhaust cost £50 yet I can only find them for £350? Did you do a video on this exhaust?

@BigBenMotoVlogsUK

Firo Menace Just search for "Universal exhaust" on eBay and plenty should come up with the same design, I was just lucky that the seller included an akrapovic sticker with mine! 😃 Yes I did do a video on the exhaust, used it for a while as well

Just swapped my 650 kawaski for one of these . Due in two days, You don't need a big bike unless you plan riding very long distances.n They big ones use loads of juice and you are always filling up, unlioke the 125 Duke I had pre test. Back to 125s for me ,more fun ,much cheaper.

If you press the brake to hard with abs, it will release and reapply the brake to stop the skid, its a weird feeling :P With a non-abs, the rear wheel can lock up easy if you press hard. You could probably lock it up with difficulty

+tomh0124 It is tall, the seat is higher than the mt07! You can get a lowering kit from eBay if needed. I'm 5'10, i can nearly flat foot both feet but not comfortable so i'm on the front of my foot instead. I would say around 6'0 and they should be fine

+tomh0124 You should be ok but it would be easier with the kit. Looking on ebay, it a 30min job and you only need basic tools, sounds pretty simple. It lowers the ride height from 810mm to 780mm. It shouldn't change the way the bike preforms at all, its a recommend modification and has great reviews.
