And I bought one and pick it up next month. Thanks man
I've got exactly same bike 19 reg & I've travelled from grimsby to Nottingham and back just over a tank full of petrol and I too recommend this kawasaki ninja to anyone just starting out on a bike
Can’t wait to start my motorcycle journey just need to convince my mum 😂🥲

It's better to get it first, and tell her later. That's my strategy 😂😂😂
great review mate, cheers was between this and the duke for me, but with the lack of supply for 125s right now, probably going with this as i can get it a few months earlier. Cant wait aha
Thanks so much for this. One of my biggest worries about getting a 125 is my weight. Im also about 18 stone and was worried it wouldnt do well under my weight. But 50/60mph is enough for me while i build up my experience. Now lets just hope my stomach doesnt get in the way too much
You are so right about getting it into 1st gear. I have the exact same bike and thought it was a problem with my bike.
This was an amazing review, im currently 16 and i have a 50cc scooter and im planning on getting a 125 for my 17th. This ninja ticked all my boxes in what im looking for in a small engine sport bike. Thank you

If you havent got one yet you may want to start looking at them. Ive recently bought one from a kawasaki dealership and the dealer said that theirs a shortage of a certain part so they arent maiing anymore 125cc bikes this year

Hi mate, just wondering how tall you are? I'm 6'2 and unable to sit on any because of bloody covid, so trying to see how they fit. Keen on the looks of this, narrowed it down to a few (RC, YZF, Aprilia and this) - GSX-R is too small! Any help is much appreciated. Great vid!

Im 6ft but i find the riding stance a little cramped but i think its cus my beer belly gets in the way! I have the high-seat installed but didnt make much difference. Would highly reccomend you sit on one first but its not a bike a tall person can ride for hours on end.

It depends on the rider. I'm pretty heavy at 20 stone and 6ft but still found it manageable and I'm sure for a lighter rider it would be fine.
Hallo, may I ask how much is the insurance cost for only holding a CBT, and is there any recommended insurance company? I just want to have a reference. Thanks

@@bennyg-rides Honestly, out of the Ninja and the Yam, just go for the one you like the look of the best, and whichever one you can find the best deal on as they will ride and deliver the small amount of power they have almost identically. If you are a larger rider like myself however don't expect them to be particularly comfortable bikes compared with the naked 125 offerings. Kinda wish I went for the MT-125 in hindsight.

If you are planning on riding longer distances ide go duke, but I suspect the seating position of the ninja makes it more sporty for the twisties!

What is rev matching?

Increasing the revs or decreasing the revs of the engine to match the speed of the bike or car to the gear you are in.

Wait is the annual cost of maintenance around 2k on this bike?!
@EddCroucher
Жыл бұрын
Naa way less, if you do it yourself basics like oil and filter will be around £50, but tyres and brake discs will be a bit more expensive of course. Ide say put a few hundred aside each year for maintenance which will allow you to have extra for tyres, brakes and the like every other year.
