your honesty is greater than cbr

even tho i ride a cbr, i like the way the yzf looks very much. If there wasn't the cbr, i definitly would have taken the yzf. Both are very nice biked! :D

+Skycrash Exactly! Just like the 600's and the 1000's!

the CBR 125r has come a long way from its jc34 days. those things had carbs (07 onward fuel injection) and back then the yzf was the faster bike in stock conditions. its nice to see the tide has shifted with the jc50. i love riding my friends 2014 one. its so smooth and on a windy day with slight uphill it can manage 120kmh easy on a highway, where as my 2006 strugles to keep 100. the only bad thing i think is that the sound aint nearly as sweet if u only throw a slipon on it vs my bolton which sounds like a full exhaust. the slipon of the jc50 sounds pretty stock and heats a ton. (arrow street thunder dark alu)

I have the older shape cbr and it pulls away from the r125 was well surprised

Helsby going towards Elton and ellesmere port haha, I'll be driving my bus there in a bit 😅

the old 2-cycle machines were so much moar fun. I had CB125C (4-Cycle 2 Cyl parallel), Rothman NSR125 (2-Cycle 1 Cyl), Last NSR125 with 2-Cycle, Newest CB125C (4-Cycle V-Twin). But my Black NSR was the beast. Well, now i got my VT1100C since many (~20) Years. Was love at first sight =) Big 4 Cyls would be my death xD

Have you thought of getting a yamaha MT250 as your next bike its not bad for a 250

I beg differ, my brother doesnt like to race but his friend does, and whenever I see them two race the YZF always wins...?

I completely agree, yours looks more like a proper bike where as the CBR125 almost looks toy like. It's the same when you compare say the CB125 against the MT125, both naked bikes but the MT gives a much bigger bike feel.

take that exhaust off and put standard one on then give him another go

Are you sure that it is a cbr125 and not a 250?

My guess is he had something on the giving him better acceleration or power I.e sprocket change or big bore kit as 2 of my friends have relatively new CBR's and I consistently beat them almost every time

Could have, but he still had the stock exhaust on and other stock things. But yeah maybe he just wanted more power than better looks!

It was very close though? I guess your height might increase a bit of wind resistance and if you weight more then it will have more of an effect on performance as well. Take care mate, Mark

I didn't catch what year the cbr was, you will find some pre 07 carb model bikes are not as restricted as the fuel injected bikes, ive got an 02 Honda varadero 125 with a twin carb, just a few mods to make it a bit more responsive, I up jetted it put a leo vince exhaust system on it, made the air intake a bit bigger to compensate for the exhaust so it breaths better and some iridium plugs, its made a little difference, the varadero is most probably the heaviest 125 out there, its 169 kg wet which is only 15kg lighter than an mt-750, so even with the extra torque you get from the v-twin engine it's sluggish on acceleration but from 45-70 it will reel in most 125,s because that's where all the torque is and it tops out at 76mph, so your bike will out accelerate it but mine will start fighting back at around 45 til it tops out, but other bikes like the ybr 125 it will just eat them like yours will lol,

I'm just gonna chip in and say this. If you're looking for something that you want to for speed go for the "faster" 125s (CBR, YZF, MT125. Basically ones that are the full 11kw) or if you're like me and commute on one go for the CBF 125 or the YBF 125 as they're very efficient on fuel. I can't tell you from me using a cbf that I can get 250 miles on £6, £7 (depending on how fast you're going)

But neither was the guy on the CBR, so I thought I'd look like a complete fruit if I was tucked in and he wasn't. Plus, it just goes to show that the CBR is quicker because I was using the bikes full power, whereas the CBR guy was riding one handed, without a care in the world. Lets face it, the CBR is quicker than my Yamaha, but in all honesty I would take the better looking and slightly slower 125 machine any day! :)

Doesn't make much difference when you move onto 600cc+ but yeah 125cc bikes tye smaller the better less wind on ya. Personally.... I'm a suzuki man always will be but..... cbr or yzf...... cbr 4tw.
