Working thru your vids mate....

Congrats Shadow, You must have saved a few quid avoiding Ride on prices Also.....time to remove the 125 from your username Al

I used ride on myself for the CBT. I find them a little pricey, eg £999 for 23 hour DAS training, I think 17 hours is £720. I also seen that Daytona, it looks amazing, I popped in the other day, I quite fancy the white MT 07 in white, the seat height suits me better Al I’m shopping around at the moment for DAS training, also I’ve heard the shieldhall test centre are tough. Al

Congrats shadow. What school in Glasgow did you use, and can you recommend them ?. Are you going out to buy a bigger bike or sticking with the 125 a bit longer ? Al

Page 3 shows the sizing for anyone interested. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/316690/motorcycle-manoeuvring-area-multi-purpose-test-centre.pdf Al.

I’ve been hunting for possible locations also !. Could someone post up the sizing for all the manoeuvres used in the mod 1 ?. U turn width, slalom and figure of 8, I think I’ll be borrowing my lads football cones Al.

Hi Where did you do your training ? Where do you recommend ?, who to steer clear off ?. Anyone know any training instructors to get some more riding time in ? I really want more ride time under my belt, building confidence and preparing for future DAS training. Glasgow or surrounding areas would be fine. Alan.

Hi Can anyone recommend a storage box to suit the MT 125 ? While I’m here, I would also like hand guards, front screen. Any good sources out there without going direct to Yam ? Al

I need to get out on my bike more. Had my cbt for 1 year, I struggle for babysitters and work life. Would like to do m y mod 1 and 2 before my cbt expires. Any Glasgow ride outs ? Al

I’m a complete novice with cbt only. I’ve watched this quite a few times now, really starting to under stand the points he makes. Especially the SR’s, each time I watch it I learn a new tip on riding technique. Anybody recommend any other YouTube sites for learning ? Al.

Anybody ?

I’ll ask dealer if they will fix this free ? Still need to buy a paddock stand though, I’m going to need it. Cheers for all the help lads Al.

I have searched on rim and valve. Soapy liquid. Tiny bubbling on rim edge.

I spoke with the “reputable dealer”, sorry we won’t cover this, but book yourself in for repair/replacement......thanks but no thanks. I think that customer service is poor, they could of offered a discount at least. I’m now looking for a local tyre repair garage that don’t need the wheel taken off as I don’t have a paddock stand. Tbh .... I never expected the dealer to say they would fix it free but I’m convinced this was an existing fault before I picked bike up. I’ve probably done 10 miles since I bought it. At least I know where not to go when I’m upgrading or looking for accessories. Al

I might just get a flexi tub with water and drop back end in with valve submerged. Tyre looks good as I’ve hardly used the bike since I’ve had it for 2 weeks. Cheers Al

There was zero pressure in the back tyre. I pumped up to 29psi this morning, already down to about 26psi. I’ll need to get it checked for leaks, no obvious nails in rubber etc. Many thanks for the info guys. Al.

Ok I’ll google tyre pressures for the bike and try this first. If not then I’ll visit the dealer whom I bought it from. Many thanks for your help Al

I’m new to biking. It’s a 17 plate with only 350 miles, I’m 2nd owner. Seems to wiggle randomly at about 40. I bought from a reputable dealer recently, they checked everything I assume before giving me it. Cheers Al

Hi My bike feels like the back wheel is loose, I feel as if the back end is twitchy. Wheel nuts are tight, can anyone suggest anything to check ? Alan.

What are the helmet mounting options ? Anyone got the hero 4 ? I’m thinking chin or side of helmet mount ? my helmet is the spada renagade. Anyone give any pointers ? Cheers Al.

Did I see you in Hillington (Glasgow) today ? Al.

I’m new on a 125. Looking to organise a ride out. I’m in Clydebank area looking for other riders in the area to get some more road experience. We should be making maximum use of the great weather. Post up with any suggestions that suit you. Maybe a midweek and/or weekend. Be good to get a few peoples ideas. Alan

I was out earlier for a while. Just getting more road experience. Absolutely boiling hot with my gear on How bout you, you going out daily ? Al
