Guest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 The new baby Yamaha Sports bike.............Yes its a 125 http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2051/2008yzfr125static03tcmkk3.jpgOver priced at £2999.99 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I think 3k is a little to minty for the market its aimed at- 17 year olds.I 'd say knock around £3/400 quid off to help with the insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Yeah im with you, a tad expensive, looks smart though for a 125, the designers at yamaha are bob on.Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keithg24 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I think its reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4ff Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 i think its a fair price.More bhp than the cbr.More reliable than the Aprilla RSIf i was 17 it would be on my shopping list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foz Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 i think its a great price!! the shadow i bought new 2 weeks ago (also 125) was £3200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4ff Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 not at the age of 17 you cant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foz Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 not at the age of 17 you cant vaid point, if like me Drewster is gonna keep ot for a couple of years, whats the harm? there is really no point in me getting a bigger bike till my full license matures 2 years after ive taken restricted access, so might aswell keep the 125 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I sat on one at the London MCN show. It was nice, but the price is overkill in comparison to the competition. There is also one thing that I can't get over with these 125 sport bikes - They are so bloody small!If you are going to have a 125 for ages and don't mind loosing a ton of money - go for it!

Foz Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 thats why i didnt get a sports bike lol i cant be doin with small bikes, its why i got a cruiser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korben Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Pretty much what others have said.Knock £500 of the price and I think they would sell more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I wudn't pay that for it, but it looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Looks nice and if i was 17 would defo want 1older and wiser now and way too expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4ff Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 CBR is only 3-400 cheaper.Aprilla is 300 more expensive.Its 2bhp over the cbr is worth the extra let alone how much better than the CBR it looks and isnt the RS over the leagal bhp limit anyway?

TC Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 whats the insurance going to be on that at 17 years oldNice bike though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queen bodecia Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 This conversation constantly comes up with our client. In my opinion new Yams are way overpriced in the UK, especially new models. However, everyone will realise this and they will be heavily discounted in a couple of months' time. Wait and watch... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 i think it's overpriced, but i'm not 17 does look good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
