Scndrl wrote Seen a lot of these around where I live in the UK, for what they are especially the size they are quite rapid! Used to have a CBF-125 but now in love with Yamaha's YZFR-125 which I purchased about 8 months ago in a anodised red colour!

Hopefully move onto a Yamaha r6 once I've completed my test, always been a 'bike-kinda-guy'!

Ride safe and also, 'Dress to slide, not to ride'.


Yeah the MSXs are starting to become really popular now since quite alot big youtube motovloggers are buying them now (bought mine before they were popular )

Ridden both they bikes but not a huge fan of the yzf tbh i think it's just the position since its a sport bike (sort of lol)

Good luck for when the tests come mate, got my A2 tests at the end of July and start of August and hopefully will buy a Yamaha MT-07.

Also its 'Dress for the slide, not for the ride.'

For the 8 months I've been riding my YZFR I've noticed my back is slightly worse off. Usually ache's and especially when I first bought it could really notice my wrists aching and different posistioning.

Unfortunatley I currently have no alternate transport so It's my daily ride which has resulted in the condition decending and I'm starting to consider something with a better seating/posture to avoid long term healh effects from RSI or smiliar. Maybe I will have a look into the MSX's, local dealer not from from me.

Remember guys; "Dress for the slide, not for the ride" - cheers Andy ;)
