General Comments

Yamaha YBR125 is an excellent commuter bike. I've done 6000 miles in 8 months without a fault. Starts first time, cruises at 60mph, does 180 miles on about £8 (at 90p per litre). Won't win any speed or style prizes, but if you want the cheapest most reliable way to get around with an engine under you, then this is the bike. Look after it (lube chain, change oil every 2000 miles, use anti-corrosion spray and clean it) and it will look after you. So much better value that the cheap Chinese bikes that cost less, but are covered in rust after 1000 miles.
