Great advice here!

No, I've always found it to be okay

They're off Amazon: amzn.to/3LHPgDL

@@NathRides thankyou! Is the width of the mirrors 30cm? I see alot of them really small, around 20cm width.

Ay well done mate!

Ay nice mate! Enjoy!

Ay welcome back! Hows it going for you?

@@NathRides aha yeah not too bad thanks. Got my first bike recently, it’s an Aprilia rs50 and filmed my first motovlog today and spent 5 hours editing and learning how to use premiere pro 😅 hopefully going to upload it tomorrow morning. Just testing with setups atm. But yeah it’s been a while, you’d just got ur cbr when I last saw.

Send me your video when its done :)

It always started perfectly

Aslong as its maintained absolutely fine! Problems arise when you start modifying the bike, an exhaust on my cb125 adds 2 wheel hp, a remap and filter ontop turns a 15bhp bike into 20hp, might sound great but a single cylinder 4 stroke won't like hitting the limiter continuously for miles, stock the bike will handle it fine

@@johnjackson2349 good to know. Mines brand new 24 plate. As long as I get all the services done everything should be sweet. Not going to mod anything on it....was just curious back then as you're pretty much always on the limiter lol

Twistys are fun

Yeah, you need at least A1 for this

I'm not sure that's worth it, I think the biggest limitation is the engine size itself :)

@@NathRides not sure 🤔 just would be a bit nicer to be faster than the trucks 70mph would be fine for me. My bike I bought for its classic looks but no other engine options available sadly. Which I am cool with but currently stick to back roads

​@@JayDutch-UK-MK trouble with changing sprockets is you may find the engine falls out of its sweet spot, I've gone into a strong headwind and while my bike normally sits at 70mph fine, I was reduced to 56mph! Longer gearing would make this far worse

@@johnjackson2349 yes maybe 🤔 wonder how many people have tried to tweak it rather that just buy a new bike. I know this wind you speak of, I wonder the person following must think 🧐 why is this person slowing down. Whereas the rider is patting the tank, Going come on you can make it my metal horse 🐴

@@JayDutch-UK-MK my guess is most people under 20y old tweak their bikes, you cab gain easy power with an exhaust then the longer gearing makes more sense, for me on a 125cc you spend so much time at full throttle the noise would drive me mad lol

That's true, some motorways even have 6 lanes

@@NathRides yes only real difference is green and blue signs. Even hard shoulder has disappeared. Can’t see why they waste money on more expensive motorways. Just improve A Road standard, and maybe create a C class for those country roads and single tracks so trucks can avoid them and leave them for bikers

@@JayDutch-UK-MK you say sign colour but take the a556 that has blue distance posts despite having green direction signs.

@@JayDutch-UK-MK motorways are always dual carriageway (so oncoming traffic is separated from you by a central reservation and barriers), they don't have sharp bends, they have slip roads on and off, usually with plenty of room to speed up when joining or slow down when leaving, and the entry/exit is only ever on the left lane (not counting where 2 motorways merge where one will be on the right of course, but then you are already travelling at speed). A-roads could be single or dual carriageway, can have junctions joining at any angle and on both sides, often with no space to get up to speed when joining or slow down when exiting, you might need to cross the central reservation on a dual carriageway when joining or leaving, and there could be roundabouts in the road. National speed limit is the same for bikes and cars on motorways and dual carriageway A-roads, and both could have lower speed limits in places. Motorways are therefore easier and safer than A-roads. It baffles me why learners are allowed on A-roads but not motorways, especially if they already have a full licence in another category and can ride/drive on the motorway when using that vehicle.

@@neilp1885 not true, aston expressway in birmingham has no central at all

I'll look into this mate, thank you! All my 125ccs in the past were like it where gear 6 is more of a cruising gear at higher speed haha. I know the bike is all good so maybe a new sprockets with more teeth? :)

@@NathRides My old duke 125 6th gear was weaker than 5th, only ever used it down hills. My 6th gear is useless on my Fazer because i barely ever get enough road to reach it lol

@@Masher8559 don't you just put the fazer in 6th just to lower the rpm. I would imagine 50mph was OK in 6th
