Where did you learn you stuff about motorbikes? Trying to what I can about them so I can look after my YBR the best way I can. I know how to do a simple service and have cleaned the chain myself aswell with no trouble but wanna learn more.

I was always into car videos like drifting and turbo builds etc so i got a lot of general engine knowledge there, then i did marine engineering at college. I then built a motorised pushbike with a kit from ebay, and I bought a childrens 50cc quad bike. I eventually blew them both up and rebuilt them both and ive been blowing my own bikes up and destroying them ever since 😂😂😂 All my thrashing around and breaking shit taught me a lot about repairs as I’ve always been to cheap to pay someone else

Also Ive owned big bikes etc but nothing beats a YBR on the fun scale

Glad to see people putting out easy to understand vids for the amateurs to learn from. Kudos to you, but during the video I could see the state of your chain. It's had a hard winter mate, so give it a treat and drench it in some chain and drive lube (£4 from Toolstation) and check your tension. Great work getting it looking shipshape buddy!

Hi Brad I’ve been invited to a private race where we have to have a stock looking ybr125 and do a 12hour endurance race called race to crimson and was wondering if u have any suggestions to improve performance without loosing reliability

Hi I have an 08 YBR 125 custom, I can't find a custom exhaust so will buy a non-custom one.. But I dont know how different the bracket needs to be to fit onto custom? Should I buy a new one or can i get an adapter?
@BikerBrad723 жыл бұрын
Hi! Both the YBR and YBR Custom exhausts are interchangeable and fit on both models, despite how different the bikes look :)
@SlightlyDazed.3 жыл бұрын
If you want to fit a non custom exhaust you will also need the rear footpeg/exhaust piece off the non custom to mount it to
@maroo18493 жыл бұрын
@@SlightlyDazed. this is what i thought, the custom either needs the bit from the non-custom or to make a bespoke mounting adapter. You cant fit a standard exhaust onto a custom unfortunately

My old/original exhaust gasket's jammed in place, is that normal? I've just been 're using it.. Reckon I should try knocking it out with a screw driver next time I have to take the exhaust off? Cheers
@BikerBrad724 жыл бұрын
Yes mate would be a good idea to put a new one in. Not a big deal though, and if it seals and doesn’t leak/theres no black build up around it, then crack on and leave it! :)

What!? You are on a budget!? You paid how much for the exhaust and you can't afford £1 and 30 pence for a crucial gasket!?!?
