Hey everyone, I've added some bits onto my CBR My Exhause Heated Grips New indicators Exhaust again Exhaust Baffle in Exhaust Baffle out ENJOY
It dont really matter what people think tbh its your bike you do what you want with it ,I like the exhaust you have on it
where did you get it from, how much was it , does it add any more power and will the carb need re jetting ??
Lol I sense sarcasm lol. Exhaust £224 supplied and fitted. Indicaters £40 supplied and fitter and heated grips bout £80 supplied and fitted. I have noticed improvemt on speed
sounds good with that pipe, they sound nice if you take the silencer off, i really need to get a recording of my vf, my pipes are homemade! i like that model cbr, they are nice and skinny and light, the newer ones are a little bigger
my bad then, Sorry. It's worth getting. the phone mic don't pick it up to well. I'll put a better one up soon. but they are worth getting
What sort of speed will a CBR do ? I remember the average leaner legal two stroke doing about 75ish ( more with tuning). My lad will move upto a 125 and the CBR was one of the bikes he liked the look of as it will be a fairly long term thing I want something useable for him.
they are all restricted to 15hp, unless you get a 2t they are all about the same really. (i work as a motorcycle mechanic and ride a lot of bikes) the rs125 is probably the fastest 125, rotax 122 motor, unrestricted 30 odd hp, although a 125 2t runner will be 20 odd hp with a decent variator and pipe. 80mph is about the most you will get out a 4 stroke 125 really
Thanks Scubabiker, I had no idea the power output for learner legal 125's was 15hp I thought it was still stuck at 12hp. I had memories of the 125 four strokes struggling to do 60-65 on a very long road. CB125 twins and the old CG125 being some of the four strokes about when I last had a small bike.As he wants to pass his test on the 125 to allow him a little more freedom.I wanted something that was able to take him the 100 miles or so into Wales to do some camping as I did when I was 17ish and had just passed. This new law 125 till you 19 is a real pain in the arse. Thanks again.
Now that's cleared something up that's been puzzling the hell out of me!, see(hear ).a few cbr's on commute to canary wharf every night,an frankly they did'nt 'sound' like 12 bhp like I remember. .
