😂😂 was just thinking the same. Earlier on the gas out of pates too

There's some tricky sections at Donny, for sure. Going at my own pace though. Got nothing to prove at this stage.

It's a great first bike, I can confirm that. It may not have a lot of torque but it's planted in corners and with decent tyres it inspires confident riding, which is essential for a first bike. I just bought a GSX-R600K8 back in October of last year. I've uploaded a few videos recently of me riding it. Such a great bike and perfect for someone of my size.

Thanks for the comments, mine was a K3. I put 50,000 miles on it as its second owner and loved every mile of it. I never bored of leaving 750s and litre bikes in my wake round my favourite twisties including the TT mountain course. I'll get another bike soon, they're into bikes in a big way here in Bulgaria and petrol is 82 p a litre just now. Happy days.. Good riding to you, I'll check out your other uploads too :-)

Thanks. I'm at the point now where I'm comfortable staying off the brakes between corners. I try to ride in a way that uses as little brake as possible and let the engine do the work. Maybe by mid-season next year I'll be giving it more throttle between corners but for now, I'm happy with my progress. I like to take my time! Unfortunately my accent is a little too thick for people at times. I might add captions if it gets too bad. xD.

Cheers. I'm always on the BBC website checking the weather. Plus I'm lucky. ;)

This road is a lot of fun and quite a challenge. I'd say it's excellent to learn on, due to the plethora of corner types. There's a few jumps and some off camber sections that really teach you about bike and throttle control. The music is there for entertainments sake. I'll upload a raw version and add an annotation and link in the description. Thanks for watching. ;)

It's a great road but very technical in places. You need to be confident and stay on the throttle on the steeper sections. Rolling back or stalling will require a change of underwear upon completion. Make sure you go over the Kirkstone Pass to get to Hard Knott. That's another fantastic road. Lots of flowing chicanes and varying gradients. I followed the KIrkstone Pass until the Kirkstone Pass Inn, then took a right down Kirkstone road to Ambleside. The exhaust is an Akrapovic titanium slip on. I'm enjoying your videos. ;)

Murcuseo the dealer I got the bike from offered me a cheap used Akrapovic off the test bike - so tempted to get it! Thanks for the info - I'll be sure to check out Kitckstone pass on my trip! Glad you are enjoying them - right back at you! :)

The tips of my fingers were getting cold so I was circulating the blood a little. I'd like to have a funny answer for you but that was it. lol I actually got the recommendation for this road from a fellow Scotsman on my last video and couldn't quite believe how fun it was. Part 2 will be uploaded soon. Thanks for watching!

A friend of mine will be on the 400. It's such a great little bike and I would consider getting one myself, but I'm 6'3 and look like a clown when riding it. He's taken all the packing of the exhaust so it sounds amazing. It also has plenty of power to keep up with my NC700X. Hopefully the sound recording will pick up on how great that little bike really is!

Thanks and apologies for spelling your username wrong. I only noticed after I'd uploaded it. :( I'm a little slower and less confident than yourself but I've only had my full license since June of last year, so my confidence is growing. I was riding this road with a friend on Sunday and I felt like I was going much faster and smoother. I think in the future I'll keep the auto level off and increase the level post production. I have an idea for a better placement of the recorder as well. I have plenty of foam to finger and mess around with anyway. ;) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Murcuseo don't worry about the spelling, I'm not good with names either ehehehe ;) Your riding looks really good to me, especially since you just got the full license in June!! It took me almost 6 years to get where I am at now. This year I had the chance to experiment (never more than 1 experiment so far unfortunately) with a constant audio-level-input and for my backpack and for the CB, an input level of 20 works quite well!

Depends on the application. What do you plan on using the bike for? If it's for dry weather and fun weekend rides I'd recommend the YZF but if you plan to put more miles on through commuting and moderate touring I'd recommend the WR. The YZF is a sports bike and has it's limits as far as ergonomics and comfort. It is without doubt the best looking and most sport style 125 out there and handles really well if ridden hard. The WR is more practical and comfortable. It also handles well but shoud be ridden in a different style.

Murcuseo well its going to be ridden for everything, being used on dual carriageways, going to college, work and home, used to fun rides. And I need something that's easier to filter traffic.

hu99u Personally I would choose the WR as it has more practical real world use than the YZF. A more upright position like on the WR is far better for the majority of things you just listed. Especially filtering as it gives you a clearer view through traffic and a more dominant riding position. The WR also has a tighter turning circle, where as the turning circle on the YZF is extremely limited at slower speeds due to the fairing and can be tricky to manage unless you have good clutch control and body postion. Remember, this is only my opinion and the ultimate choice would be yours. But if I were in your situation I would choose the WR. Best of luck and enjoy riding which ever you decide. Stay safe.

Murcuseo Ok thanks for the replay, that's made my decision easier. stay safe as well.

WR125X is gonna be more comfortable.
