is this bike dangerous? the other half is trying to persuade me to let him have it. he says its a very low powered bike. he wants it for university.

so...is that *correct information* or not?!

 

[proaquatics]

[Neervana]

i think its called...a yamaha yzf-r125....something...?

 

[Citrinellus]

This should have been a poll. Let him have it.

 

[Neervana]

let him get it

yes..but is this a low powered bike? or not? i am clueless where bikes are concerned

 

[Neervana]

LOL. stop it you lot! this is not about whether he can have it or not. this is about...whether i shall be worrying everytime he is on this bike and going mental on it.

125CC 2-stroke engine.
It's a low powered beginner bike.
Probably tops out at about.. 60 miles per hour?
I don't know a whole bunch about them since we don't get them in the US.
But yeah, it would be a good beginner bike, and looks cooler than a moped.
