And I wasn't going to mention the "rainbow dashing" in case it was a secret. I want a bore kit too. Not sure if to go 180cc, 200cc or just keep 125cc and add the racing cam. |

Who fitted it? Did you do it yourself? And what kind of power do you have now Penny? The Malossi has always looked like a good bit of kit. Although the black race cam with the stock 125cc engine is supposed to be really good. I currently have a Power Commander 5 on my bike. |

My partner fitted, dyno and sorted out the maps.
Honestly it's more midrange power rather than a whole overhaul of power so the top end is still naff but you can prolly bet 90 at a push I really doubt any more will come from it obviously you need a new front sprocket idk what mine is but it's not a stock one because I can get over the old bouncing point of 83mph.
I was looking at a PC5 but I can't see any difference to what I have now so I can't justify the spend lmao though.

I'm happy to get above 30mph as 90% of the time I'm on my bike its within 30 zones.  |

if you can afford it and want performance have an rs as your sunday bike, my mates aprilia destroy big bore kit yzfs, just seems so pointless the cost of buying and setting up a big bore is the cost of a neat aprilia or nsr or tzr or rg but i mean each to there own and respect for riding anyway penny i only know like 1 other female with a big bike |

Ive had a few RS' and they do my bloody head in. |

Proper fast tho are the RS! Un restricted there faster than my old 250 ninja, trust me on that.
Only buy a bore kit if you want to keep the yzf for a long time. I modded mine because one I fit on it better than the r6 and its so cheap to tax and run.
Good news also tomorrow is my last payment on my bike hehe! Can't wait!

Yeah I am keeping my R125 for a long time yet. Insurance is only £166 this year. And in November I will have 3 years no claims so should hopefully drop again. £16 tax and fuel and oil/maintenance costs cheap so its a brilliant bike. Im 28 years old and I have no desire to get rid yet. Gonna take my full test on my R125 too. I passed my Theory first time weeks ago. Just waiting for nice weather to do my MOD 1 and 2 which are already paid for! |

There is a kit more suited for your mods also Ben, comes with no PC and exhaust so it's near the 400 mark like less than half the price of mine just tell them the year of your bike and they make it for you.
Night night guys I got a early start tomorrow the joys of being a manager yay me 4 til 4 love it
