    Yamaha YB125. Must sell!

    Yamaha YB125 for sale!



    Little 125cc two stroke
    Retro classic 1964 design. No need to kick start! It's got an electric start.
    It's a GREAT commuter. Also good for classic collection.
    One scratch on the front mud guard but all rest in mint condition.
    No fault on the bike. This got to be the best and the most clean object I'll ever sell!

    Will get new rego next tomorrow.
    WOF is till next month.


    No need to restore, it IS restored.


    The bike had an engine top end rebuilt about 2 months ago, also the bike had a full service including carb cleaning. The bike now works very well.

    Please send me a message or an email for a view.

    Thanks

    If I had $1200 I'd be on a plane down there to pick it up!

    I had the chance to buy one earlier in the year for $500 as a fixer-upper and really wish I had!

    Thanks for the interest. Fact is, you don't need to restore this bike. It is already restored!

    Repairs finished. I was expecting 3 figures starting with around 5 bill. But it turned out total of $778.21. Un-fucking-believable.

    The bike MUST SELL!

    After paying handsome amount through the Eftpos machine, I've just picked it up from the shop then pushed the bike half the way home.
    Not exactly sure what it is but it seems nasty. Engine was smoking thick.
    There was enough fuel, enough oil and I wasn't running with the choke on. Heres the story: After picking up the bike, I rode home. After about 4kms the bike suddenly made noisy hisss sound. Then shortly after, rear wheel was locked and engine died. I gave a call to Cant Rides and theyll be picking it up very soon.

    It's going to take some more time to be on sale again.

    They explained...

    They say, it seems, when they rebored the chamber or whatever, the cylinder was too fit/tight causing it to get stuck in the chamber when it heats up and expands. It'll be re-bored again and hopefully be done by tomorrow.

    Damn, you having some bad luck there Mister! Its a shame that you cant keep it!
    As much as we love our wee 2 smokers I have too admit that I am loving the FXR for commuting and the fact that it still runs perfectly fine. *touches wood*

    I hope that's gonna be done at no charge to you. Should've been right the first time or they shouldn't have given it back to you.

    Yep ofcourse it'll be free of charge (since they admit). What I'm afriad is will it cause a bigger trouble after some period of time. e.g. in 3 months.
