Questions about road legal 125cc
Hello,
My brother recently gave me his old bike a Yamaha YBR125 but sadly this bike is too heavy for me and I need to sell it, I am looking for a road legal pitbike 125 cc instead.
I recently found on the internet a Stomp 125cc road legal enduro bike. Is this a good bike? Any other recommendations? Does anyone know of any online websites where road legal 125cc pitbikes are being sold?
Sorry for all these questions, but please help me out if you can. Thanks!

Re: Questions about road legal 125cc
there is a stomp crf70 road legal for sale new but other than that it be 2rd hand. if the ybr is the same as a cg125 then it was very light.
remmber that pitbike are tiny have small tanks and are vey light meaning they could be picked up by 2 people and carryed away.
i would look on line at the spec of the ybr and find the weight and then see what other 125 are light or go to the gym

Thanks for the information. The YBR125 is a weight of 19. 7 stone. It is way too heavy for me. I am a long distance runner and I am also a vegetarian, I only weigh 9 stone. I will have to get a lighter bike, probably a pitbike.

ok, i just don't understand the weight issue, when would you ever have to lift it, bikes are always heavier than the people, and some big bikes, once you drop them, you can't pick them up lol
they're not designed to be light, just don't drop it lol
