Sadly all the opinions of YBR seem to point that way (poor reliability somewhere or other).
I was pleasantly surprised. It did take a half dozen or more short presses of the magic button, but judging by the low flickering of the neutral light the battery was almost dead.
Once it started, it was going fine.
MOT is due 25th March, need to book a date for it asap.
Dreading riding it after 6 months on the DR350. Must remember it’s fun and slow, and low.
Put new adjustable Chinesium levers, fitting a different headlamp (long story), and otherwise jus a check over. Needs the cam chain swap but if I sell it cheap then that can be a job for the new owner.

Unlike my YBR which has completely left the planet since getting accidentally neglected in the cold a tad too long over lockdown 3.0. Fuse is fine but won't light up or start from a battery, jump or bump. It needs an mot and a bit of a list of things to sort, I'm losing the will with it and just want another bike. I really have my heart set on a Suzuki Marauder atm (or a Kawasaki Eliminator but harder to come by)... I know its another 125cc but I'm in no rush to get my licence and can live with another 2 years on CBT with mpg for dayz, near no tax and ridiculous low insurance.
