'Eda' just arrived in Belgium as my holiday bike. I picked her out as she seems to be one of my quicker 125s. There are still lots of little jobs to do and she will most likely be getting one of Norbo's new master cylinders. Getting bored of my standard bikes, I decided to make some subtle changes + cut 'n chop a few bits as if I was 17 again  now needs a smaller number plate! Exhaust, indicators and most of the updated nuts and bolts are from the MK3. The only non Yam bits are the pattern footpeg rubbers and seat cover. I've only painted the exhaust, brake caliper and disc so far + recoloured the original green engine bolts and clips gold. Still room for improvement. Paint job isn't too bad. was found on another bike I bought and broke for spares, I've added bare minimum decals. I'm still deciding if to change it to one of my White body kits, watch this space! Had a quick test ride after the initial MOT visit and need to look again at carb low down, fork oil and brakes before I can enjoy her a bit more. Will post on-board video later (note camera on left indicator)       video now on youtube: |

Yeah those roads are good to enjoy the 125. I'll do some better videos when the bike is tip top. Quality on youtube doesn't look as good, will have to have a tinker.
The camera is just known as an SJ1000 for approx £60 delivered. I've broken it once hence tying it to it's holder now, I think most people use the clear waterproof case it comes with though.
I saw the review in following link, couldn't justify a Go-Pro for hobby use:

Still trying to get this bike to run spot on. Now has new crank seals, manifold gaskets, (spare carbs tested after these videos and still runs weak, albeit smoother than it was originally)
More vids from different camera position and in the water proof case, hence sound slightly dampened.
