@@redsreds6598 thanks, unless you buy a second hand bike which someone has put the lights on them selves then no. I bought mine with lights etc i then had to reg it with the dvla etc
@@danrawlings6059 I bet you have proper fun on that. Looks & sounds like a beast mate what a lovely sound when that powerband is kicking in. You still got it bro?
Hi I need your help.. I've got exactly the same bike as you but I called yamaha and got a dating letter and it says it's for closed circuit competition only and does not qualify for European whole vehicle type approval and does not comply with road vehicle construction and use? Did yours say that I'm stuck..
Yo Dan I'm also a yz125 owner looking to get it in the road soon was just curious about the gearing setup I'm guessing 14 45 is for top end speed for the motorways?
@@danrawlings6059 Huh, i usually press the clutch in so my engine will be lubricated at all times... and my engine doesnt overheat from not engine braking, its good for the motor when you dont engine brake
how much is the insurance on one of these? im thinking of buying one and converting it for the road but have no idea on what the insurance would be like
top speed was about 80mph stock gearing is 13/48 i believe but i changed the gearing for better top end which i what you need for the roads, still had plenty of acceleration, the gearing i changed it to was 14/45, also the speedo in the video is not accurate
Hey he said cheap Sparta and is reliable I just named the most reliable and has a large group of cheap parts to offer but your not wrong! If you want a cheap bike I wouldn’t go with a Honda lmao. Or ktm! Kawi or the yz is probably your best bet for cheaper bike on purchase.
if your looking for the cheaper option then i wouldnt go for ktm or husky, but all the main brands such as honda, yamaha, kawasaki, husky etc are decent bikes so up to you really, watch some youtube videos about how to ride a dirt bike. Hope this helps.

Hi dan any chance you could help me out I’m 6’2 and I’m looking to get a dirt bike but I’m not sure what one in terms of sizing would you know? If not no worries
@@whodatboi1543 im riding not driving. The only time i rode flat out was on the over take, if you acc watched the whole or most of the video you would of saw that i was barely even riding it hard lolll
i will lay this out in steps for ease. These are the steps in which I did it. At this point I will assume you already have a bike and you want to know what to do next. 1. Contact the bike manufacturer. - Yamaha - Kawasaki - Suzuki - Honda - KTM - Give them a call Contact the above bike manufacturer and tell them you have purchased a bike and would like a 'Certificate of Newness'. Each manufactuer charges different money, foe example Yamaha charged me £45 and it took 3 weeks to arrive and my friend has a Kawasaki and they charged him £42 and it arrived the following week. 2. MOT - You can only do this once you have the above certificate in your hand Now after ringing around various MOT bays it become quite clear that this is a bit of grey area. Each testing bay had their own idea on how a "daytime MOT" should be done. These are the things you will need to look out for; - Road legal tyres - They cannot say "not for road use" and should ideallly have an "E" number of some sort on them. - A Horn - Every single testing bay I called required a horn. You can get a strap on horn from eBay for about £20 - Rear Brake Light - Some testing bays told me I needed a rear brake light. In the end I didn't need 1 for my MOT but I fitted one afterwards using a Total Loss System*. - Speedo - I did not need on but if you do get asked for one then you can download a speedo on your phone and attach that to your bike. * For the total loss system I replaced the bango nuts for bango brake switches, added a cheap rear number plate holder with light and added a 10 battery holder pack under the seat then wired it up. If they ask for this then remember it does not have to run off the bike so don't worry about fitting heavy duty stators etc. Each MOT tester is different so phone around and find the easiest way of doing it. 3. NOVA Declaration Now at this point you should have an MOT certificate and a certificate of newness. Before you go any further, check your certificate of newness and if it states that the bike has been added to the NOVA database then you can move onto the next step. If not, then your bike has to be added to the NOVA database. You must do thi, I cannot stress that enough. If you do not have a NOVA reference on your certificate then follow the steps below; - HMRC NOVA - Go to this site. Register or login - DeeperBlue NOVA Walkthrough - This guy, Deeperblue, has a step by step guide on RU-vid. Follow this and you should have the bike added easily. It is worth noting that the HMRC will want to see a copy of the reciept for the bike(my friend made me one on a bit of paper as I got it from him) and your certificate of newness. 4. V55/5 At this point you should have been accepted by NOVA, have your valid MOT and your certificate of newness. - Order your V55/5 form here - DeeperBlue V55/5 Walkthrough - This guy, Deeperblue, has a step by step guide on RU-vid. Follow this and you should have the form filled in and sent easily. You will need to send a £55 registration fee and money for 1 years tax. You can check the current tax bracket for your bike at www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables/other-vehicle-tax-rates Send off all required documents with the above V55/5 along with your cheque or postal order for your tax and registration. 5. Complete If all went well you should have all your documents back in the post along with your new motorbike log book. Now all you need to do is get a number plate made up, get some insurance and have some fun on your bike. If I can help by answering any questions then I gladly will. Big big thank you to DeeperBlue for his help with the videos.
@@danrawlings6059 Sweet thanks man. Ive been trying to find the right gearing for my RM146 that's about to be street legal! 19/21. I ordered some Shinko Sr241 tires for it. What brand tires are you riding? They don't make many tires for 19" dual sport
@@danrawlings6059 Sweet, I almost went with the ac10 also but will be on the road more often than not. I'll probably be trying them out before long. How has your transmission, rings piston held up since road legal? How many hours are you getting before replacing? Thanks for the info btw!
They are dirtbikes, so they dont have blinkers. Also they are not legal. But if this bike would be legal and not have any blinkers, then you would have to indicate with your hand/leg. If you are turning left, then you point to your left with your hand or leg, same thing with right, but you just point to your right. Hope this helps!
@@bradpaterson193 Depends on your RPM's. If you are pinning the bike at 9000rpm, then i can confirm that your bike will not last more than 10 minutes. But if you ride like me and do about 4000rpm's, then i can guarantee you can ride about a full gas tank. But before you go again after filling up your gas tank, it is recommended that you let the bike cool down a little bit. 🙂
when you ride a lot you just get a feel for it, obviously you cant ballpark it perfectly if for example you get radar gunned lol, but yeah you should have a feel what 40/60/80/100km/h feels like on your bike without a speedo when you just ride enough
