TDR 125 2001

Has been years since it was ridden on the road but I took it on it's first outing today! Didn't go too well as I completely forgot that it doesn't have a low fuel light, and left it on reserve!

@MIGHTYMAN Long walk pushing it I guess? LOL

But looks like she rode well before the lil blooper!!! ;O)

[Mightyman]

Yeah it's a very smooth ride. Going to test it out on the motorway before I decide whether or not to keep it for commuting. Lucky I only had to walk it about half a mile!

The amount of times this has happened to me in the past is unreal I once had to push a bike over 10 miles no phone or anything on me I was in the middle of no where lol glad you didn't have to push it far! Bike looks like it runs sweet wouldn't mind getting my hands on tdr project at some point nice bikes .

[Mightyman]

Doesn't sound like fun Biker_123! I was all too happy to push it home after seeing it was out of fuel as when it first cut out I was thinking the worst..

Friend of mine got an RS 125 the other day so we went for a quick ride.

@MIGHTYMAN Very nice.

Has he had much work done to that RS. Those years can be so restrictive. Some of them didn't even come with a RAVE. They actually just have the Valve in the closed position. Which would be like riding with the YPVS turned off in the closed position.

Anyway you know my opinion of those engines. Can be savage in the right hands. But don't last very long if not maintained.

I am glad you are out on your TDR though mate. Hats off to you!

[Mightyman]

He says it's the "factory full power" version and it has a full Arrow but he's not happy with the bottom end of the rev range so it sounds like it might be pinned open if anything. Don't think it's had anything else done to it though.

Just finished a showreel / montage for this project!

@MIGHTYMAN Cool vid bud, just one thing though, you should leave the annotations up on the screen for longer. As they flash up so quick you can't read them fast enough and have to keep pausing and rewinding the video, which decreases the enjoyment whilst watching it!!!

[Sorry my pet-hate on YT!!! :P]
