Re: Starting out
Welcome ollies41,
I too came from a YBR125, will never forget the first ride home on the 650. I too was a little apprehensive about the first ride, but these bikes are pretty kind and forgiving. I started off quite slow, got bored stuck behind a lorry. Remembered I wasn't on the YBR and could actually over take it now. Grinned like a Cheshire cat all the way home. Oh and 10 min's later found out just how fast it would go down the M4. Sorry officer... Enjoy. Ride safe.

Re: Starting out
Hello and welcome. Try not to feed the animals. I love the lakes and am a regular visitor. You like those of us in Northumberland are blessed with some of the best roads in the UK with northern England and southern Scotland within easy reach.

Re: Starting out
Welcome to the 5'2" club. I started on an SV, now also have a low seat factory lowered GS, which as you can see, is the perfect size for Jambo...
