Brand is right, model is way off. The L is some shit for london that every bike and scooter has, means like some fee was paid.

YZF R125

THe Beemer looks like a transformer! :lol:

There are so many cool bikes over the pond that I wish we could get. I'd love to try the Yamaha Tenere XT660Z.

Little more complex than that. We should have the same laws here so riders can upgrade when they have practiced alot IMO


UK Travel and Transport Laws

[Law MV(DL)R regs 42(1) & 69(1)]
Light motorcycle licence (A1): you take a test on a motorcycle of between 75 and 125 cc. If you pass you may ride a motorcycle up to 125 cc with power output up to 11 kW.
Standard motorcycle licence (A): if your test vehicle is between 120 and 125 cc and capable of more than 100 km/h you will be given a standard (A) licence. You will then be restricted to motorcycles of up to 25 kW for two years. After two years you may ride any size machine.


Direct or Accelerated Access enables riders over the age of 21, or those who reach 21 before their two-year restriction ends, to ride larger motorcycles sooner. To obtain a licence to do so they are required to

have successfully completed a CBT course
pass a theory test, if they are required to do so
pass a practical test on a machine with power output of at least 35 kW
To practise, they can ride larger motorcycles, with L plates (and/or D plates in Wales), on public roads, but only when accompanied by an approved instructor on another motorcycle in radio contact.

hmmm, that is odd. The 125 had the L and every scooter does too. And just about every bike I have seen has also had it. But that is all good to know :)

the rear looks like the front too.

The L sticker you are referring to is also used to designate that the rider/driver are "Learners". I don't remember how long they have to rock the plate, but I think it's something like 1 year iirc.

Aha, that makes a lot of sense then. Doesnt stop motorcycles and scooters from beeing super ballsy over here though :P
