Got new bike, again! Pg 11/12

None of the bikes I've had have had cats 
Didn't think any have them ha

I would bother with flow etc its only a 125 so it won't make a difference

As above really mate, 4 stroke 125's don't tune well. I know you've spent the money on a new one, but I'd leave alone and run it till you're ready to upgrade to a bigger bike. Such a world of difference.

Tire wise I used to love Avon storms as a winter tire. Surprised myself on the wet on bends - came in too fast and thought sh!t I'm going down, but it stuck and went round. That was on a 190 section rear though. Don't know about skinnier ones and how much difference they make.

cheers guys, think the exhaust will go its notorious on these bikes from what I've read and mine is stored outside, roadside. Just thinking eventually I will replace it for a SS system for the sake of a few extra bob I might aswell go performance one, hence for the questions. I know on a 125 it won't do much maybe 1-2 bhp but this bike could sure do with that, I don't understand why they don't build them to the 14bhp limit rather than give you 10 and overhear it as it'd make a difference on national non motorway roads to keep up at 70, let alone when it changes to 80

Spend the cash on quality clothing, boots and helmet.  Leave the little bike stock for easy resale.

Already do, I will probably be upgrading it to even more expensive stuff in the future though.

Any advice on what is a good waterproof case for my spare phone that will function as a satnav on my bike?

[golfyste]

Something like this?

That's what I'm after, ordered one in, any differences though as some have a hole for a cable feed and some don't, what's the better option for the future?

Also if you want a 12v socket where do you typically wire it too and place it on the bike, I've not yet had a look at the battery or the loom yet.

Appreciating all the advice and tips so far.

Bot quite sure just maker sure it fits your phone 
As for the wiring
Just wire it straight to your battery with a inline fuse, that's how my heated grips are wired
Battery is probably under the seat

Thanks, I'll have a look at some point I remember the dealer showing me where the battery cover was. Where's the ideal place to put a socket neatly as wiring should be straight easy I still have loads of cables left over from doing stuff on the golf.

Also what's the best thing to do when going into a corner fast and the back starts to slide when tilted?
