What bike is this?
« on: 01 August 2015, 08:51:08 am »
I can't take it any more, the reporting is embarrassing.
Firstly, it certainly ain't blue, and it's not a YZF either, so what is it?
Lazy bloody reporting and policing.  :rolleyes

Basically, Daily Star reporters are seriously as thick as shit, that can't spell and don't let a small thing like facts get in the way of a story.
And they are probably part time coppers as well.  :lol

I'm with Noggy on this - the forks, the twin exhaust, the fron mudguard/headlight and the tail light all look like a FMX 650, but a quick check of the DVLA website doesn't show the reg no and the bike matching so it's either a tampered number plate, or a totally false one - not surprising really is was being used for an assault/robbery.

I feel sorry for all the owners of Blue R125's getting a pull and asked lots of questions.  Looking closely though,  it could be an R125 with an FMX650 vinyl wrap over it. That would explain the confusion
