Just a question about where can I get hold of some 3/4 inch black iron pipe, the sort that used to be used for gas or water pipe. I need to support the FJR when I remove the centre stand and the rear swing arm, this years little job ! But I'm buggered if I can find anywhere that sells the stuff in the lengths that I want and with the threads cut into it. Any of you that can help out with a suggestion I will be really grateful. Thanks peeps.

Hi! I have recently bought an Rs125dx 1979 model to restore! I’m a bit short on a few bits and am finding them tricky to get hold of! If anyone has got any ideas or pointers, or anything hidden in the back of their shed I would be very grateful! Bits I’m short of include but are not limited too! Exhaust down pipe. carbuerettor insides (spring needle etc) seat any other spares or bits for sale would also be greatly appreciated! Many thanks Peter

Hello Yamaha owners. My 1994 Yamaha Sr125 workhorse finally gave up on me last week. There’s still combustion and the clutch is fine but the transmission/gear-set is buggered. I’m going to swap engines. Will a ‘96 engine, for example, fit my ‘94?? Is there a way using websites, registrations or serial numbers that I can use to cross reference engines with chassis’ to confirm compatibility?

Yep, sold the cruiser a couple of weeks ago. Didnt need to sell, but 1500 miles in the last 3 years on it, seemed a shame for it just to sit in the garage. No regrets, gonna spend a bit on the Fazer now, powercommander to be fitted, likely to need new tyres this winter along with chain and rear sprocket. Going to have a look at a rear view camera set up too, so may be able to dump the mirrors

I haven't posted on this forum outwith the welcome page yet so wasn't sure where to put this. Went for general so i didnt clog up the events page (will put something there later if it is more relevant). The yorkhill easter egg run is something I've always enjoyed seeing from an outside perspective and now I've got 2 wheels it's something I'd possibly like to get involved in. Really just wanting to see if its a thing that many people on here do or have done in the past? Its on the 1st of april this year, It is a day I'm working but i was looking at getting the day off or maybe seeing if my work would support it as they do alot of local charity work. If a…
