Hi everyone! Finaly there is a 9 VIN decoder for all Yamaha 1960 to 2010! You can find it here: https://impreso.no/yamaha/9vin/ I made it when i searched for info on my own DT125MX. My Yamaha dealer said it was a 1978 model based on VIN, but it turned out it was a 1987! Hope you can get use of it!

Cleaning a motorcycle race suit is maintaining it. Cleaning your motorcycle race suit is as important as maintaining your motorcycle. A well-maintained bike gives you a smooth ride, and a leather suit provides you freshness, comfort, and protection.

Hi, I'm new to bikes so apologies if this seems like a stupid question. The Neutral light on my YBR doesn't come on even when neutral is engaged and it probably just needs replaced. The issue I'm having is, no matter how much I search, I can't find someone simply describing where the neutral switch is on the YBR and I don't really know what I'm looking for. Thought it would be very easy to figure out but it doesn't seem to be something anyone is pointing out with clarity. Cheers, Oran

How's it going every one? I've not ridden bar a couple of hire mopeds on holiday since I brought my tiger to squires and we went on ride out to Scarborough. That's got to be atleast 5 years. Sold on and left without a bike was a big difference in life cause I used to ride me, far and wide in all weather's and all hours. Met some great people attended some great days out. How I never got any points or anything I'll never know cause I rode that TDR singing all the way. It's still around.

Hi all, I've owned a 96 Thunderace which I really like but.....the clutch is really heavy. Anyone else have this issue or am I just a real whimp? I had an issue with not hitting neutral so replaced the clutch friction & steel plates, springs, seals at the business end of the push rod but although I can now hit neutral (most of the time) and despite all this, the clutch is as heavy as it ever was. I'm assuming early R1s would have a similar clutch setup and wondered if anyone else out there either is more manly than I or has a solution.....???
