Hi, Im new here, as I am an L-plater I'm slightly incompetent with my bike and dropped it going round a corner as I stalled, do any of you know the paint code for Matte Grey or anyone who could repaint it for you? I kinda scratch my right side cowling paint, the boomeraing/triangle bit.

Hi Folks I am looking to buy some parts for my 2006 YBR 125. i am a new Yamaha owner so can anyone recommend an online retailer or is it best to order parts from my local dealer? Thanks John

Cant insure it in uk . Looks like my bikeing days r over

Got a Yam tzr50 2006 (2 stroke of course) Can anyone tell me what exactly kind of oil i should use or will any 2 stroke (bike) oil do? This bike is new to me so if anyone could steer me in the right direction as to what problems i should look out for on this model would be great too. Thanks. R.

Never got that thundercat - long story short, the gearbox was knackered, and it was crashdamaged. got a insurance quote for a XJ6-N, 370 quid fully comp.. going to glasgow to see it tomorrow! but i kinda want to wait till the MT-09 is out. . . .

Thanks or reading my post but am asking how many of you have got elbow mirrors and what can be done about it.currently ride xj6s and its just as bad on that as many other bikes no doubt.cheers all.

So I can't wait till it's done because I want to show you guys!

I want some that you can plug into your phone and not massive, I don't want a docking station because I already have one. Right let's narrow it down, I'm looking for, loud, bassy, good quality, suitable for iPhones, not huge speakers, not to expensive £80+. Any ideas? Thanks

After reading Dirty DT's post in the for sale thread, "Squires for sale" it got me thinking where would be the ideal place for our own Biker cafe, as dirty said there's lot's pubs closed down which could easily be converted to a biker cafe, it would be good to be pretty central so no one at least in the UK has to ride stupid miles to get there or we could have more than one, one in the north and another in the south then we could have ride outs between them so just for fun unless I win the Lotto where would you put your's and why ?

Hi All, Can Anyone help?? I've been given a FZR 400. It's a 1985/86 model frame number is 46X then the rest of it. I'm not sure which exact model it is. However, it has a fuel problem,,,,,,NO FUEL PUMP!!! So, I've ordered one via Ebay for a 1WG model. I suppose any low pressure pump will do. Anyway, I can't find where it should plug in, and also the tank sender, where that should plug in. I need a service manual for it!!! Any ideas????? I don't know what spec the bike is, European, American, etc.(I have a feeling it is European spec.) The tank is all steel. So, if there is anyone out there in the Merseyside area that can help,,,,YES PLEASE!!! I'd be more than…

Hey guys and gals! Just got a 1996 xj600s and I'm restoring it as a project. I was thinking of starting a blog about it all and posting what I was doing and how to sort through and clean it up etc. it's a non runner at the moment. Starts and runs on idle and choke, but will cut out as soon as you touch the accelorator. First though, problem in fuel pump/ carbs taken all this off and found a small hole in one of the diaphragms in the carb! Hoping this is the problem, anyway. Ordered a second hand set of carburetors and awaiting them to arrive. Checked fuel pump and fuel lines all running smoothly, so with any luck not much more work to do to get it up and running. Once it …

Hello guys Well I picked up my new YBR 125 on friday and I love it! Its great to finally be on the road with 2 wheels. And every day has been a new experiance for me. Still keep finding NEUTRAL every now and then when I take off which was a bit scary but im getting better. The Bike is lovely though really nice ride and very easy to ride too. Just need to get the mile in and keep learning. Rob

Does anyone remember what the name of the silver color used on the forklegs and fenders on 1970's era AT1B's? Yamaha doesn't seem to have a record! Thanks, Tony.

A few years ago i had to sell my dream machine to pay someones elses debts after a nasty split. Ever since i have kept an eye on fleabay/bike trader etc in the hope of being able to buy it back. Well it went on ebay on Weds and was sold virtually straight away. I only saw the ad last night and called ASAP but was too late. Totally gutted. Hope the new owner has as much fun as i did.
