Oh well, got a high frequency vibe at around 7000rpm now and down around 10mph, definitely need more throttle for comparable amounts of go so looks like i'm rebuilding the TDR's top end over the winter...

This is my fave band at the Mo, after seeing them support Airbourne bit of blood near the end, but not too gory

Good afternoon everyone. My dad owns a barely used, but soundly running, 1977 R-reg Yamaha DT100 in good nick, which he is thinking of selling via my Flea-bay account. Would anyone have any experience on what sort of prices it could possibly go for, or a reserve price I should consider? I appreciate that's quite an open question so I don't expect any exact answers, but I have looked on ebay and autotrader finding that most DTs are the latter 175 or 250's. Mods/Admin - this is not a 'for sale' topic, I'm just trying to get an idea if it's worth selling or not thats all. Cheers John

Just wondering whats the story on these Iridium plugs ! 1) do the last longer ? 2) do they give better performance ? 3) are they easier on the engine ?,,,,,eg. less strain on creating spark or is it more strain ? 4) do they reduce fouling ? 5) do they reduce fuel consumption ? Ive here different stories about these plugs and was wondering what the real story is ! Four plugs = €30 they would want to do something magical !

Chaps, As a fairly free thinking group, I'd like your opinion on this. Recently there was a report on the BBC news about a bike thief who died while riding, and crashing a stolen bike without a helmet on. On another forum I posted the link and made a comment that I had no sympathy for him, and also, in my opinion the police should persure these people with extreme prejudice. Now these comments caused one or two responses, mostly in agreement, along the lines of 'what goes around comes around', and 'thieving scum deserve all they get' However, one or two people found this post, and the comments 'obscene' I have tried to understand thier opinion, but so far …

Just a quick post to say hello to everyone on here! My names Joel, I'm 21 and I am from Oxford. My main ride is a Triumph Daytona 955i 99' but I am currently building a custom Yamaha cafe racer. I have joined the forums just to see what other people are up to, in terms of bikes that is. I have some cool ideas of customs I would like to build around Yamaha's and over time I hope to hear some opinions. Just a bit of background info, I worked in F1 for 5 years and I am about to start studying physics at university. Best regards to everyone, Joel
