The Bar

In Ireland, during this Weather, its safer not to go riding. The weather is one thing, but the tiny roads are another. I have fallen off so many times during the winter, it was nearly becoming part of my Christmas Cheer. Broke my Collar Bone 2 years ago and I was only going about 20KM. Spent Christmas in a bad way.....

I have this little yamaha bike Very low mielage for the age of the bike 11,000 Previous owner had it dry stored for 3 years Since owning the bike i have carried out the following work New plug New lead Forks rebuilt with seals New air filter fitted Light bulbs all round Carb removed and cleaned New battery Oil change The tyres and brakes are good all round I have also put a full 12months of tax on the bike and had an mot carried out at the same time The bike runs sweet and hasn't let me down at all whilst i have used it Looking to sell it and was wondering where is best to advertise a little bike like this?

Has anyone had the need or experience of fitting a steering damper to a fazer? Advice on manufactures and types would be useful? Thanks JRC

it`s a funny old thing to look back at the bikes you once owned.. when i was a spotty youth, i owned bikes such as suzuki A100`s, FS1E`s, Honda CB125 twin, LC250 ,Suzuki GT250`s = many, suzuki DR, plus a bucketful of off road stuff, ect ect and i remember them all with a big smile and thought they were the mutts nuts???? oh except for the CZ!! just recently i had the chance to ride both a CB125 twin and a A100 and it`s surprising how small they are. how i ever managed to go fast on any of those is beyond me thier handling and brakes scared the life out of me i think being 6 stone heavier and 4" taller might have some effect on the aero-dynamics me-t…

May you all stew in your favorite falling down juice, and enjoy a happy and healthy new year. Jason.

Thanks so much for having this forum on the net. The time I've spent reading and looking at the bikes has been very rewarding. Hope your new year will be the best yet. Rick

Hello from sheffield, ive just got my 1st big bike a fzs600. So ive joined here in the hope of a bit of biking banter.. hello to 1 n all Matt

as one or two of you may be aware, i`m trying to reserect a bag of bolts into an XS400. i am at the stage now where i may have to buy from abroad for a few parts and i am concerned. this could be my first time buying from abroad. we all know of someone who has been conned or fiddled by scammers abroad... what i would like to know is what i need to look out for when buying from overseas. what have you lot come across?? who should i avoid? do you lot know of any companies that give a very bad service to thier overseas buyers??? are there any really good companies that you lot can recommend??? in particular exhaust companies..... it`s a sad state of …

i am currently restoring this bike and would like to add a few performance parts, aftermarket header, aggressive cams, etc. i am having difficulty tracking down any parts for this bike and any help would be very much appreciated. in it's stock form the bike ran 11.70's and would love to get it down to a low 11 or possibly a high 10. thanks.

Hello All!! I just bought my second bike at the age of 60 so I'm learning everthing anew. I'm also a complete computer luddite so apologies in advance for delayed replies as I've had these typing fingers for sixty years and I can't do a thing with them! By the by, are you all Brits here? I think I qualify, as the first time I "rode" a motorbike was sitting on the gastank of my grandfather's BSA in Fermangh,NI in the 1950's. Very fond memories,indeed. I don't quite understand how a group of Brit gearheads can be so witty- I'm constantly laughing at the repartee. All the best, and apologies for my Trimph riding brother in New York!!

Merry Christmas to everyone here! We have winter here in Europe! Waiting for the new bike season to come! Take care! Mike circus-vmaximus.com
