A jap import which shares many parts with FZ600 1986-1989. It was taken off the road last year due to a duff starter motor. This was rebuilt and fitted, but that is as far as it got. I have robbed a few parts for my 600 so it not really viable to put it back on the road. I also have a spare FZ600 engine. Regards Mark.

Hi to all, as I have just aquired a FZR 400 to do up which I must admit is rather enjoyable, so I though it prudent to join a good club, as I might have to call for help, I am knocking on a bit, but in my youth, my bikes were the 350 ypvs and RD 250 and a couple of Yamaha trailies, anyway my round next. Cheers

Hi everyone, I have recently bought a YBR 125 that I am still learning on post-CBT. I want to take it to work to get more practise, but my laptop is a bit too heavy and awkward on a backpack. Can anyone recommend any luggage that might be suitable and compatible with my bike? I am not too keen on a topbox - being only 5'3", I might have some difficulty getting onto the bike with one! Thanks for any ideas.

Me again another stupid question about my r6 i was stuck in heavy traffic whilst it was raining my bike had a temp of 100 degrees went down when got away from traffic is that normal or could my bike be poorley there was also a bit of smoke coming up from handle bars but it was raining heavy and a friend of mine said his has done that in past but says it is the rain water????????????

The river is the Maekong, we have a ride list not a club here in Udon Thani, A lot Airforce vets will recongize that name but not the city any longer get out for day rides like this just about once a week. So this is typical door to door day ride. Good friends beautfiul scenery and road that can be fanatastic or true challenges where you dodge everything from pot holes to water buffalos. This is the Issan area next to Lao. Other parts of the country have beach rides or mountains.. No one said I couldn't do it asked

Hi, Could anyone tell me if I can get a tail tidy for a Yamaha TZR 50? I can't see any, would one off a R1 or an R6 fit? If it has indicators built in, do I need to change some wiring? How easy is it? Just asking because I haven't really got much experience. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Folks, I own a '92 3HE FZR600 Genesis (tho its says 1994 on V5 doc), which I use daily and enjoy. But wanted opinions from other owners. My bike really doesnt seem to like pulling away too well when below 3000 rpm and I find myself dropping gears to overtake people. Bike pulls well through the range apart from that. Is this normal - or should I be worried?!?!?!?! Also on the lookout for an exhaust and engine casings ( to replace minor damage caused by previous owners ) if anyone has anything out there for sale! :-) Looking forward to hearing from other owners!

Hiya, Just joined so thought I would say hello, just bought a FZR600 Genesis today so much different to my blackbird Hopefully I can get some tips on here on how to possibly make improvement to it, especially in the braking department are there any calipers etc from more modern stuff that fit straight on ?

Hi all, Just lost me job and am hoping to save a few quid. Bought some fuel from a well known supermarket and guess what it was full of impurities and it's clogged up my fuel pump (according to my local garage anyway). Now I've no way of proving the Supermarket link as I have no samples and it was bought miles away from home on a long ride. Anyway looks like it's going to cost me around £70 for a pump (pump is combined with relay) plus fitting and I've already had to pay the garage to get me going. The bike is a Fazer 600 2000 model. Now assuming I can get the old pump back from the garage do you know of a way to cleanb the old one to save me a few quid on bu…

Hi, my name is Scott and i live in Aberdeen. Passed my full bike test a few months ago and bought my first bike a month ago, a 1991 Yamaha FZR 600 Genesis. Best thing i think i've ever bought. I am needing to replace the tyres on my bike. Due to the age of my bike, my tyres are really thin, the back tyre is 140/60/18 and the front is 110/70/17. I have 2 options at the moment which are: Dunlop GPR Alpha Bridgestone BT96 Has anyone got any opinions/experience with these tyres and also any recommendations for other tyres i could get which will acommodate my sizes? I was recommended Michelin Pilot Sports but i don't think they do my sizes. Any help here would…

Hi all, I've just bought an S-reg XJ600N as a project and winter hack bike, so this looks like the place to be. Seems to be in fair condition apart from a knackered front tyre and a gummed-up clutch - it hasn't run since April. Otherwise it's just a question of TLC I hope, though a lot waits on the keys catching up with me as they've gone walkabout. I'm up in Liverpool and I can often be found lurking on the BMW Club forum and the BikerMatch social website. Already spotted one familiar name from BikerMatch! This is a return to Yamahas for me after a long absence - back in the 80s I had an XJ650, but that's another story. cheers, Wills
