Hi folks. Firstly, what does everyone think of the new Rossi replica? I currently use an AGV Ti-Tech helmet. its quite comfy, little bit of wind noise but not a big problem. BUT, i'm thinking of buying one of these new Sword replica lids. Its based on a K3 helmet from lower in the AGV range (going by the price), so wondering would i be better to stick with what I have?

Hi everyone! Just thought i'd share the great news that my wife has given birth to our 3rd son!! So that's gonna be another future biker. My eldest son already has his request in for a motorbike for his upcoming 5th birthday (that's my boy!!). They're gonna cost me a fortune over the next few years on bikes - and I don't care cos it'll be worth every penny. I'm also trying encouraging my wife to do her bike test. Think biking is definately in the blood.....

Hi I bought my R6 back in November and I am looking for an R6 owners club, as I would love to go out on some meets. I look for any reason too ride. At the moment I'm riding with a few blades, a ninja, gxr and cbr6, but as I'm still new to riding this beauty I'm out a lot more than they are. Just wondering if any of you might know a good R6 owners club. Or alternatively any motorbike club that meets up around Halesowen, (Bridgenorth/Stourbridge/Birmingham). But looking at this website, I'm expecting a lot of replies saying this is the place to be. Thanks Marc

Well since coming off the bike in Morocco I have been wondering what to do with it. Even considering just sticking it on Ebay as is and letting it go for whatever. Although underneath with a bit of TLC it is a cracking bike and what with the travels I have decided I really need two bike anyway and this would actually seem to be the most cost efficient option. So I have purchased the main parts as needed. These were originally quoted from a dealer in Burton and the approximate cost was: Left Hand Mirror £46 Left Hand indicator £36 Gear Shift Linkage £58 So a bit of Ebaying later Mirrors Pair with carbon effect £31 delivered 4* Mini clear indicator…

Hi Everyone! I've just registered and thought i'd say hello! I'm a new rider and have a '89 FZR 400 stashed away in the garage! Probably going to be picking your brains for information about servicing and repairs, as i can't find a manual! Might not be looking in the right place! So if anyone can help me that would be fantastic! See you in the forums! HaLo

I've not tested the water of late, I'll do it tonight, although to be honest I don't even think I've got an Ammonia test kit! Nitrite is defo at 0, unsure about Nitrate, again I'll have a check although I did a 1/4 water change yesterday and removed the carbon from the filter as I've put some medication in, the Domino Molly has a fungal infection, which is now clearing up. When I removed the carbon, I cleaned (in old aquarium water) 2 of the 4 foam filter pads and added in some new Biomax into the now empty trap (from the Carbon) the filter - it's an external Fluval 205 filter. The carbon will get replaced next week when the Molly is fuly recovered. All the othe…

I've been thinking this over for a while now, I have a Fazer 600, 2005 that I (just about) swapped last year for a Varadero 125 that my missus had. I've ridden it a few times but It's just to, erm, how do I put it, Fizzy! I just don't like the way you have to wind it up to make it go, I like to be able to pull away with low revs and push the bike on. Don't get me wrong, this is a great bike for someone just past their test (or who've never had a big bike with loads of torque) - it's just not for me. So, I've been looking at what I can get to replace it. I need something that me and the misus can ride in comfort (the rear seat on the Tenere is just too high for her to g…

Just been over to my neares Yamaha dealers to take a look at the new XVS950A Midnight Star. I have to say it is absolutely GORGEOUS. Its light, comfortable and i do beleive Yamaha may have got it right this time. Looks wise, its sleek and sexy, the matt black compliments the chrome and tones it down a tad which i think looks so much better than the gloss black frame of the 650. The only thing im not keen on it the fact that the brake fluid reservoir is right on the front, but i can live with that. So - am now negotiating with the dealer for one of these babies - fingers crossed for monday!

Stumbled across this site earlier today http://www.r6-forum.com

Hi everyone, sorry for the short notice but the Yamaha Owners Club wesSite will be down from 1300 GMT Tuesday 3/Feb so that we can move our hosting. This should take under 48 hours. Our new hosting will be on a distrubuted server platform which will mean that the site will be much more reliable and since several servers will be answering your queries rather than one, much much quicker :-) The inconvenience will be worth it!
