IGNORE!

Im Lynn and just changing from car to bike, all ive heard is "your a bit long in the tooth arent you" , ive got so fed up im reverting to ignoring comments now lol, did my CBT August 5th, Passed with flying colours seeing as ive never sat on a bike before...loved it. Found myself a sweet 06 YBR just hoping they still have it on Friday, if so ill be coming home on it! , planning on getting some experience then doing my test.

I've been looking at what people are saying they are paying for their insurance- and it's been pretty steep. I've only been quoted fully comp 280, tptf 162. ive just passed and the bike is a fzs600 with 1 yr no claims. Is this right or am I seeing things?

so, just wondered what peoples views were on the WR250R? I would be using it for my daily short commute to work, then when i get better/ more experienced/ confident on it would then consider the odd green lane. opinions on the bike if anyone knows it please.....

how much does it cost to respray a bike? does design higher the price? and how do u make sure your datatagging shows through? cheers david

I've picked up my new yammy majesty 400 last month, I love the bike but....from new it has had this little buzzing plastic sort of noise coming from what I thought was a panel. It has got a little worse now and I have tried to find it without any luck. It seems to be coming from behind the clocks..... Anyone else had experience of this? Cheers

Hi people im new to yamaha's and this site. my problem is ive just bought a mint 98 r1 in red and white but i think its vibrating more than it should. do r1's vibrate. also its got quite a loud squeeling noise around 7000rpm.ive just had the carbs balanced and changed the chain and sprockets. im used to vtwins so it might be just me.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you that's Iron Butt territory. It's pretty much a run against the clock, so I'm not going to be able to enjoy many of the sites Europe has to offer, that is my sacrifce.
