Hello. Could someone point me to a good resource for vintage Yamahas? I would really love a new bike, but my financial means have led me to a nice looking '74 DT-175 Enduro and I just want to find out as much as I could about these older bikes. Any leads to places for reviews, discussions, maintenance help and resources for parts would be appreciated. I'm not dismissing this site - it just seems a little out of my league until I one day build up my own high-performance armada of super-bikes. - Dan

I see alot of posts from the UK, is this site originated in the UK? or have i missed something in my settings. Enjoy reading all the posts and wish everybody well. Paul

Hi, Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Phil from Belfast and I bought a 2004 FZ6S (the 'eurofazer') at the end of November last year. So far I have put about 2,000 miles on it and enjoyed every minute of it. This is my first 'big bike' as my previous one was a 1976 Honda 400/4 (that I sold yesterday after 10 years). I have had various smaller bikes over the years since my first - FS1E (in purple) in 1974. Brand new and on-the-road including 1 year's fully comp insurance for £220 !!!

Hello everyone, I've just purchased a mint 04 plate r6, it has 3300 miles, braided brake hoses, polished sprocket, full set of bungs, and is absolutly spotless. This is my first bike, I used to own a twin turbo supra and was a member of www.MKIVsupra.net, I had to sell the car recently though due to the wife being preggers, and the car was costing far too much. I'm also moving out to a bigger house and the supra just sapped to much money from me every month. I decided that I still wanted something that would make me smile everytime I went to work, so I've booked a direct access course next week and bought this little beauty. She's sitting in my garage now wait…

Recently bought the above, with which I am very pleased, slowed me down somwhat, my other bikes an Aprilia, is there another owner out there, Gloucestershire perhaps we could have a pint. The local Harley group is having an event we could go and piss the H.O.G.s off! Sounds better, made better,handles better and brakes!! Which makes a point, Yam Mt01 looks good,sounds good,90bhp, 85 at 3000R.P.M, handles reasonably, bit heavy, great for short blasts/thunder in the sun. Aprilia SL Falco, 118BHP, comfortable,better than RSV, 195Kg,no wind double bubble, seriously quick for an old git like me, one of the …

I joined the club yesterday and then posted an intro in the wrong place! Typical! Nobody will see it in the middle of Street bikes and stuff. Hi everyone. I pick up my new MT-01 today and am sitting here full of excitement and a fair bit of trepidation! Anyone else out there with an MT and can give any advice - other than hang on tight?!! Dave
