Hi, How can I change my country flag to a welsh dragon ? Many thanks. ?

I recently purchased a v-star650 custom 2003, joining a club/forum is always a great way to get info on bike and research troubles, if any. 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

Hey All, Since my last post I haven't been able to get a quote from the Yamaha insurance site, it may have had technical prob's? So on my search on the net I stumbeld across this site www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk Excellent! Saved me money! It's definately worth giving them a go if any one is looking? Cheers guys!

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…

Hi everyone i have just sold my vfr vtec and now have a lovely fz1 fazer. the ut i only have short legs so i was wondering if ther is a lowering kit thats easy to fit. The rear shocker has been wound down but its to soft so i want to put it backto factory setting

potential MT01/03 owners, There is a webb site totaly devoted to this model www.MT-owners-club.org.uk Gloucestershire MTowner the Rat

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

Well after a mad moment i sold my fazer 600, and after a gpz 900, scooter, and a bandit 600 i am now back on a 52 reg fazer, and my first question is WHY DID I SELL well i am back for better or worse so i would like to say hi to all and as i am planning a big trip next year i will be asking for advice in the future, thanks, Kev.

I passed my test today and rode my Virago 250 for the first time, wow!

Hi, As I said in my introduction,I am soon to be a learner,and quite like the XVS Dragstar,it was what brought me to Yamaha(love v-twins). What I would like to ask of you more experienced folk here,any oppinions on the XVS 125,is it a worthwhile first bike and if I may ask,what weak points do they have,something I should look for when buying? I have a friend with a Thundercat,who promises to help me with the buying,but this style of bike is different to his,is there any real difference apart from the obvious engine and style?

Hi, I have XJ 900 58L -89 and I changed oil today; but why does the stick in the little window shows that it´s full after 1 liter? Can I fill up with 1,5 liter or what...? TIA /Raster

The lawyer and the duck A big city lawyer went duck hunting in rural Wales. He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked him what he was doing. The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and now I'm going to retrieve it." The old farmer replied, "This is my property, and you are not coming over here." The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the United Kingdom and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything The ol…

George Bush has a heart attack and dies. He goes to hell where the Devil is waiting for him. "I don't know what to do," says the Devil, "You're on my list but I have no room for you, but you definitely have to stay here. So, I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got 3 people here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of >them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves." George thought that sounded pretty good, so he agreed. The devil opened the first room. In it was Ted Kennedy and a large pool of water. He kept resurfacing over and over and over, gasping for air. Such was his fate in hell. "No!" George said, "I don't think…
