Recently found this again during a pic search yesterday ....... Gotta believe this little Beast would have 1 helluva exhaust note when it's on the boil

Funniest thing I've seen in decades! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8fkd1eTQ7U&feature=related "they're gonna beat our asses!"

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…

hhhmmmmmm wot you reckon ??????????

Hi All, Just picked up a 82 XJ750, needs a new exhaust amongst other things. Just wondering will a exhaust system from a XJ900 fit a XJ750 or are there any other models that will fit. Thanks in advance for the help Regards Will

Just curious as I'm selling my YBR125 at the moment and have advertised it in a few places. However, I was wondering if a dealer would buy it even if I wasn't trying to buy one off them? I realise they'd only offer me crappy trade prices but this may give me more flexibility to buy a bike privately since there are much better deals out there to be made on private sales at the mo (if buying used).

i have an 2003 plate dtr 125 and im wondering is the 04> frame the same? or will the new pannels fit? its just that the 2003 modle looks old its the same one they used in like the 80s and i fancy moddin it up lol any help woould be much apprecited thanks x

i never thought stoner would stay on his ducati never mind win races. thought ducati were mad to drop gibernau and give stoner a ride .hes really given rossi a run for his money ,maybe it will bring out more of rossi genuis ,what do you think .of to donnington in couple of weeks hopefully yamaha can squeeze a bit more out of the bike ,watch this space ! lets have your thoughts interested in views on all riders this year

Hi all, Just picked up a nice set of used Scorpion cans & link pipes at what I think was good value. Now, they don't have a BS stamp, but on the flip side they aren't stamped as 'not for road use' Reckon the bike will pass MOT with them on? It's a while off, and no big job swooping them back off for the test, but I'm curious!

Got hold of some Dunlop GeoMax Enduro tyres, but need to know if they will fit! Front looks like it will be ok, rear im not too sure on, but think its probably possible running road pressures, off road im not so sure! Front: 90/90 - 21 Rear: 140/80 - 18 Anyone have any ideas?

hi could really apritiate if any one knows if the yamaha xt 125 x wheels will go straight on to my yamaha xt 125R ????

Will changing the sprokets help me go up hills better ? My ybr struggles getting up the big hilpl when coming home from work but it is fine on the flat and down hills but will not go over 40 ish on this bank and as its a 60 mph road I look a right div LOL is thee a way to make this improve ? I have spoken to a lad at work about this and he said he changed his on his old ybr , what he didw was add ane extra tooth on the front and what that did was make it faster on the flat but made his fifth gear non existent but that would be no good for me,is there a way to do what I'm looking for ?
