Hi there, i have just bought a 1981 3Y8 which needs some work done and am looking for the appropriate manuel. thanks for any help!

I dropped my bike last friday pulling out of a car park. Just hit some frost on the raod and with cold tyres too it just went from under me. Fortunatley the low speed means the damage is minimal. It was the right hand side and i'v already ordered the new levers, bars, etc, which hasn't come to much and fortunatley i have the standard exhaust in the garage. Anyway it has lightly scuffed the fairing in about 3 places and i'm looking for a descent bodyshop to take the bike too to have it re-sprayed/touched up. I had crash bungs and the damage is so light i believe i could even touch it up myself but i don't mind spending the money to have the bike back to a great stan…

Hi all. I am a newbie into the biking world at 25. I am looking at getting an XT125R Brand new with the view that I may have it a year before taking my test. I know nothing of bikes currently so buying new will give me the ultimate peace of mind. Are there any owners of the XT125R on here. Should I post in the relevant bike section for owners views. Thanks in advance.

how do you upload pictures from your pc to the fourms?

i have been absent for a while from this forum, but in the mean time, i have been restoring a Vintage SR125 (1982), which has also ben my sole means of transport. last night, some pollock reversed in to it causing a not cheap amount of damage. bearing in mind that i have spent in excess of £900 getting it up to an almost compleate stage (just neding a fuel tank re-spray, an exhaust and a left hand side panel) this guy reverses in to it and causes this damage: A smashed head lamp fixing, bent brackets, snapped mud guard, break lever snapped off, break pedal bent in to engine casing, forks bent, bearing set/ yolk bit that connects to the frame is damaged.in all, i requi…

Can anyone identify the pipes in this picture???

my xv1700 is an import 6mnths old but i have found out today not supported by yamaha uk warrenty to me if its a yamaha it should be covered for the two yrs any where in the world ! tried to contact them about this any one got a phone number or contact in the uk i can ask why this is happening ?? if i buy a yamaha bike when abroad and bring it homes its not covered ? and would it be the same if i bought a bike here and went to live any where else ??? seems very small minded and weird to me !

I am a new rider and I feel like I am doing pretty good except that I accidently give the bike gas when i am braking sometimes. Everyone who has looked at my bike says that the brake lever is too far a reach for my hands. The yamaha dealer in town says that they do not know of any way to adjust this other than having someone heat the aluminum brake lever and slightly adjust the shape. This will however weaken the metal possibly causing it to snap. This really unnerves me when it happens but I do not know how to fix it. Does any one know of any brake levers that will fit a Yamaha 250 Virago that has a steeper angle ( making it closer to the throttle)??????

Hi guys I'm another new guy I saw the site and thought it looked just the job to see if there was any info out there about clubs or meeting places around the Durham/Newcastle area. I'm new to the area and thought it would be a good way to find my way around. If you have any info, give me a shout guys. cheers all

As I feel the weight of impending fatherhood (any day now) and I have sold some of my toys, reducing my bikes down to 5 at the moment (and 1 kit car), I feel the need for a futile and rash purchase, maybe a v-max. Maybe I could street fighter it, then add a turbo? R1 USDs on the front? Oh god, I'm drooling into the keyboard.
