Hi Guys and Gals This is my 1st post as im very new to biking at the ageof 33!! you know how it goes, ill do my test this year and it goes on and on then finally get round to do your test, anyway I aint the samllest of people but I find that if there is a hint of a strongish wind it feels like the bike is going to go from under me. Sometimes the bike slides sideways, and can frighten the shite out of ya, Am I doing something wrong? I ride a TDM 850 Thanks

alright! got my YZ400 cylinder... plopped right on without any worries. the cylinder head studs are a shorter length than the DTs, but i have yet to try and remove the studs from one of my DT cylinders to see if i can pull them off. if i can, i could swap them out. the reed cages are different, although the early YZs and DT bikes seem to use the same reeds according to boyesen. so there will still be a bit of research, and parts sourcing... but it's a good start it seems. the head plopped right on too, save for the stud length. just the debate is whether i use a DT series piston, or a YZ series piston? i am leaning towards the YZ series. although i don't have a year…

Last week a mate came round and helped me to put in new brakes in my thundercat and also showed me how to adjust my chain (no im not a lady only wear the skirt in the house ) only bit new to the motorbike thingy.Anyway we went off for a short ride from Lowestoft to Peterboro sat just gone and i was paranoid as the bike was not as smooth or handling as it used to even thought did i tighten up that rear axle nut you know like when you go off on holiday and think did i turn the cooker off etc.This was doing me all day even stopped on the way as i thought i could smell burning.Mate convinced me that it was all in my head anyway we got to TAZ motorcycles and spent £5 on a nec…

EBoz has always been 1 of my fav riders from over here.....really glad to see him flying on an R6 these days! Daytona ought to be good this year

....The Go-Show back in action on a Yamaha again.........on an R6 no less!

Well it's been 3 or 4 years since I've been skiing @ Mt. Hood Meadows resort......always liked this view from just the parking lot .... It definitely coulda been clearer for weather, but the temps & wind I sure couldn't complain about! For my fellow 2-wheel Compadre's.....This is only 1 reason I Love to Ski! ... As you can see, Mt. Jefferson & the 3 Sisters are fairly clear in view..... Those mountains are halfway down the state of Oregon. But on a really clear day, I've seen Mt. Shasta waaay off in the distance ......that's over an 8 hour drive clear down in California! 1 more from a different, more challenging run..... …

Hey guys, does anyone know if car insurance companies will except no claims earned on a motorcycle? I've heard that some place will allow it but can't remeber the source. It only seems fair as you are more likely to have an accident on a bike. Cheers Robbie

hi, everyone. I was hoping someone could help me solve a mysterious problem that has had mechanics all round the country scratching their heads! I have had a problem with my clutch! I have a 2002 yzf r1 with only 10,000 on the clock and i have a difficulties changing gear when she's cold. She wont let me put it in to first gear without stalling. Not any problems when going up the gears. I have had the plates out and had them looked at by 3 Yamaha approved mechanics(no names mentioned eh ) but they can't see anything physically wrong with it! . Please help

...the '06 R6 is so popular with most people ..... Seems like it'll be a worthy adversary for the other 600's this year... Judging by the way Jason DiSalvo is exiting this turn @ the Laguna test recently.

hey guys... new to the forum... seems like a pretty cool place. i got my first yamaha last week. it needs a lot of help, but should be a fun overall project.. it's a 1976 DT400. own a number of other machines, but this one is pretty greek to me (a bunch of little bits like compression releases that i have never messed with before, and apparently a 6 volt electrical system). i am hoping to build a street tracker out of the thing... just think that would be pretty fun way to go with it, and look pretty sharp in the process. figured i would find people who know more than i do on here, and attempt to pick some brains, and add what i can to the forum while i am at it. well,…

Hi folks A question for you that I've asked elsewhere, I want to fit R1 blue spot front brake calipers to my FJ1200, a fairly standard mod. The question is, are Fazer/R6 front calipers the same as R1, I know they look the same but do they give the same improvement in efficiency? Seen a set on ebay cheaper than R1. Thanks, Big Bob

Good afternoon, Could anyone advise if there is such a thing as a Yamaha Rajdoot Owners Club in the UK? Many thanks in advance and kind regards, Crissy www.hsocuk.com
