The Bar

I mean it, DO NOT underestimate Finnerez on his dt, ok on an open road you may toast him. But you will be lured into its web of country roads full of blind apex bends and he is GONE. That thing changes direction like a housefly, you will be humbled. You have been warned

Hey folks, today a nice police lady informed me that in the near future, if I get caught sitting on the green bicycle box at traffic lights with my MOTORbike, I'll get fined 120 smackers and get three points on my license. Oh joy! I mean seriously 3 points? Like when you get caught speeding? Because it's just as bad/dangerous? Sure give the cagers 3 points when they do it, with their fat arses taking up all the space on the green box but bikers? Come ooooooon! Grumph. And indeed harrumph...

Hi Everyone Whilst out on my bike Friday evening I pulled in at a local bar for a Shandy as you do there were lots of people sat outside enjoying the sun whilst I was walking thorough the people some one I know not as a Friend said why have you come down here on that little thing well I saw red straight away I think this chap owns a Fireblade we did get into a heated debate about the virtues of owning a small bike its a shame people have to be like this I love my bike its great fun and that's the main thing in my book.

hello im 17 and thinking of doing my test to restrict me to 33bhp for 2 years and i was wondering if any of you know how hard it is because ive heard alot about the dreaded swerve test just looking for a bit of info on it really. cheers webi

Finally passed my mod 2 and despite half hearted promises (mainly to the mrs) about keeping the ybr's fuel economy and cheap parts it just doesn't feel right after riding an xj6! I'm on a bit of a budget and have seen a few of the older xj600n's knocking around on eBay and auto Trader at a bargain price. For people that have owned them, are they fairly decent year-round commuters, or would I be better off trying to wait for a mid mileage fz6 or (if it's not swearing to mention on here) a S**uki SV or Bandit? Are there any common issues I should be looking out for if I buy one? Looking on Google it seems like the exhausts are quite expensive to replace. For selli…

Im one the verge off buying aload of ttr performance parts Digitally reprogrammable CDI 150cc BBR Bore Kit Hot Cams (comes with bore kit) Has anyone out there attempted this ? I know im better off getting a bigger bike and its waste of money But that's not why im doing this Its all in the name of fun after trawling the internet for XT Big bore kits I found nothing forums seem to suggest the TTR Kit but nothing to say it actually work but after checking shit loads of photo and measurements theres virtually no difference on the engines this is more of a last check before I buy cus either way im trying It would just be nice to know I have changed Carb mai…

So I'm pootling around on my 125, and it's great for commuting the 3 miles to work, but I want more. Looking to try for my big boy license, and everywhere I turn people are trying to sell me 14hr+ direct access packages. Not a bad way to make £600, but then I am a cynic. Perhaps I'm just being overconfident, but I've had a car license for 10 years, so I know the rules of the road. I ride to and from work every day in rush hour traffic and I'm not dead yet (6 months now). Is it really that hard to pass your test? I've spoken to a few riders who are family/friends, and they've said take a few lessons then just bang in for your test, see what happens. I'm incline…

As a further commitment to developing YamahaClub, Alex has purchased the Invision Power Board commercial forum software. I've spent half the day doing a database conversion from the old board and this is the end result. But please note that the url to use for the forum is now http://www.yamahaclub.com/forums/index.php This is different from the previous one and the only reason you got here is that there's a redirect in place on the server. So change your bookmarks NOW! Your account, passwords, post count, threads, and posts are all exactly as they were on the old board. Nothing has changed in that respect. All you will need to do is to sign in again when you …

Final job interview for one of, if not the largest UK advertising mediums. Won't tell u what it is exactly coz I'm nervy as hell, starting to shake ever so gently - been through 2 face to face interviews already and a silly phone interview all with flying colours. Just spent the best part of a week preparing a Power Point presentation for it - something sales reps and ad reps need to do all the time - 'Death By Power Point' but I'm crap at it hence why it's taken soooo looong. It's the biggest job I've ever gone for in my life and man, I am really strung out especially when you consider I haven't done Jack for the last 8 months odd and that crap the other day f…

Notched up my first 100 miles today! And got my first official biker nod on the road :-D

Extracted from SW bikers A guy in a restaurant ordered squid and the waiter took him to a large tank in the corner to choose one. After studying all the squid in the tank he settled on a small green one in the corner with a moustache, the thing was obviously frightened probably knowing why he was there. The waiter took the sqid from the tank into the kitchen where Gervais the chef was waiting and gave him the order. Gervais placed the quivvering squid on the table and lifted the large mallet high to strike down on the poor creature, but as he did he noticed a tear running from the squid's eye. For the first time ever Gervais suffered an attack of concience burtsi…

Hi, Just thought I'd mention this as its slightly different to all the other dragstars I've read about. I have drilled holes in the intake letting air float in there more easily, but its kept its standard air filter, as I dont think its that restrictive without the narrow rubber in there and in being drilled at the back of the sheild. The exhausts are circle cut out at the back, and I'm running the needle higher by one notch, and the main jet is a #101 size. The highest I've seen, is a 100 jet, and AFAIK, no one has touched the needle. Is this ok, for what mods I've done because the plugs are fine, no coking or soot. I'm guessing, it should be still fine…

A buddy came back from hell today and I saw some pictures today of what's going on in Sri Lanka. The news reports don't do it justice. She is a relife worker for Christian Aid - wasn't supposed to go out until Feb 4th but due to the current crisis, went a day after the Tsunami happened. I almost went but I didn't realise you have to pay to go as an aid worker - a month in hell would cost £1100 so I had to decline. I'm told that it is so horrible that the only way to get through it is to try to mentally detach yourself from it all otherwise you'd go mad. She says that everything seems to conspire against you - even setting up a pyre to burn some rotting corpses…

Just a hello to all you guys and dolls out there!
