I guess we have all seen the R71's on TV but getting down to the nitty gritty, you can get a fresh R1 motor for not too much and an R6 quite reasonably. Not sure about R7's though.. How hard is it really going to be to make an R71 or an R61 ? Would the R6 be much weaker base for the 1 litre beastie than an R7 ? The inspiration for this comes from seeing a heap of cool R1's and such like, gotta have something a bit different next year.... J

Hi all! Got a query regarding my fizzer! I got an fzr600r on a 95 plate (incase you didn't guess!). Does anyone have problems with excessive softness in front forks? And gotta say I had the bike 6 months and think its an excellent all rounder!!! Dean

Hello again, Following on from my last post about zorst, rearsets and the paint job I've had done. I take a pillion almost every time I go out, who likes the grabrail that I had fitted. Unfortunately although the said rail is very practical (Renntec) it is a bit unsightly and I don't want to put it back on my newly painted baby (YZF) Would a small trick rail from another bike fit, even though I know that I'll have to extend the subframe somehow. Any one with experience of this or good ideas please help as it's doing my head in. Rob......... :cry:

I've got an old YZF 750r and after many years have decided that I love the bike but I could no longer live with the colour (Barbie Cocktail) So, respray!, Shakey at Supanova has done a fantastic job. Fools and their money are easily parted so, I am now looking for an after market can and rearsets, both of which I don't want to break the bank Any help would be much appreciated.

hey everyone, i am new here, just bought a 1997 yamaha yzf-600r thundercat. i am a Yank as it were, and since there isnt a big following of the thundercat across the pond, i figured i'd try here. if anyone has any info on how to make the thundercat better, stronger and faster, i'd love to hear it. got pics of it as it was when i bought it (soon it will be all blue) at www.geocities.com/will_sati/bike thanks for any input! sorry if my english is a little different!

For the 1st time since 2000, Yamaha is jumping back in the WSB ring for '05 8) Andrew Pitt did 75 laps @ Valencia on the Upgraded machine....... I'm looking forward to seeing some more Inline4's take it to Ducati & their grip on that series. :wink:

Am looking at getting a TZR for my birthday, but would it be worth paying a little bit extra for the 250 ready for when that restrictor "falls off" :shock: Basically, would it give me the extra performance to justify paying the extra?

(had just replaced the bulb only a month ago)....so I limped it back home & actually Drove my truck to work......which bugs the sh*t outta me So when I got home, I went through what spares I have left (from my old XJ550) just to see if I could pinpoint the prob.

I'm planning to put a YZF600 Thundercat ('98-'03) front end on my RZ350 and am wondering what parts interchange with R6 (more people must fall off R6's as there are way more used parts out there). I guess what I'm after is; -Can I put a Thudercat wheel in R6 forks? -What are the axle diameters? -Do R6 calipers bolt on to Thundercat forks ('98-'03)? Thanks
