Naked

what do you tjink of this as a litle bargain my old escort is a fuel guzzler and no one knows why it has done 65 miles this week on £20 worth of fuel there is no leaks it has had all the right bits done ie krypton tune then a new carb and another krypton tune so its scrap now i bought a l reg 94 model ford fiesta 1.8 diesel with tax and mot til september it has a very small amount of surface rust its done a genuine 24k from new it has is a bloody beautifal drive compared to the escort and it does 50-55 mpg which is fine for me and i paid a bargain of a pric for it £100 the bloke in westbury didnt have no idea what it was worth so im happier now

HAS ANY ONE BEEN PULLED WITH A FULL DEP SYSTEM YET CUS THE FRONT PIPE IS SO NOISY :eek I WONDERED IF IT IS ILEGAL,BECUASE OF THE NOISE AND I KNOW MY BIKE WONT PASS THE M.O.T[-X WITH IT ON ANY WAY CHERRS LUKE

At Ride on this morning, wtf is it with that head light it's fekn horrible!!, the rest of the bike's ok. All in all it's just a reshaped fazer. But what really got me was the new R1 with the pipe's coming out under the seat, :tu fekn ace!!. Now how can I get that yzf to look like that I wonder :-k

Bought a Diversion 600 recently. A quite nice bike, suitable for my needs. But the idling is a little bit unsmoot, the cluths behaviors aggressivly, and there is some rattle from the engine. The bike is from -91, so I suppose there is some natural signs of age. But generally, what goes wrong with these bikes? Are there some wellknown "weak spots" of this bike? LJA/Finland

On my end can? but I took it out last night, but to be honest I dont notice any diffirence at all! (speed wise), Y'see it's a straight through pipe anyway It's a bit more noisier but thats it, should I just put it back in, 2 mates reckoned the wadding was strangling the power, but it's me who's riding it not them!!. And personally I dont feel any change apart from like I say some more noize, it's not deffining loud just a bit. Btw.....How can you get an Akrapovic/Micron can, I thought It would be either one or the other :?

I hope you guys can give me some advice. I am buying a 03 plate DT125 and want to de-restrict but my local shop is telling me that you cannot open up the power valve on this, they have said I can put a DEP exhaust on but that it wont make that much difference. Any suggestions?

hi just wondering if any knows if a powervalve servo kit of a TZR250 will fit onto a 1993 dt125r? CHeers ross

Mozzy your supposedly the man to talk to about DT's and their many possibilities, but anyone else who has tried out a good set of grippy tyres for it please post and let me bloody know!!! Trailwings suck!!!

Very comprehensive list here: http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/clasqm/yamaha.html

when i take my hands off the bars the wheel judders a bit, i'm thinking steering head bearings, could it be this? tyres are fine so cant be that :?

went to castle coombe it was absolutley fucking brilliant seen a subaru impreza p1 write his car by showing off, a honda crx that thrashed 5 skylines and a evo dont know what was under the bonnet but it was rapid and richard let me drive his pulsar on the track cam 3rd against 3 skylines 3 scoobys 3 evo 8 fq 360s 2 supras and a lancia delta hf turbo and really surprised myself that i didnt lose it once on any of the corners i took the hair pin at just under a ton but it helps thats its light 4 wheel drive with 17 inch alloys and coilovers scary but fun got some photos i will put them on soon

hey guys can u help me out my oil light comes on a it wont turn off i was reving my bike in the garage reved it up to 8000 and the oil light just come on and wont turn off there is engine oil and 2 stroke oil and when i rev it i can smell 2 stroke someone help cheers luke!!!!!!!!!!!!! :twisted:

basicly how is it done? i have been told its some little pin thing you pull out or something but i have no idea. On the newer model you do something with the servo for the powervalve but thats a the problem a 1993 deet doesent have one! any one got any ideas cos it only does bout 65ish and thats with a full big one re-jetted carb 240 and a pipercross! Cheers ross

just came back from the tumbridge wells rounds, very nice round, was with my mates on 400's, and they were leaning and stuff, all very nice... so anyway, unfamiliar territory put me on this fast twisty road which was much fun til i reached this Unholy corner at 50 on a DT..... Good gravy i'v never filled my pants so fast before.... LOCKED THE BACK BREAK :shock: , LOCKED THE FRONT :shock: ...WENT STRAIGHT ON DOWN INTO SOME GUYS DRIVE HALF WAY THROUGH THE CORNER, finally came to a stop and theres this old guy stairring at me questionning me about speeding in a 30 zone... bloody 400's and there grip i tell you, :? other than that was a good ride.

can anyone recommend a wavey disc supplier as i'm struggling to get hold of some for a 2001 R1.........

Hi I new to this site, so go easy on me.....Anyway I went to see a 94' YZF 750 the other night, now it's seems not to bad but it's been advertised as a "streetfighter", mmmm!!. Been "down the road" probably, anyway I'm supposed to go out tonight to see how good/bad it drives. Apart from no fairing/not the proper clocks/h/light everything seems pretty much ok!. But the seat hight looks (to me) a bit on the high side, as if it's either had the reat rails/shock raised a bit. It's an M reg 94', I dont know the miles because it's not the right clocks, and the seller doesn't know, or not saying. Should I just keep well away from it, or is worth taking the risk, thanks for any h…

.....are forming a strategic partnership in China to develop the Chinese market, which is the largest in the world. No doubt that some of the bikes will be exported into the European market at some time. Yamaha engined bikes at dirt cheap prices? http://www.china.org.cn/english/BAT/95384.htm

So, I just bought my 96 virago 250 yesterday and I'm having issues shifting to second gear. When I shift, there is a 15 second delay of the engine responding to the throttle. I give it gas and it doesn't go, then 15 seconds later it like takes off!! What am I doing wrong??? Could it be the jets or the fuel pump? Also, I'm looking for patient people to ride with. I'm in the bay area. Anyone sympathetic to a new rider?? I need help!!! I feel so stupid...

Hi all, Probably pushing much luck a little here, launched a forum for all things Yamaha last. Being in the army I ain't spent much time on but circumstances have changed and I've given it a much needed overhaul. Just looking for a few people who are willing to join it and help give it the kick start in needs. Regards MacYam www.yamachat.co.uk (A link to Yamaha Club has been added in Yamachat)
