Hi Guys. Just introducing myself to everyone. Well ,where to start? Ahh! At the beginning! Been around bikes for around 35 yrs,mostly Yams,of course with the odd courier exception.Started off on a Yam SS50 and progressed through to DT100,RD200,RD250dxd,RS100,FZR750.Exceptions-My old departed fav.MZ150,kwacker triple and 3 x CX500.Oops!,nearly forgot the Geep 9R Recently sold the fizzer due to the old bones playing up(i,m only 50),and have just bought,and i mean tonight! a lovely FZS600s (year2000).So, i,m back to my roots and back on the road again. I,m quite a decent mechanic(bred from necessity and 2 redundancies)and may be of some minor help to anyone with 80,s bi…

as above, but when I point it to the selected pic on my drive it attempts to upload but after a while I get the message "Failed to set photo".

Hi all, I am a newbie to this site. I was hoping that someone may be able to help me a problem that's been causing me to pull my hair out, and to be jonest I can't afford to lose any more! I bought a 2003 TW125 for my son. When we went to buy it, it would run and rev but not tick over, (at this point we should have walked away). The seller said it was probably a blocked slow running jet due to lack of use and that some carb cleaner in the fuel with a long run should sort it. Well we bought the bike and did that, but nothing changed? After checking for splits and air leaks on the inlet rubber, I removed the carb, stripped, cleaned and blew compressed air everywhere (it was…

Hi all, just after a bit of advice if possible. I purchased a 05 YBR 125 a few months ago, been right through it and carried out a full service, renewed all filters, renewed engine oil, renewed spark plug, checked valve clearance and cleaned out carb. All straight forward and ready for the road.......BUT......it starts fine but then takes ages, well 10 to 15 mins to warm up enough so its rideable without cutting out as soon as the throttle is twisted. My question is; Can anything more be done to improve this or are all YBRs 125 like this? Many thanks

hi all just wanted to introduce myself im from the yorkshire area and just got my first bike about a year ago... yamaha ybr 125

How do i post something on the new members page??

I joined last night and paid for Professional Membership, the payment has gone through but I have no confirmation of this on my profile or by email. I need a membership number for my insurance company and I can't ride my bike until it's sorted out. Best regards Chris

Hi I'm reasonably new and posted in the new members section that I'll try harder to post regularly etc, I thought getting email Notifications would help me remember where I'd posted so can anyone help me with what the settings should be please? I've managed to get it so that it's 'watching' two topics but I've posted on others as well! Confused. Thanks

i want to search for posts about my bike, a DT 125 LC mk2 but i do not know how to search for this as it only lets you search for words and "DT 125 LC MK2" contains no words. how can i filter results to just show ones relevant to my bike? cheers

I have never posted (before this then) and I sold my Yamaha. I was looking for a way to remove my account but couldn't find anything about that in the settings or by searching the forum. So, how do I do it?
