i recently traded my '82 suzuki gs450t and $2000 for a 2004 yamaha fz6. i was wondering if there were any things i should be warned about with these bikes. what are the weak points in design that normally tend to break or need to be beefedup. if anyone knows id appreciate the information.

hi every one i have just join your club i have got 2010 xj6 f diversion which i brought last week

Hi, Brief intro... I'm on my 3rd Yamaha now since i started riding a neos scooter at 16, i thrashed the hell out of it and it was faster than my mates and never blew up yet their 50's contantly did so this made me a yamaha loyal. 2nd was a YBR 125, good on fuel but boring as hell, that got stolen and i didn't even have cover for theft, so that was more than annoying. i'm now i'm on a DT 125 LC mk 2 that i bought the other day stripped down wire brushed and sanded all the crappy old flakey paint and rust off, repainted, fresh bolted and restored the plastics. It had apparently had an engine rebuild 35miles ago so i didn't bother touching the engine, 26miles into…

Hi all my name is Hedley, I'm 31 and have recently bought my first bike. its only a 2000 xvs 125 and its 16 years haven been too kind. so you'll all be getting some questions from me over my attempt to restor and not further bugger up my partly buggered bike. :)

Hi I'm new to this my name is Charlie and from Southampton I have a dt125mx just restored and a dt250mx which I'm restoring now

Hi I'm chris and im addicted to any toys that take petrol i have a dt125 lc mk1 100cc blaney fx quad 6.5hp Murray go-kart and am currently working on my other half to get a wr250. I'm having some trouble with my bike I bought a dt125 mark1 lc about 18 months ago, it was in pretty bad shape cosmetically seemed to run ok albiet topend was poor and start first time on the kick. When I open her up it loses power to the point of being in top gear and dropping it to 3rd just to get it moving again. Thought it could be a exhaust problem as it was welded leaking and all the rest of it so went and bought a new big one exhaust, changed air filter box for k&n style filter and I'…

New member just returned to Yamaha after an affair with a Honda. Live in Birmingham and ride a Fazer 600. She's 20 years old with only 17k on the clock. I have restored and repaired several Yamaha models from 2 strokes to suoerbikes. I want to be a active member of the forum please don't be afraid to talk to me. Glad to be back to the Yamaha family. Nice to meet you all.

Hi all I'm Harley. I've got my cbt booked for the 16th and bought myself my first bike this morning. I got a 2000 VSX Dragstar. What I'd like to do eventually is custom it a bit, I'm into the whole bobber style. I'm sure you'll see me on here asking questions all the time.

Hi I'm Mike a 22 year old tree surgeon from Kent. I fairly recently bought a Yamaha XT 125 X and have nothing but trouble since day 1 any how i'm here for advice on my running repairs/maintenance, riding technique improvement, advice for progressing to a bigger bike and general chat. And reasons why I shouldn't have bought an XT 125 X haha. Thanks Mike

Hi there, my name is Mike and I have a black 09 R1 "Long Bang" with a full Leo Vince Evo system and I have flashed the ECU and de-restricted it, adjusted the engine braking and loaded a fuel map to the ECU (not needing a PowerCommander) Good to meet you all ! Mike

Hi there can anyone help me I'd like to make exhaust sound better the the stander 1 I've got but I'm finding it hard to find anything on eBay any ideas many thanks

Just purchased a 1976 yamaha dt400 enduro. The magneto has been removed and I am going to either need a new magneto, stator. Any help with pictures or wiring diagram appreciated. Thanks

I'm new just bought a 2001 Yamaha VStar 1100 and thought I'd try and find a forum that I could read and talk to other people into motorcycles, especially Yamaha Motorcycles. I'm in Southern California in the High Desert and am just starting to ride, so nice to meet ya all and hope to add more after I read more in the forums.

Hi, My names Rich nickname Snowy I have recently bought a 2010 XJ6 N & I am very pleased with it Last weekend I joined a few thousand other bikers mainly Harley,s to cross the old severn bridge aptly named "Hoggin the bridge" That was a great experience & will definitely be doing it again next year hoping to ge to the motorcycle show at the NEC at the end of the month

Hey guys, love the forum. I was hoping someone would help me decode the vin on my bike. It's a DT 125, please raise this query in the classic, garage or offroad section. this is for introductions

Hi all I just got my self a dt 200 wr to have some fun on and use for back and for to work can't wait to use it love the smell of two stroke brings me back to my fifty days ha it's a clean bike just needs some tlc a fork seal a tyre and she'll be on the road can't wait could do with some decals as they been removed and some sm wheels and a exhaust as its really quiet

I've recently bought a Neos4, so it's only 50cc and I'm limited to 30mph. But I do get 129mpg. Can anyone tell me if the speedometer is accurate? I'm hitting 34mph, but is the speedo set deliberately to read high, am I only doing 30mph when it says 34mph? Thanks Trev.

Just purchased my 1st bike in a long time. Was a rider 6 years ago on a Hyosung GT125R but to no fault of my own had a severe accident which knocked my confidence for many years. I have just re-past my CBT and bought a Yamaha MT-125 whilst I get booked in for my full bike license. At the prime age of 36 I now feel more confident than I did before. so thanks for having me here, and I’ll update with my progress as and when I can.

hey this question is probably always asked but is there any mod on a yamaha yzf r125 (2008 reg) to make it more powerful/quicker apart from a 150/180cc upgrade many thanks alex
