    hiii everyone...this is regarding my yamaha r1 08 starting problem. My dealer Warranty is officially over, but i was wondering if there is any recalls of the bike having trouble starting.i wash my bike last week and for the past 3 days when i start my bike it turns on for about 1/2 a second then turns off. I tried holding the throttle to about 7000 rpm's then I let it go and bike stalls. The only way the bike will stay on if I hold the throttle for a good 10- 15 seconds. The bike is very random sometimes it will turn on and stay on when its cold or hot, but sometimes even if its hot is just stalls right away. Just wondering if i can get any info before I take it to the d…

    Hi, new here. Got a YZF1000R Thunderace and an XJ6n at the moment, plus a chinese "off road" style machine. Almost bought an old XT250 to add to the stable last year but it fell through so i thought i'd give a Chinese bike a go (sucked in by the good price), well, i'll be replacing that with an XT or similar mid next year now and staying away from future chinese bike purchaces Also thinking about getting rid of the 'Ace too. It's getting on a bit now, looking a bit tatty and needs some TLC that i don't really have the time or money for at the moment. But it could always end up as a track bike if i ever have the spare time/cash to throw at it. Anyway, hello all.

    Hello, Can any body help ? I am trying to establish the overall dimensions of the YDS-5e which was used as a basis for the Batgirl Bike. I would also be grateful for any help finding some drawings too. I am working on a project to produce all the vehicles used by Batman and his colleagues and enemies for a part work publication. Many thanks, Henry Brown

    What a great club, very friendly and lots of useful info. Just to say that I finally got my 1991 xj600 (pre div) back on the road after 10 years stored in the garage. I'm sure I'll be asking lots of questions as things go wrong with the little lady but for now its just nice to be part of a large crowd of like minded people Regards Rowlyd

    Hey o/ Passed my full test* restricted test a few months back and been driving around on a Yamaha XT 125 X (2008). Was almost going to buy a MT-03 but I decided to wait a while before I move up. Also the XT is just awesome and I have trouble letting it go, tbh, I would have just kept the XT if I had gone for the MT-03 but I was told against keeping two bikes so the XT stayed I'm currently doing some modifications on it so I'll upload the pics when I'm done Some pics of the bike before any mods apart from the arrow exhaust. These were taken before I passed my test so those hideous L-plates are not remotely in the vicinity of my bike. Glad to be here and probabl…

    Hey everyone, my names Alex. I've just bought a new YBR 125 and I've never rode before, so this is a whole new game for me. Did my CBT this Saturday and picked the bike up the same day. Looking forward to learning more and working up to a bigger bike. I've had experience with working on cars a fair amount as my other toy is a VW Golf 1.8T currently pushing 200bhp yet I find the ~10bhp bike more fun!
