  2. Hi everyone this is my first post as I've only just joined!!! I'm wondering if there is anyone out there with a fuel tank for our yami rxs100 - just had an encounter with a black cab and now the tanks dented, which is really annoying..the pride and joy and hard work to get it where we want it and now this!!! If anyone has or knows anyone who has a red one of these to sell, please let me know! Might need a few other bits for it yet! Hope to be spending more time on here now - be good to read others stories and ideas etc! Thanks!

    I have just joined the Yamaha Club today because I have finally managed to get my hands on a Yamaha Royal Star Palomino. I have been looking for one of these bikes for years and finally persuaded an American gent to part with his machine. This limited edition version was built in 1997 and I believe only 85 were made. I would be interested to know if there are any other Palominos in UK. I should have the bike within 4 to 8 weeks and cannot wait to take delivery and become a proper member of the Club

    Hi there. I'm new to the forum and looking for some advice. I have a 87 DT125 LC MK3, for the most part the bike is great and well used on and offroad. As time has gone on the rear suspention has got softer and lower. It often bottoms out coming over lumps off road. I cant find a replacement that looks good enough to spend money on. Does anybody know if I could replace it with an easier to find one off a DTR? Thanks

    Gent's I joined the club because for the last 2 years I have been trying to get hold of a 1974 RD200 with gold paintwork and white and black striping starting at a point on the top and curving round to a broad black and white stripe on the side. Does anyone know of one for sale in the country in any condition. I am more than happy to pay any reasonable price for one and will collect. It's the last bike I need, to have replaced every bike I have ever owned. Regards Dean.

    Hi Everyone I have just joined this club in the hope that someone here can help me out! I don't have a bike of my own at the moment but my son has two - a new Derbi which he regrets buying (no fun) and an 02 DT125R which he has just bought for fun - and has provided very little so far!!!!! He has had the bike for about a week now and for the first 3 days he was over the moon, but then noticed that as it "hit the power-band" it started to struggle and sounded like it was miss-firing. It also became difficult to start. This increasingly worsened until last night it died on him at traffic-lights and ended up coming home in the back of a van. I am not th…

  18. Hey there guys, Ive been riding since August last year and been having a blast and at some point looking for going on rides with people either before i upgrade or after! But before i rush ahead of myself, Does anyone know if theres a workshop manual for a Yamaha YBR 125 2010? Ive been looking at some Haynes ones on the Net but that only covers the 2004-2009 series. I had an accident the other day and went through someones fence which ended up with me trying to figure out how to repalce my rear brake pedal, indicitor switch and front light (not the bezzle or bulb) What i want to know is if the Haynes manual for older models is compatible for my bike? P…
