    My first bike was a JT1 back in the 70's and I have loved Yammers ever since. Got out of bikes in the 80's but it must be mid-life crisis time or something as I just picked up a DT250 and a DT360 for the wife and I (both '74's). Now the fun begins - finding parts and getting them running.

    Hi all Paul here, 29 and from essex. Previously owned a 2000 R6 till I sold it 2 years ago. Brought myself a 1998 R1 yesterday and my jaw is hurting with this stupid grin stuck on my face. Looking to customise the bike in one way or another. Will post some pics up soon as she is. Look forward to speaking with you all.

    Hi folks I'm Alan, 40 and just got my first bike, a XJ600 N Diversion (1997) It's NOT a mid-life crisis! I just haven't been able to afford/justify a bike until now..or maybe I just decided that if I was going to get one, then leaving it any longer would be daft. Anyway..Hi

    Hi to all you owners of Yamahas old and new. I am a new owner of a 2003 Silverado 1100cc. I am a retired american living in Mexico City area, looking for folks who like to ride. My wife and I are weekenders now. I just finished a long trip from Fresno, Ca., where I bought my bike, to Mexico City, 8 day on the road. Two to relax in Green Valley, Arizona and one day on the beach in Acapulco, Gro. Mexico. 3000 miles and a lot of it was during the cold streak in rizona and northern Mexico. I swear that I ws riding in sub 0 weather but I survived and detoured to Acapulco to meet my wife for a relaxing day on the beach before heading home. If anyone out there wants …

    Afternoon all. Figured it was about time I signed up for the owners club! I took advantage of Yamaha's '60' deal last September and replaced my self-restored GSX-F600 with a red XJ6 Diversion. I call her Maggie and she's the other woman in my life, much to my wife's delight! Done 1200 miles on her so far - trying to ride through the winter and not be a massive softy! I'm pretty new to riding having only passed my test in May 2010. So yeah, hi!

    I supose I'm a NEWBEEEE here. Been lurking in and out for a while. Not new to bikes or Yamahas. I've had a few in my time, mostly air cooled RD250's 400's and I remember an old torque induction 200 that I had and loved more than any other. Probably the first real big two stroke I could pretend to Barry Sheene on. Alas that's all in the past and now just fond memories. At the moment I have an old XJR1200 with 87,000 miles, a Fazer 1000 Gen1 (FZS1000), KTM 640 LC4 enduro converted to supermoto and a Hyosu... Don't laugh, a Hyosung XRX 125 SM that's hardly supermoto but looks the part, is my daily hack and one of the most reliable bikes I've had... Not including the Y…
