Hi All, Can anyone help with the registration of a new imported bike which came from Germany? This has been an ongoing issue since Feb 19. The bike was an imported Yamaha TZR which came with full German documentation. DVLA then requested that Yamaha confirm the authentication of the bike which has also been supplied. It seems that the full documentation, and Yamaha Motor Europe letter is not enough to register a bike in UK with DVLA. Has anyone else had similar issues, and does any member know a solution. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey all . This is the end of my first year on both bikes and computers. I have fallen madly in love with bikes but the pc lover in me still has a way to go to be competent. I was spurred on to get my license by my amazing bike riding wife and we have never looked back. :0) I do have a question that i hope this site and you lovely people can help me with. I am in the process of turning my Dragstar 650 into a bobber and and wonder if anyone knows if there is a front controls wiring extension kit out there to allow me to stick a very sexy set of ape hangers on. Any help you can offer would be amazing . easy life all :0)

I strongly advise all Tmax 530 owners from 2016 with electronic locks to consider that their locking system and electronic ignition is seriously flawed, that it has no security whatsoever. At 1.30 this morning my Tmax 530 was stolen in under 3 Minutes, with a disc lock as well. The steering lock is a joke. See pictures. Cannot upload them. I had a 20 14 T max 530 max stolen and recovered as well. It was lifted up and carted away and dumped up the Road, but the steering lock held up and it could not be ridden away. The unbelievable bit about the above is that with all the security module left with the wiring hanging out, it was still just ridden away.…

Hi o/ I'm looking into getting a 125cc bike to try and cut down on how much fuel i'm burning through each week in the daily 65 mile commute to work and back. I've always always wanted a motorbike to call my own and now not only can I get one, but it'll be paying for itself! I've been around a few bike shops and talked to new and veteran bikers in and around Kent, UK, to get a feel of what I should be looking to get both in terms of a decent bike but also the clothing and other extras. I found this website and it looks like it's a great place to hash out ideas on what to do with my bike when I get it. From the stats and the looks I'm 90% set on getting a Yamaha 1…

Afternoon Everyone! Hi my name is Jim, 25 yrs old from Gloucestershire! Been looking over a few Yamaha forums and this one looks to be pretty cool Ive recently moved on wards and up wards to the bikers world and bagged myself a stunning R6 2002! (piccys will follow) I previously had a Limited edition Impreza WR1 and also was a mod on JPOC, really great guys, plenty of meets, social gatherings e.c.t. The WR1 was a fantastic car but just lost the thrill and got a bit bored... Anyways!!! Just thought id drop in and say heeellloooooo... i know how annoying it can seeing people joining a site with no introduction .

I am the owner of an 05 YBR125, the first model year. Is there anyone out there with a 2005 or 2006 carb YBR. The CDI is dead & an approaching bill is as welcome as a boot in the nut-sack. The OEM CDI unit has eight pins and the only replacement units I have encountered have six pins. What is the layout of the 8 and 6 pin units?

Just wanted to say a quick hi. I've recently started riding a bike, mainly green laning / enduro type riding and bought myself a DT125RE back in May 2012. Hopefully I'll have a full licence soon and am looking at getting myself a WR250! I'll be sticking around on these forums for a while as I post up more and more of my bike problems (haha), and hopefully be able to help others too with similar problems. Catch you all later!

Hello ! I am new to this forum and have been a Yamaha nut for years! I am presently rebuilding a 1982 (?) DT 50. It is an enduro model, street legal with all lights etc. I bought it two weeks ago hoping I would be able to find a piston, reeds and gasket kit - one know where I would be able to find parts etc for this bike. I am in Canada and it seems that the DT was more popular in Europe - please help if you know where I can get parts. Thank you, Dan [email protected]
