Hello all, Thought I'd introduce myself. I've been browsing the forums now and again. Figured it was about time I chirped up and said hello. So, I'm 28 - ride an XVS 650 custom 98, mainly been getting by with a Haynes Manual and perpetual curiosity. Or a fix when it's broke basis - although I am far from a mechanic. Pretty the polar opposite. See you around, I suppose. CASTLE

[b]Hey Hey Hey! I'm a new member of Y-O-C and i need some help. I previously owned a 2003 Yamaha YZF-R6 but I got rear-ended sitting at a red light in traffic . I since then have bought a 1991 Yamaha FJ1200 and need some hints and tips. It's getting power and turns over but no fire, a friend of mine has a FZR-600 with the same computer so we did as any other like-minded person and tried it with no luck, still no fire. it was running when parked and has sat up for almost 3 years, any tips? any and all are accepted and appreciated. if you'd like to text/call and ask more questions feel free to send me a PM or Message and i will give the number. Thank you all!

Hi All, I have a starter relay issue and was hunting around for a replacement. I looked on eBay and there were plenty of options for around £15, anyway It came yesterday and I noticed that the positive and negative connections were on different sides to the original. I have messed around trying various different combinations but with no success. I have also noticed that anything post 2006 For a oem replacement part cost around £70 But pre 2006 it’s £15. ????? Any help or information would be great as I’m a little confused on this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys, I'm in Japan riding a little FZ250. Good reliable bike most of the time but I've left it sitting for a few months now unused. I've running the engine about once a month but with winter I've been a bit tardy in my maintenance. Now the bike battery is flat, so I was cranking the engine using cables connected to a car battery as the bike battery was flat. The engine started cranking as usual, but it didn't fire. I tried again but suddenly lost all electrics (lights out & now power to starter). I checked the fuse but it appears to be OK. There's a little pin like button near the battery that's inside a clear plastic case that sometimes re…
