    Hello all New boy with new tale of woe - hope it's not bad form to start this way.. I have in my brothers shed an Fz750 (88 vintage) that has MOT and runs well and an XJ550 with a Radian engine (XJ598) that doesn't (well not often). There's a GS500 waiting to be turned into DualSport too but that's another story. I'll continue the 'woe' in the workshop section.. Cheers

    Hi All, hI have been looking for a site where I can ask questions from any who have previous experience as there seems to be little info on the RS200, an example of which I have just bought to restore or turn into a little cafe racer style bike for my son. First question : Where can you get engine parts for this type of bike?

    Hi folks. I recently purchased a 2007 V Star 1300. I presently ride a GL1800 Goldwing. The V Star will be my wife's ride, however, anyone who's wife rides knows who does the maintenance on the bike. This is the first Yamaha either of us has owned and so far I am impressed. I hope to be able to both give and receive valuable information from this forum. Safe riding all.

    Hi All, It seems to be a common theme in the New Members section, but I'm also an older (but not too old) new rider. I've always wanted to ride a motorbike, so have finally taken the plunge. Did my CBT last month and have purchased a YBR125 Custom – have only had a chance to do 8 miles due to weather, but it's a start.

    Hi everyone Just bought myself a Yamaha xj600 Pre diversion for £400, been sitting for 2 years but everything seems to work well. Going to give it a service and see if I can get an MOT on it. It needs a new seat, and its also got a dent in the fuel tank, anyone have any ideas of how to get a dent like this out? I saw on you tube someone got a pump up blood pressure monitor and put it in the tank, pumped it up and popped it out! Here's some pictures, https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlZmVDYlpBUkZyU0E/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlcDkxaXg4Wnl6V2c/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B48n4iTraftlQ2ltSjlxbFBPdFk/…
