    Hi fellow Yam oners. This is my first time here. I have an '89 FJ1200 3CV. Last year I toik it off the road for a liitle care and attention. I made a note of some wiring "alterations" by the previous owner/owners and subsequently lost it. I am really useless with electrics and would like to ask if there is anyone in the Plymouth area who could give me some of their time and knowledge to get her running. I would be eternally grateful. Thanks.

    Just popped into say Hi as I have just purchased a XJ6 diversion 2011. It is to replace the beast GSX 1400 as I have had major shoulder problems making it very difficult to move the GSX and painful to ride. The test ride on the XJ6 diversion took all the pressure away from me because of riding position and fairing so no pain. The wife wanted me to give up bikes so I was real pleased that I am still on 2 wheels

    Hi all my names Stuart. Need help with a project I have started all info would be appreciated as my head hurts from trying to find it. Anyway what I have brought is a dt 125 we believe it's a 1977 model. Now what I am wanting to do is use it for classic motocross being a twin shock. I also want it to look like the mx125. I have brought various parts like the tank and the rear shocks already and I am currently stripping it down ready to restore. I've been trying to find out the main differences between the two and if anyone can help with any information it would be great. Anyway I am sure I will have lots life questions as I go along Many thanks

    Aloha, my names Joe, I'm from north Wales, I live on a big hill and I ride a Yamaha YBR Custom 125 (yes a 125, please don't throw rocks), I've been riding for 8 months, still on L plates (like riding around with a big sign that says "I'm a virgin and you should crash into me"), I use a helmet camera because in North wales people don't know how to drive, and when I do get my full licence I have no doubt I'm going to end up with as many bikes as my pay cheque allows because I just can't decide what I want when I get a big bike. That's about all you need to know condensed into as short a post as possibe. Just found this forum when wandering round the internet looking…

  16. Started by sutty86,

    Good morning I'm totally new to this fantastic hobbie/way of life. Only passed my CBT a fortnight ago and ended up seeing a bargain on a custom ybr 2009 which was to silly to ignore. Runs perfect but needs sprucing up cosmetically. Little about me I'm 28 Ex soldier now work primarily driving ambulances so have plenty of experience on the road. Currently live in Skipton,UK but moving closer to Keighley for a bigger home hence buying the bike as a commuter mainly. I have three kids and an amazing wife don't know how she puts up with me. Hoping to stick around ,meet some peeps and pick some brains.
