the ticking I have had both on the R6 and on my 2005 R1 (current bike). Both bikes serviced when necessary and nothing picked up plus had/have high mileage on them. Recall another R1 owner saying the same thing got it all checked out and nothing again. If in doubt get a second opinion.

Firstly hi all
haven't been on line for a long long time now. Too cut a long story short hubby had a big bike accident last year and thankfully was very lucky however same can't be said for his fazer 1000! Now in seven boxes in my garage. Great. He has fully recovered (ish) back to the hospital later this year to have the metal work looked at the usual thing you know.
Anyhow he (meaning hubby) has gone to the dark side, yip he's gone a bought a Honda and a VFR at that. Oh dear gawd.
But fret not I've still got my beloved R1 and looking for a bit of support re the following

Bye for now.

Hello
hope someone can help. Have recently bought new R1 and with every bike I have always had a scot-oiler fitted. However as I have found out with this bike there is not a lot of room for extras like this and comms unit. Has anyone else had this slight problem and found a solution as to were to position the scot-olier. Please less of the smart suggestions
Thanks

As we all know insurance time is just round the corner. (hopefully we will get no snow).
Whether you are a fair weather rider or a hardcore winter winder i can try and help.
I work for Yamaha Insurance Services, and whilst i open myself up for abuse I will try and help everyone out for a better insurance deal by calling me on
08700 747374. (ask For Ryan)
We cover new and used Yams and i give my word if you quote my name and this website you will not be treated as a number.
Hi Ryan will be phoning you on Monday. Got offered a great deal on new R1 trading in my R6 already with YIS so need to talk things over and see what's what.

Please do.
Do you bike it to Laguna?
Maybe I can bottle up some killer sunny weather from my 1200 mile trip down to Laguna, & ship it off to ya before you go?! -
Can i pre-book some lovely sunny weather for my ride down from Scotland to Donners and for the duration of my stay.
Crum......I would sure think that Donington would stand a better chance with the weather in JulyFrom what I've read, both Donington & Laguna are doing some upgrades for the upcoming season

Hi Yamahead
yip had to double check as well to make sure that it was correct. Maybe with a bit of luck Donnington will have better weather in 2005 than what we had to endure this year.

It's pissed me off as well.
Only found out by accident, checked it out on the offical motgp website and its on the mcn website too.
Don't know why they have changed it......had a feeling they would.

Santa is such a great guy got all the DVD's that I wanted......road racing review 04 which has totally made me home sick, bsb, wsb and motogp review and nw200 review.
My hubby says that it's a great investment as it gives him hours of peace and quiet.
No keys to a brand new R1....however will let him off with that.

Aye whatever you say boss
sorry if the post is inappropriate for you CD, but it has being posted in a "general/bar" area where "any" topic goes and is not just motorcycling based. Please dont let it dishearten you from posting in any of our motorcycle related sections as everyone's input is appreciated.thanks .

Hi all
I was surprised and almost disappointed to see the topic of this poll. Please do not get me wrong, I fully support open and free speech and for people to have the right to express their thoughts on important matters. However as a person who has experienced this ongoing issue very very closely and has it hanging over on a daily basis I make no apologies in writing this response. Feel free to debate this topic, however I just want to enjoy motorcycling and my bike and not have to be constantly reminded of the things I dont want to be reminded of.....got the news for that.
Don't take any offence guys and girls...just like you airing my opinion.

Anyone on line at the mo? Sat here watching the comedy awards :? sipping a celebratory glass of fizzy wine as I have passed my end of year degree exams before I get any slagging off at being a student I am a mature student.....buggered it up the first time in a haze of drunken nites :wink:

Bike is tucked up for winter won't be out til March at least. Roads are way too greasy and over gritted up here. Have never seen the roads in such a bad state what with famers crap from fields, diesel spills and stuff. Not worth it heard of a guy who came off from his brand new Fazer 1000 due to farmers muck on the road. Can just about cope with a few months of non biking action and have a full season of biking fun 2005.

Hi there
just new to the forum and was reading a few things and can relate to the problems of tyre choice. I own a 53 plate R6 and hated the Dunlops they were too peaky that is giving too rapid turn in characteristic......in other words I knew the true colour of shite. In the end went for Pirelli Diablo's just fantastic, great in the wet, confidence building right over conerning......did make the move of changing the front from a 60 to a 70 but would rather have the 60 to which I will be going back to......really need to drop the yokes by couple of mill with the 70 front....speak to your dealer/suspension expert. But hey what do I know I'm only a girly biker who does 12000+ mile a year up here in the depths of antarctic Scotland on my R6......a girls bike!
