    Yamaha TZR tail tidy

    in The Bar

    Posted

    Ok so where are you going to dangle the legal UK stuff from in picture 2 (assuming a UK bike)? Why not do your own thing and produce a tail that allows the legal stuff & looks cool !

    Regards Jim

    Well, hopefully a tail tidy!

    Hi,

    I've just bought myself a 2008 Yamaha TZR 50 and I was thinking about fitting a tail tidy because the stock back end is huge!

    However, I've just been out and looked how it would fit but it seems as though the number plate bracket and the undertray is all stuck together in one bit. Now I've taken off the seat to see if there are any bolts keeping it in place but I can't seem to see any.

    i've managed to get a few pictures off YouTube to see how people fitted theirs and they seem to have taken the undertray out and the number plate bracket but if I did that all the electrics and wiring would be exposed because that's what the battery is sitting on, effectivley.

    There are a few pictures below to see what my bike is now what I'd like the rear end to be similar too.

    Hi,

    Could anyone tell me if I can get a tail tidy for a Yamaha TZR 50? I can't see any, would one off a R1 or an R6 fit?

    If it has indicators built in, do I need to change some wiring? How easy is it? Just asking because I haven't really got much experience.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    creatine

    I've really started hitting the weights down the gym and I'm gonna start using creatine again.

    But I can't remember- how much I should take to load up with at first

    - how much to take once the loading up period is finished

    - how long to use it for.

    Anyone got more of a clue on this than me?

    I know a bit but not much about creatine.

    I'll get back to you soon.

    What can i do to my tzr50 (2004) to compliment a bore kit? I know its only a 50, but i jst want more out of it!!! So what can i do... and i mean i want to do evrything to make it fly as fast as possible!!!! Cheers, James

    James,

    There are various things but to be honest it isn't really worth it. I'm getting mine soon and I'm just doing the standard de-restriction (washer out of the exhaust)

    -Sports exhaust- You may get a couple more MPH at the top end but a decent one like the Arrow is around £170

    -Sports air filter- Not going to make any noticeable difference except it may make the bike sound 'tinny'

    -Racing reeds- Don't really know much about these

    -Uprated clutch- Again, don't really know much about these.

    -Sprockets- By changing the size of the sprockets you can either improve the acceleration or top end. Google it.

    Thats about it really except for the CDI- something you might of heard about cutting a wire to de-restrict it 'even more' if you like but this is only for the 125 I think. Don't quote me on that though.

    Remember as soon as you modify it you have no warranty or insurance.

    Hope this helps.

    Edit: I just searched TZR50 in the search menu- didn't know this thread was so old. The user has only had one post so I guess he's not using this forum anymore. Might be useful to someone else though.

    Which type of gloves?

    in The Bar

    Posted

    Hi,

    There are a few different types of gloves available but as the seasons' just changing which ones would be best?

    I'm feeling the short style summer ones would be ok for the moment but I'm not sure how much use I would get out of them. Do I really need winters' already?

    Cheers.

    hi guys im just wondering of your opinion, i have an xt125x 2008 model and im thinking of trading it for a yamaha yzf r 125? am i stupid in making this decision!

    tks a mill

    Jamie

    Are you stupid? In what respect. There are loads of people here willing to help but we need a more detailed question. What are using the bike for, how old is it, why are you thinking of trading it in, how old are you?

    The list goes on.

    Comment back and I'm sure you'll get plenty of answers.

    Sweeeeeeet! I wonder if he can deliver to their other shop in stoke for a small fee lol. Il ring them on friday then!

    Thanks m8

    Yeah, they do deliver mate. I live around 20 minutes away and they offered delivery for £23 including VAT! Beware, they charge a 2% fee if you pay via Master Card or some card like that because they make so little profit anyway. They'll need you to go in store to sign registration forms etc.

    They will put it on either an 08 or 58 plate!

    Nope im from wolverhampton, which is close to gear4bikers in stoke, but when i went onto the website it says the actual dealer is in nottingham! Its only an hour away from where i live. But your sure hes ordering more blues in? because on his autotrader he says theres limited stock, or is that just an advertising technique :mellow:

    Yeah, limited stock from his first order/batch.

    Have you called him yet? They are open on Sundays.

    No worries. Just ring them up man! They ordered quite a few reds and they are all sold out. There is a blue one left I think but either way he's ordering more in.

    Im in the same boat as you mate. Im looking for new tzr 50's and i have 2400 quid to play with. I too have found somewhere local where i can get a tzr (for 2000). But my mom is talking cr*p about someone else should suffer the depreciation and not me. I need some pursuasive comments guys why i should get a new 1! Just out of interest where did you find that do new ones??? . Oh and i try confused.com for all my family when they do their insurance. Try it :P

    Alex

    Hi mate, I just replied to your thread- check it out. Your Mum is right, you'll probably get £1,500 if you kept it mint. I'm getting a new one for various reasons but thats for me to know.. As I said on your thread, nobody knows your financial situation so if you can afford the bike, and proper gear and the depreciation; go for it. You may get a second hand bike and have to do a engine rebuild or what ever, but you may just be constantly paying money to get it road worthy. My friend got one second hand, the guy he bought it from blatently thrashed the shit out of it- he's lucky because he hasn't had any problems, yet.

    Anyway, I wasn't going to disclose where I got mine from because I thought they'd all run out :D Nah only joking but I've put a deposit on one so it's mine.. I got it from the 'Bikeshop' in Long Eaton, Nottingham. Gear4bikers.co.uk

    £350 tpf&t is the cheapest I've found so far.
