Yeah I should get it serviced but it doesn't tap when its cold, its only once its warmed up . Opps you are right Yamahead, there is 4 carbs ..Doh that makes it even more complicated The problem is i don't know anything about this bike ( as you've already seen:) ) so i'm gonna have to take it to a bike shop for a service coz i'm going on holiday on it next month, but i'm going to get a manual then hopefully do future services on it myself, but atm when you say check the clearances at the shims, im like Who,What, Where,when, why..Help! But thanks for the help anyway

Hiya I've only had my bike for 2 weeks so still getting use to the characteristics, so i wanted to know if i have anything to worry about, When the engine has warmed up there is a tapping/ticking noise which i thought would be the tappets it seems to tap at almost the same speed whether im sitting at lights or riding round town doing 30/40 mph i'm not sure if it still taps when going faster 60 + because i can't hear with all the wind etc, ... a mate at work said it's not a problem and probably better to hear some tapping rather than none at all coz that would mean the tappets are to tight,.. but i thought id better ask on here coz if anyone knows one of you will , I serviced my old 100cc but i'm to scared to touch the divvy atm, 2 Carbs what the F**k is that about ... anyway if someone could give me some insight and put my mind to rest that would be great. thank you

Just kidding

Yeah thats cool, I totally respect your opinion, you don't have to like them, .. it would be a sad world if everyone was the same, unless we're talking about bikes Cheers

Opps sorry about that, I don't know how that happened (the double post thing) ..Anyway Foo Fighters... Nirvana rejects.. No not at all, If FF were trying to be like nirvana by playing the same style of music then yeah I'd agree with you. But it's not like Dave Grohl thought great, nirvana is over now it's my turn to be upfront and get some lime light, .. because he was always a singer/guitarist pre nirvana, he only became a drummer because no one else wanted to do it (in band b4 nirvana) then just carried on with it, if everyone thought that FF only came about because of the success nirvana, then they wouldn't still be doing as good as they are now. Grohl is very talented the first FF album was all done by him, he played guitar/bass/drums and did all the vocals .. Ok some of the early songs are a bit cheesy but at the same time at gigs the crowd goes mad when they play them. A year ago he went back to drumming to recorded the new Queens of the stone age album (songs for the def), Foo Fighters won 2 Grammy Awards: Best Rock Album for There Is Nothing Left To Lose and Best Short Form Music Video for "Learn To Fly". Grohl and Hawkins joined 2 of the 3 surviving members of Queen, guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor, onstage for a Rocking version of the Queen classic "Tie Your Mother Down.". Also Grohl has formed a "band"(well more like a collection of people to work with) called PROBOT, Working alongside people from Soulfly/Venom/Sepultura/Corrosion of conformity/mercyful fate/voivod/Napalm Death and even the one, the only ...Lemmy from Motorhead So do you think that all of these big names and even a few legends of the music world would work with Dave Grohl... who is as you say, simply "a Nirvana Reject" ? Cheers.

LET'S ROCK!! Yep I'm a rock man, My fav band is The Foo Fighters Always has been always will be I pretty much like anything guitar orientated - well alternative music, But none of that Busted / Blink 182 kinda shit, But i do like Papa roach, I think they have some really good songs and are very under rated, at first they seem to come across as a Cheesy "New" punk band, .. But if you really listen to the lyrics it's quite deep, anyway ..... And of course Ozzy. /me let's hair down and starts rocking out! in the middle of the office :twisted:

This weather is doing my head in :cry: , All weekend it's been Pi**ing it down Come monday morning what do we get? ... Blue skys all day long! I'm not a "Only ride when its dry" biker, But it was raining hard and i only got the bike a week ago, so i'm still getting use to it in the dry let alone the wet. I have to ride to work everyday so I get wet alot, but at the weekend when i don't HAVE to go out and it's raining, I think sod it can't be arsed to get wet again, I'll stay in and watch black books anyway that was my monday moan, Just had to get it out of my system Cya

yep same here, im the only rider. tho i guess my brother is now he has my old bike. my dad used to have a vespa when he was 18 but he only had it for a year so i don't think that counts

Thanks for the congrats, Yeah it is a 600, nice bike tho had just under 4000 miles when i got it. hi John the DAS course cost me £530 all together,( including the cost of the test £48) But i did the 4 day course because i thought i would never be able to get use to there 500cc Kawa ER-5 in 3 days, .. i didn't feel at all happy on the bike when i did a 10 minute assesment on it, .. but in hind sight i probably would have been fine with just the 3 day course, coz after the first whole day of riding i felt fine, the rest of the days were to sharpen up U turns, shoulder checks at the right times, .. all of the boring stuff that saves your life . Good luck with your test, stay calm and you'll pass no worrys.

Hiya everyone I have signed up at last, I've been lerking on the forum for a few months. I passed my DAS on the 22nd of june Yay! Then got my Divvy last saturday been having loads of fun since, Its a big difference from my old bike dare i say it (a ho*da) but fear not, im not gay!. it has been a good bike, it's been my work horse for the last 2 years, and enabled me to save up enough cash to do the test and get the new bike so i am greatful for it, ...... Needless to say I have given it away to my bro the day i got the divvy .. Didn't want it anywhere near it Something i did want to ask from the other divvy riders was what kinda mileage do you get out of a full tank before having to switch to reserve. I did about 130 miles then filled it up, how much more would it do before switching to res? (not alot i guess) Talk to you all soon Have fun
