More like I have had to become a better mechanic because of all the "older" bikes I have. Still learning everyday and I have lots more to master. What I've found with Internet sites like this is that I can learn from others who have had problems similar to my own. Plus on occasion I can help others with issues that I have already gone through. Well I'm off to some Motard races for the next two days to do some announcing (will be riding a few bikes too) so I'll be out of the garage this weekend. Come Monday though I start preparing my wife's new toy (MX100) so expect a cry for help soon. Love those old school bikes but hate the problems caused by past owners neglect and crappy mechanical skills. Want to take any bets on how many SAE bolts I find hidden amongst the many rusty fittings?

Greetings all. This seems like a nice site and as you all are Yamaha owners I think I may stay awhile.... What's cool is that you all hail from all around the world. Good to have such a broad base to draw knowledge from. Questions, questions..... where do I start.

So I'll be picking up an MX100 in a few hours for the wife. It's a runner but looks like it wouldn't be out of place in a Mad Max movie. Cheap as chips so I bought it. I figure I would rather spend a few hundred on a beater first then if she likes dirt biking I'll get her something better down the road. Any of you lot have any experience with this model? Any tips or comments will be greatly appreciated..... I'll see if I can post some pics later so you all can laugh at it (and me). Updates will follow as I throw more money at this money pit.

Just thought I should say hello and let you all know I will be popping in every now and then....
