Will watch for all those things you mentioned but I am concerned about something I've been reading on the net about gearing probs http://www.allworldauto.com/comments/2000_...916-2000-1.html
With all motorcycles your gonna get folk who have problems and issues, but speaking from experience, i never had any of those mentioned inthat link with mine. I had a 2003 model - sweet as a nut she was.

thanks for the welcome goff - any hints about what to watch out for on buying a second hand 650 classic
All i would say is check the frame and swingarm for rust - although you will find that most used dragstars will have been very well looked after. Other than that its just follow the general rules when buying a used motorcycle - check forks, look for dings and scrapes etc etc etc.
The 650 is a great bike and you'll find very little wrong with them unless they have taken a serious beating.
The person to ask is Ttaskmaster - he has one and i reckon he'd marry the bloody thing if he could!

Nice bike you got there - and welcome!

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally. The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
THE SITUATION:
You are in England; York, to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photo-journalist working for a major newspaper and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing into the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
THE TEST:
Suddenly, you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer... Somehow, the man looks familiar... You suddenly realize who it is... It's Gordon Brown! You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever. You have two options: You can save the life of Gordon Brown or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the country's most powerful men!
THE QUESTION:
Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...

Would you select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Welcome to the forum honey
-
what was wrong with what i said?? just curious
not meaning to argue, but i sorry if it offended anybody..
and the wd-40 is a good idea.. might consider a spray-paint can instead
Whats wrong is that using names like that to describe another person are deemed racist and are not allowed on the forum.

Just a quick reminder that this event is this weekend - be great to see some of you there. If you do come along, just ask for me (everyone calls me Goff!) and ill come see you

have you seen the big guy at the barn selling his tyre gunk stuff,£25-£45 quid a pop. suppose you get a nail in your tyre ,the gunk fills the peirce and saves you pushing your hack ,good.BUT what if a screw goes in i would imagine it will pull out the rubber in the thread of the screw ,now will his spunky stuff fill that gap i dont think it would ,and out of nine punctures ive had ,seven were screws , one was a blow out ,and one, yes it was a nail.so is it worth it
The same guy from Rivington Barn is coming to my rally this weekend with his stall!

what visor
in General
Posted
I have a dark visor for my shoei but i've never used it. I had a caberg twin visor before that which had a flip down dark visor - great in the day but pants at night!
The shoei has the pinlock system which doesnt steam up and is not prone to scratching either!
