scubadude Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Just to say Hi to everyone. I'm Paul - 50 years young. Been riding for over 30 years... (well, I get off to have my tea!!) Mainly Yamaha's - Started with a FS1-E in Purple - then a DT175 twin shock White - RD200 Orange - RD400 DX Maroon I raced that one - TA125 Race bike, raced that too - DT175 MX Blue - SR500 Black - XS1100 Silver - SRX600 Silver... and some other Jap stuff. But my heart is with Yamaha and right now I have an MT-03! oop's... in Red! (Colour is important to me... well it is!) I live in sunny Stockport nr Manchester UK. Two grown kids and no ties. (never did like them anyway... the ties that is... love my kids!) My daughter has a YBR125 and is quite a natural rider, but my son just aint interested at all. I could go on, but Im aiming to find friends not loose them already!!! ; ) Ok guys, look forward to chatting and sharing what I think I know - looking forward to learning new stuff too!

Turbine Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi Blackhat250!!! Good to hear from you! Yes.. the Garelli Tiger - so quick and I guess it helped my two stroke oil addiction - the smell, not drink!! Loved the DT175 though - at 17 it was my first "real bike" and just loved it in white! I do miss two strokes though : ( Hey.. take care and speak soon! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbine Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi Dude! Love the MT in black but got an ex-demo in red - still cool and a within my budget! Very happy with it so far. Had to have the Throttle position sensor replaced, but now it runs smooth! Im just going to have a look at the MT site, so thanks for the link. Hope all ok with yours and enjoying it ; ) Take care and speak soon. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbine Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi Mervin! Woe... you have stayed loyal - wish I had, really miss the RD400DX. Still, the MT-03 has a 2stroke feel to it - I mean like the RD, tractable and the then grin factor when you want it : ) You've got lots in the shed to keep you busy by the sound of it - look forward to seeing them if you post any photos!! Take care Merv! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
