Posted June 21, 200915 yr Just like to say Hi from Sunny Southport (UK). I have just bought into the Yamaha Club with a 1999 Thunderace . I was a Triumph worshipper until my '96 Sprint's little ends went and basically the bike isn't worth repairing as the cost of parts is too high . Have been looking around at Thunderaces for a while now and finally found one. Needs a bit of work doing but easy bits not like the sprint! Whole different ride to the Sprint but I'll get used to it (needs a better seat!) Jobs to do: Fastener kit for panels and screen as some are missing/wrong ones Down pipes need replacing Brakes need overhaul Suspension needs to be softened! Some wiring needs a tidy Replace a mirror as it's cracked the glass. Fluids all round as I don't know when they were done. Should be a smart bike after that.
June 21, 200915 yr Should be a smart bike after that. Looks pretty smart as it is Welcome to the forum. :D
June 21, 200915 yr Nice bike sprinter, and welcome, I'm amazed how your exhaust cans are the same colour as your bodywork. Oh and by the way Old Git, I like your new Avitar
June 21, 200915 yr Author Thanks guys/gals Nice bike sprinter, and welcome, I'm amazed how your exhaust cans are the same colour as your bodywork. Oh and by the way Old Git, I like your new Avitar Yea, I was lucky there as it came with it, not sure if its a bit too loud thou as there's no stamp on it for the MOT. It's got Carbon Can Co. written on it. Mind you the headers are louder atm lol
