sprinter Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 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.

mike1949 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprinter Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
