icedragon Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hello all. Just joined so I thought I would say hi before I start asking for help. I started my motor biking when I was 16 with a Yamaha FS1-E 50 in 1998. I went on to get a TZR125 and I loved it. Sadly I passed my car test and neglected her and ended up selling her in 2000. In 2002 I ended up acquiring her again after her owner crashed her into a wall. I spent a few months restoring her. Then I ended up getting married and she got stored in a container in my mates work and ended up getting stolen or lost and she hasn’t been seen since. I lost interest and never ended up doing my full test and thought my biking days was over. Which brings us to 2012. About 8 weeks ago I got offered a Yamaha YN100 neo's for very cheap but it wasn’t running, now my intension was to get it fix it, MOT it and sell it. Soon as I go its spark back and got it running I seemed to get my spark back. I got insurance and booked done my CBT again and then I was on the road again. I ended up buying a TZR50 a few weeks ago that needed a bit of work but I was happy with it. I know it’s a bit of a drop in power to the TZR125 but I can ride it on my car licence with no L plates and also carry passengers (my kids) as it’s classed as a Moped. I am going to do my test now and get a R1 but in the meantime I’m happy playing out on my TZR50. Iv just got a 90cc bore kit, technigas exhaust and carbon reed valves to fit in the next week or so and am just looking for a bigger carb. Well thats me for now. Im a bit out of touch with bike engines these days but ill help where i can and ill pick it all back up soon enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icedragon Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Well she has just bought a pony and 2 horses so she had no say in me having a bike. I nearly ended up riding a horse and the scooter saved me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
