Newbe to forums that is.

Hi all. Just joined the forum in the hope of finding an MT 03 660 community.

I recently bought a 2006 MT 03 after being off the bike for 10 years or so. Not my first Yamaha, I started out on a TZR 125 and had a 250 LC for many years. Then went out into the wilderness with a couple of Ducati Monsters. However, wanted a gentle re introduction to bikes without the Italian service regime. Didn't even know these bikes existed until I realised I couldn't afford an XSR700 right away and started looking further afield. The idea of the YAM 660 single in a little road bike was too tempting to pass up and I found a nice low miles one for sensible money. Although its pretty clean, it appears the bike has been used as a commuter on a shoestring budget all its life so I am giving it some of the love its been missing out on.

Little photo of the bike with my young apprentice (and also one of the reasons I haven't had a bike for 10 years) looking chuffed that we finally got the (original) drive sprocket off to replace with much needed shiny new parts.

Got 2 bike excuses myself so I know what you mean, managed to keep hold of mine although (bikes and kids) I have had my turns as 'full time year round rider' and the 'done 80 miles a year' too, as finances changed.

Looks like a 'fun in the twisties type. Welcome to the farm.
