Yeah i love the look of them, arnt they the ones with the MASSIVE disks :roll:

Yeah something seems a miss :roll:

Yeah it was an easy mod to do

Yeah this i would love to know considering i used to do it for about 4 years :roll:

On my bike i had it so i could manually adjust the powervalve with a bike cable and a gear change lever 8)

Well they look the part 8)

Wanted to see some sideways track action 8)

I would shit myself riding that :twisted:

Oh yeah :shock:

Dont you mean WEAR :wink:

I can only just get my bike to 140, the suspension is too hard for road use though, my version goes all blurry :shock: Thinking of insurance my old dt125r cost the same as my YZF with my full bike licence :shock:

Yeah cant wait to see the photos mate, sounds like you had a good day 8)

That is one MAD ride 8)

Thinking of it that way, would rather shag them :shock:

I was trying to decide which were my favorite 5 tracks, so i could put a pole up, but to be honest, i cant really narrow it down apart from the obvious 8) Which are your best? :roll: Phakisa Freeway Le Mans Circuit De Catalunya Nelson Piquet Donington Park Estoril Losail International Racetrack Phillip Island Jerez Mugello Assen Sachsenring Automotodrom Brno Motegi Sepang Circuit Communitat Valenciana

Yeah would love to tour on a bike 8)

Well the tolerance on the frames from manufacturers is about 8-9mm, as they are made in jigs and distort slightly from heat buildup when being tig welded. When they are straightening frames, there is no heat which expands the frame, therefore they can accuratly set the frame in position within a 2-3mm, without the frame moving slightly when cooling. Brand New bikes which are raced are stripped down and have there frames straightened, due to poor manufacture tolerances. :shock:

Yep in the DTRs the hollow end of the piston faces out, for some strange reason :roll:

Most frames can all be straightened, unless the headstock has become ovaled ie squashed. A reasonablely acurate method would be to measure the wheelbase and check that the wheels are inline with a long straight edge. Costs about £150 to straighten a frame, nothing major, and they come out more straight than they are new :shock: You need to strip the bike down to just a rolling chasis so is a pain in the arse

Just a thought, it could be a serious fault! If its been in an accident the actual headstock may have become ovaled :shock:

Looking good pete, just need to shine that exhaust up 8)

If the headstock is loose you will find it vibrates under front breaking, not too sure what happens if its too tight though :roll:

Yeah wish my bird would help out with my bike 8)

Check out the pics of the YZFs in the gallery and you should be able to get a comparison for the seat height Just a thought, dont buy it buy mine!
