Yes the pad came from eBay as well, there is virtually hundreds for sale in different colours. The bars are 7/8 motocross they should fit any bike, but you better double check.

I bought some for my XT afew weeks ago. They were £25 and they are sound. I also bought a renthal bar pad for a tenner and you can't tell the bars are only cheap ones. I bought these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BIKE-IT-MX-MEDIUM-HANDLEBAR-BLUE-ENDURO-TRAIL-BARS-/310141340315?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item4835dd4a9b There is a picture of my handlebars if you go to the bar section and look at the 'fitting new handlebars' post.

Your best bet is to look on eBay. I recently bought a new chain and sprockets set for £30. I have an XT which is based on the YBR.

I can't be arsed going through all that just to replace them. What a rigmerole. I have noticed quite a few have seized or threaded. I don't want to start messing about with it and make it worse.

On my way home from work this morning after a night shift and saw this.........................

The weather is terrible and its set to continue for days. eBay is excellent for bike parts, its the cheapest place for bike parts.

That's cool on a few levels, cool that friend gave you them and cool that it's a great discovery.

Gutted, what sort are you going to get to replace it?

Sacha just click on the link and read the groups description. The wheel getting jammed was the tip of the iceberg.

DirtyDT, you don't have to be my friend to join my group. I know what you mean about people banging on about FB all the time. I was really reluctant to join, but I'm glad I did it put me back in touch with old school friends. Also it's a great way of keeping tabs on people lol. Some people are sad attention seeking divs who are constantly posting their every move or what they are thinking. I just use it for chat and messaging mainly. I opened an account and then 6 months later I checked it and I had about 150 friend requests from people from my past etc. And tbh I hardly go on it now, I just went on it to start this group.

Post deleted due to causing offence.

Wouldn't aluminium be a really weak metal to make lever's anyway?

Wow that's a nice little collection. I would be very proud having a collection like that.

How about making weapons? You could make swords, daggers etc. There's a shop near me that sells replica swords and that from fantasy films like Lord of The Rings and other gay shit like that.

I'm not exactly sure but I know the engine is less powerful than the legal requirement. It is pretty slow but quick enough off the mark.

I have an XT 125 which is basically a YBR but with a different exterior. Mechanically my bike is sound and very reliable. From what I know of YBR's they are an excellent all round little bike.

Bradford is full of them, they sound proper crap as well. I don't like them either.

This past few years I have noticed an increasing number of quads on the road in my city. It feels like there's a quad epidemic. It's getting ridiculous, they are noisy as fook and they ride around in gangs. Ive just seen four of them paying no attention to the traffic and using the wrong lanes.

The bolts in question are allen key bolts. They just aren't coming, it's starting to piss me off. It's the bolts at either side of the petrol tank cap.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200379831192?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Get one of these for a start. I bought one a few weeks ago and it's the dogs.

My shiny new handlebars

I was thinking a DTX. I am really happy with my Yammy. I originally set out to buy an RS but saw this at the last minute and changed my mind. I paid £1300 for her. Other ones of the same year were going for £1500+, I didn't even haggle him, he even delivered it for me about 30 miles away. My mate had an Aprilia RX 125 a few years ago, it was fast as fook. I can't find any though. In another ten years I'm going to have a collection of bikes. I'm going to need one big fuck off garage lol.

Want this one

This was my old 1981 Vespa Douglas 100. I got this when I was 16, I loved this scooter but ended up selling it to a mate who stripped it down to respray it, but never ended up doing it therefore left it in his garage to rot. A few years later he sold it and the buyer completely did it up. I saw it the other day and it's blue now.
