  1. Will do. Hopefully i'll be doing on Thursday, weather permitting. Thank you for the help, much appreciated.
  2. Thanks blackchat250. All I need now is a good day of dry weather so I can fit new chain and sprockets, here's hoping.
  3. it's done just over 12500 miles. I did give the chain a good lube and the knocking disappeared for a while.
  4. Hello Guys I can feel a knocking through my left side foot pedal when my bike is moving. I've got a feeling it might be my drive chain as it has a seized link, I've got new chain and sprocket....just waiting for some decent weather to fit. If it is not the drive chain, does anyone have an idea what else it might be? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello All My clutch is nearing it's end on my xj6n. when it does finally give up, I want to have a go at replacing it myself. Can I get away with just changing the friction plates or will I have to change steel plates as well.
  7. Hello I have a Yamaha XJ6N with 33bhp restictor fitted. When I pull the throttle back after changing gear there is a delay before throttle kicks in. At the moment it only seems to happen when bike is cold, once warmed up it's okay. Any help will be much appreciated
  8. Hello Guys Well I done it, took my bike test back in October 2012 on WR125x and passed and now I have a XJ6N with a restrictor fitted. When the time comes I will want to remove restrictor, is this an easy job to do, or will I have to take bike to a Yamaha dealer? Any help would be much appreciated.
  9. Thanks for you help, much appreciated. All the best for the new year
  10. Hello I've recently purchased a naked XJ6 and want to change the spark plugs. I've taken the side panels to see if I can access the plugs, but there doesn't seem to be any room, so I tried to manoeuvre radiator out of the way without disconnecting the hoses but with out much luck. After abut half an hour I gave up and put panels back on. Any help will be much appreciated. Anyway, I hope you all had a great Christmas.
  11. Thanks pilninggas.

    Take a look at Spada Icon boots.
  16. Thanks for all your help
  17. cannot not fit bobbins to swing arm as there is no where to mount them. The paddock stand I was thinking of purchasing has universal cup fittings.
  18. Hello Again Does anyone know if a rear paddock stand will work with a Yamaha WR125X Supermoto?
  19. Hi As anyone thought or attempted to use the front and rear sprocket from a YZF R125 and put them in a WR125X. If so what was the end result?

    Hi Guys Just purchased a Black Yamaha WR125X, and I have to say I love this motorbike except for one thing: the plastic panels. They scratch very easily . Does anyone know of a good polish or wax that will get rid of these scratches and give a nice shiny finish? any help would be much appreciated.
