  3. It's a 1997 dragstar, it's got only 6000 miles and appears to be in great condition. No rust and everything's sparkling. Got my test on Friday, hope to hell I pass! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Lol no mate. It's not much oil but would rather get it sorted before it gets worse. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Great advice, it makes more confident reading all of this Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. It was more near the front of the bike I think, I'll have to have a better look. My last bike seemed to do this aswell, Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi folks, not sure if this is being posted in the right place. So apologies, but I have my module 2 on Friday, it got moved forward and would really appreciate some tips. When I'm out with the instructor he is doing so many check and looks that I feel all most confused, I find my head bobbing in every direction lol. Any advice are experiences would be great for me. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks folks, I've already bought that v twin oil and the acf50 after reading the comments above. Happy I found this forum it's really helpful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Nice one mate! I'll be buying this. All the comments are really helpful, I love the bike! It looks fucking amazing I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Pip was meant to be oil lol don't know how that happened lol. What is acf50? I'd say I'd be getting 6000miled of her a year pretty easy, I'll maybe leave the bike in to my local mechanic and have him check it over. I'll have a look at the silver spark plugs also. The bike seems in great condition, one concern was this morning I checked her and a small puddle of oil was on the ground. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Hey folks, just bought my first big bike, a yamaha dragstar 650, I really want to keep her in great condition. I was riding a 125 virago and it was my first bike, I feel I should have got her serviced more. When do people recommend a service and oil change, any help would be great thanks.

  12. Hi toutsuite, I don't think there has been any modifications to the bike, it must be as you said, I had her sitting idle in the garage for a good bit then took her on a short spin. I'm glad that it seems normal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Hi everyone, I recently bought a yamaha dragstar 650, it's my first big bike after riding my 125 virago for 3 years. I took her out today for about 10minutes and brought her back. I went no faster than 30mph and the engine and pipes where roasting, like real hot. Is this normal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
