Iv'e seen that before but it's still fekin' great :wink:

Oh I see.

Oh well that'll be that, I suppose I could allways still and sell or put a 1k engine in it. I know there's a link somewhere here about Denis (I think) someone or other. I just trying to think what I'll do if it doesn't sell thats all, I thought I wouldn't have had to much trouble selling a bike like that.

I spoke to Steve in Ride on, and said to him about it, he reckons putting it back to standard eg lowering the seat, raising the forks, oh! and putting the proper fork oil in it. Cause I met a guy one, who used to own it and he said he'd put heavier oil in them. So I suppose really with all the above said it would be realitively comfy in standard trim. Cause after all, when doing things like that, your messing about the factory frame geometry.

Iv'e had about 25 bikes since I started in 1980 all sorts, mostly road bikes mind you, but totaly diffirent kinds. One of my last ventures was a road registered CR500 :shock: :twisted: fekin' great!!. But the vibes fekin ell' :shock: , but after all it's not built for the road.

Thing is, if the bike doesn't sell I'll have no choice but to keep/use it, simple.

Yea I know I know, I sat on one in Ride on the other week and seemed pretty much ok. But it's when you ride it thats the problem, I just these sports bikes, but y'see my back end's been jacked up, so it's no wonder really I'm sliding into the tank. Plus the forks have dropped about 1cm in the yokes, but if I do keep it, I'll pull the forks back up, and get the seat lowered. I really have to a pic of this thing and send it in, and let you all see it.

To get a 750 (YZF) bored out to 1k, just curious.

These screws (well small bolts) about half way on the down pipes. anyone know?, Iv'e got them on mine.

Then I'll keep the bike and put it back to "standard", I really like another FJ120 though, but I'll just have to see how things go. I had planned for the new 04 R1, but not right now, and to quite frank I dont know if I could handle one either.

Have you got a "rubber" cheque book too

Mine's black.

Aha!, I got that very same shite twice infact in the last couple of days too, I just wrote back. Scammers are not welcome here, with cheques sponsored by Dunlop ect, got that!!, so piss off and dont fuckin' bother me again!!! Y'know it's funny I have had any since yesterday. Straight to the point usually does the trick!!!

Thats exactly what I mean, youv'e obviously been ridin' as long as me and know what I mean. Well then again you must have started in the late 80's, well I'm 10 yrs before you again.

Nope!, not yet. I didnt put it in the bike trader, or do you mean the Ad trader (the blue n Yellow paper), it's in that, and a couple of other sites.

Well done Mozzy :wink: Y'see it just goes to show, us auld farts still have it!!

Dont get me wrong Yamhead, Iv'e only been drivin' cars for 7 years the rest are on bike's. Iv'e had my fair share of getn soaked and still do, if I'm out and get cought out, I aggree it makes you a better rider. What I'm sayin' is, for me (and quite alot of others too, and maybe you too) the bike and car are sittin' beside each other in the drive. Now if it's pourin' you look outside and say "will I take the car or the bike". You'd be stupid to take the bike, unless of course the cars not goin', buts this is just my opinion.

WTF is he doing with that there sheep, surely thats gota be illegal Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :wink:

I'm something the same as you, Iv'e been riding since the 80', I'm 40 with my YZF750, so called race rep! Yes we are veiwed on as bit odd because (as you say) "society" says that once you reach a ceratin age you should have the "nice car", and "grow up". Well fuck them and their "nice cars" "trimmed lawns" "Ikea everythings the same". Thats like my neighbor the other day I was goin' out (on the bike), she says "oh my oldest boy wants a bike, but I told him get a "nice car" there much safer and better than these bike's. I really had to bite my tongue, cause I dont really know them that well, I just kinda laughed, yea yea! We all know what these "born again's" are like too, these are the one's who are causing most of the problem (I think). People like me, XT ect ect have been ridin' for years, and just because you have a "race rep" doesn't mean your a "nob head". Sure everyone can go bloody quick and sometime's does, and I for one wont sit in traffic if theres a gap, no way!. Thats what bikes are made for isn't it!!, to cut through all these tin boxs, it really makes my blood boil when these aresholes think they know it all and know fuck all. They probably haven't even been on a fuckin' bike :evil: Btw, I'm still looking for the FJ12. Hey!, I'll tell you all this (if you dont allready aggree/know), get all those wankers in the "nice cars" "tin fuckin' boxs" on a bike just for one day one fuckin' day!!!!, then lets see them. I just wonder how many would/will think think "fuck me, this is great, thrilling. dangerous ect ect ect". But most of all, they might just might! think before they use their "get out of jail free card", "oh, sorry mate I didn't see you!!!!!!!!!!!" :evil: :evil: :evil: Mate!, your no fuckin' mate of mine!!!!!!!

The thing is when you have a car, you tend not ride in the wet!, well I dont. What the point of diliberately going out to get soaked!, it's diffirent if your allready out and starts raining (well in the UK anyway), then you have to "adjust" your riding techniqe there n then, plus get soaked.

I'll have a good at their site :wink:

Sounds a bit to good to be true if you ask me!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...5108630413&rd=1

Well thats me out!!!, I'm sometime's braking like a madman :? :oops: :wink:

Only do the end can.

Thanks for that, but It's in the States!
