Re: AberdeenBikers Rides
Almost finished this wee gem.
1979 Yamaha DT175MX. 2K4 model, German spec (hence method of mounting indicators), less than 4000 on the clock
Started with this weather-beaten example-
to this-
then this-
Just need to free off the clutch plates, set the oil pump, MOT/tax and run over it with the spanners to check all bolts/nuts. Garage stinks of two stroke now!!

Re: AberdeenBikers Rides
I was given a CBF600 as a hire bike for a couple of weeks after an "incident" with a Datsun Micra. The seating position wierded me out at first but it soon became a hoot to ride. It even embarrassed a Gay Blade on the Slug (pants).elaine.sudz wrote:

The swear filter on this site has some interesting entries. Don't worry about words getting changed seemingly at random.

Re: AberdeenBikers Rides
Hey folks!
Met a dude at the beach the other day on a Z1000 - directed me to your forums, so I'm a new member :)
I did my DAS a couple weeks ago and have nabbed this awesome 2001 Yamaha Thundercat 600R from my uncle for a measly £700! Full MOT with that. It's got 60k on it but it runs perfectly! It'll be getting a new set of tyres and a good service at some point too. Here's a few pics!

Got this a month or so ago from Ally7, back on the road after a wife induced ban.

Re: AberdeenBikers Rides
This puppy is being put back on the road thanks to a deal found on this very forum.
New S/S lines ordered and quick look over and MOT at a local bike garage and She'll be ready to go.
Something a bit different than my old Big Mans Wanger ...cannae wait
