Why not just ride the standard bike?

There's a little steel/rubber washer that goes on/in the camchain adjustment that screws into the back of the barrel. Without that it makes a ticking noise. Check all components there compared to parts book in camcahin adjuster

Back in the olden days entered a short circuit meeting at a place called Nemingha near Tamworth. There were all sorts of bikes from motocross (An old grey haired bloke on a Maico called Willis was one) to sliders of all sorts even a Yamaha twin, rumours were of a pretty fast kid that should do well. Most bikes were running on methanol and pretty tricked out. The kid was on a Yamaha, a standard Yamaha MX from memory (Bit clouded, long time ago). He absolutely blitzed all the regular bikes and was top 3 most of the time with the A graders. I'm sure he was a C grader at the time, his name was Steven Gall.

I bet this hurt . Still hanging on to the bars though, so he still thinks he might be able to save it. Lucky he has all the safety gear on , like the sandshoes and denim shorts. This thread probably belongs in the photo section.
Tattoo's will protect him

I did like the guitarist, I was laughing out loud, drew a few "Shut up you old fart, that's not meant to be funny" stares.

I'm too old for all that epic battle stuff, the non stop action/fights/explosions left me bored. I nearly walked out a couple of times. Is it aimed at the kiddies? Did anybody else find it way over the top?

Didn't the RM370A have a steel swingarm? Is the A the first model or was there just a plain RM? The RM125A had a steel swingarm.

General Discussion / Auction?
« on: September 12, 2014, 09:03:09 am »
Has anybody beside that other website set up an auction?
The likes of this website could have a similar set up only if the bike/object is sold the percentage fee goes to the running of this website. Some basic rules like bidders have to be registered and have some history would need to be stated. The net based auction site has now taken off the buy it now option if a bid is made. Is it worth the hassle Graeme?
