opinions and banter accepted, colour/engine size/model choice comments ignored....  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Servicing, put it this way - you should have changed the oil/filter 3 times already on Sunday.

Having had a go on the Yam up and down an industrial estate, I can safely say it is just a little bit lairy ;)

Maybe i'm getting old, but i'm happy to admit it'd be too lairy for me. I'm quite content with half the power!
