    Waited a long time for this one!

    After taking it for a test ride just before Christmas last year I ordered a new 2017 model and was told it would arrive on 6 January. Well, I waited and waited and waited. The dealer told me Yamaha New Zealand had a massive warehouse stock software problem and that nothing was leaving the...

    Hello, I'm new to this forum after recently buying myself a 2015 MT-09tra. Two years ago I downsized from a zx10r to a 650 Versys. The sports bikes weren't suitable for the type of biking I'd grown into and I thought a change of direction was called for. The wee Versys was a fantastic bike for...

    Did I hear my brake calliper pistons just go pop ? I dont mean go bang, just a muffled pop, like you might hear if you put a cup upside down on the table. Bike is only 8 weeks old, and has sat in the garage for 2 weeks whilst it was damp and too cold to ride. Sunny day yesterday, got to end of...

    Don't Buy a Yamaha

    I had a minor prang on 1st February and the insurer authorised repairs a week later. The bike is still in the shop today awaiting parts, which won't be in until next week. Yep, 6+ weeks for parts. The last time I had a Yam, 20 odd years ago, it was just the same. Not impressed.
