New YZF......

[graham247]

Hi all,

OK...so it's not a stroker,......but finally managed to to bag a 98 plate YZF-750R. I've been after one for some time and this came up at the end of August;

Had all the fairings off and she's in pretty good nick. Early days and a few things to sort and some new tyres but she's a blast to ride. Pretty standard condition too.


Here's some pics;

That looks nice. Nearly mint?

No not mint but pretty good all round condition. I've managed to get 90% of the dent out of the Tank using a cheap hot-glue/puller kit off of e-bay. Took a bit of time but worth doing. Other than that replaced missing bar-ends with original look-a-likes and same with replacement footpegs, taken them back to stock.

Had a bit of an overheating problem when I first got her, traced to a dicky fan-switch that wasn't operating. So replaced that and all ok. Needs a pair of new tyres but she rides really nicely. For a 750 sports-bike it's pretty roomy really.
