Hi.. I'm new to the forum.. I've a red & white 1998 r1 which I bought new 7/5/1998.. And I still love it..
I'm contemplating reprinting the belly pan but yamaha don't sell the decals anyore I've been searching for the belly pan decals ( the 4 speed blocks in pearl white with the rear one fading to red) on line and have bought several sets - all crap. Does anyone on the forum have a source for them
Regards Dave

Welcome in Dave
I some how don't think theres any point in posting the "new to 4xv/5jj's" post i have save
good luck in finding the right decals
As Clarky said get some pic's up , i will copy and paste the how to post pic's post that i have
"get yourself a free photobucket account & follow the idiots guide to posting pics from your pc
posting.php?mode=reply&f=6&t=10659
if you don't want to open a photobucket account then an alternative is go to
http://tinypic.com/
1 - "choose file" and browse to the image you wish to upload from your PC
2 - In the "resize" drop down choose either 15" or 17" screen (15 is enough and fast too)
3 - Press "upload now" where it will ask you to type in a couple of words to confirm you are a human being and not an automated program.
4 - Once done copy the text from the "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" field
5 - Then just paste it exactly as is in to your message.
or you can post direct from your not so smart phone using tapawank (tapatalk) it's great for posting pic's & notifications but wank for viewing the forum

Re: 4xv new on here
Welcome, congrats on keeping the bike so long. I've only had my 4xv for a year and a half!
When you get a chance, I'd be interested to read more about your bike.
