Re: Just come to say hi.
Hi Lee, welcome to the forum.
5VY is a nice move in the right direction
Don't worry about Kyle, since they've told him he is being kept in a padded van and not a padded cell, he's starting to think he's just like everyone else...he's just reaching out...much better than reaching around
Unfortunately, this is what you have to look forward to if you continue in your quest for all things Yamaha.
,,,personally I'd buy a Kawasaki, much safer and less long term psychological damage...although you may end up with the odd broken neck or two.

Re: Just come to say hi.
Cracking bike Lee, and for me the best colour of the 5vy, i had one a few years ago and they go on and on and on, they are like the little Duracell bunny, keep them services and they won't let you down.
This was mine
I loved her to bits

So your bike looks truly mint and she really is a rocket, enjoy her.

Welcome dude. She is lush. [emoji7] [emoji12]
I too have a 5vy and am just coming to grips with it.[emoji16] [emoji28] [emoji28] There are a few good discussions and tips for mods etc on the 5vy on here. If you have'nt already read them, then do so. [THUMBS UP SIGN][THUMBS UP SIGN] Well worth it if you wanna start modding. [emoji12] [emoji108] [emoji106] [emoji106]

Re: Just come to say hi.
Thanks fella. Just been out for a blast again and just seems to whine between 3-4k rpms in second so will just leave it I think as can't see they will do anything with a noise and no failure. Will have to start riding with ear plugs and get a loud exhaust lol
But my God is she fast. Tries lifting the front wheel in third on some rds, making my 04 fireblade feel like a 600cc pmsl
