There is someting blocking your driveway. :rolleyes:

It's like skips and mattresses. You leave your driveway alone for 10 mins and somebody parks a 350Z in it.

Couple of pics of my bike.. Been off the road for a while, getting a bit of a makeover..
It's a 97 Yamaha Dragstar 650...

When I got it..


Stripped down..


As it stands now..


Bodywork should be back next week so hope to have it all back together and on the road within 2 weeks.. Hopefully the sun will be back by then!

What's on the exhaust? It looks great? Where did you get it done?

Just exhaust wrap... Got it online and did it myself. Handy enough to do..

Brand new from bikeworld. Fairly predictable first bike but I love it to bits.

(my friend sitting on it, try and ignore his ridiculous loafers :P)

Class colour choice

Black - the safe bet.

They probably look best in red or blue tbh.

Here's a few pics of my CB550F. Sort of ongoing restoration project. Always wanted one when I was a young fella but hadn't a hope of affording anything of the like. Got it in the UK in '04 for £300 running ok but a bit shabby. Left in storage until the mid-life crisis kicked in properly last year when I started bolting new bits on and polishing the rest. Done 2000k in the last year and a pleasure to drive apart from that it can't be stopped leaking petrol when stopped. Tarmac owners beware.

Finished at last, got out for a short spin this morn.. Need to get tax and a plate done up before I take her out for a propper spin.. Time to enjoy the summer before I strip it down over the winter for a damn good clean and finish all the bits I didn't get a chance to do this time..

Sweet bike, the hard work has paid off there!
