Hi all, I'd just like to know what tyres do you guys recommend for my 750F1.
I'd like to get a set that looks something similar to the originals to keep the classic looks.
Cheers

Thanks for the the kind words guys, we're all just taking it one day at a time.
To be honest, the kids are the ones that are keeping me going, bless 'em.

Hi everybody,
It's been a while since I've posted on here and it's with a sad heart to inform you all of what has happened.
On Sept 18th the missus and me were on our way to the O2 arena in London to see Ozzy Osbourne. We were on the 900 Diversion that I bought earlier on this year, when the back tyre blew out on the M1, I lost control and we both came off the bike. My wife died on the way to hospital as a result of her injuries.
The Police investigation is still ongoing and I've found out since that the previous owner had a temporary puncture repair done on the back tyre and he failed to tell me this when I bought it of him.
If I'd have known about it I'd have replaced the tyre with out question.
I'm unable to work due to my injuries and I've got three young kids to look after.
So it's a very upsetting time for us all.
Andy

Wow!! I didn't realise they cost that much.
Is it by the same bloke in Wetherby that has Rising sun restorations?

Hi all, I've just got myself a Yamaha XJ900 today on a Rplate(97). It's gonna take some getting used to after riding my F1. I'll get a photo posted soon Andy P.S. The missus had a go on it and dropped the bloody thing. The fairing all scratched and front indicator lens has broken!!! Bloody women!!

To be honest mate I've not really been near it. It's starting to get me down a bit. I may have an hour or two on it tomorrow once I've got the grass cut. The bike really needs a full strip down and everything cleaned up. It will give me something to do over the winter months I suppose. Andy

Hya Den,
I'll double check valve clearances tonight, I also found out that I should've had the throttle wide open when I did the comp test so I'll re do that as well.

Test results No.1 135 psi
No.2 120
No.3 110
No.4 150
This was done on a cold engine as it won't run properly (only on No.4) to get it warm.
Could this be the head gasket blown?
Cheers
Andy
