I hope that's not the reason for her inheriting the machine

I wouldn't have thought so, then it would have been 2002 Yamaha YZF R1 in pieces

That Honda aint doin owt for me. For that money I'd have an X-type; they have chain cams don't they?

I was worried but now I'm £600 lighter

Glad I did actually, it feels different after the belt change.

Still a bit wobbly under load below 1500 RPM. Not cam belt, not engine mount, maybe just getting old?

Among all the motorcyclists here, is a harley davidson a good choice?

For what? If you want a bike that looks nice then yes. If you want a bike that goes, stops and handles nice then you're probably looking in the wrong place.

Well as a farmer you drive tractors so yes one may suit you

FarmerPug; can you try not to veer away from the topic of conversation so much. It is making the forum difficult to read.

I've fitted Alloy timing gears to my 2 Essex V6's (Scimitar SE5 and 5A), they're noisier than the nylon gears, but I sleep a lot better knowing they're in there.
