Thanks Evil
He certainly can take a good photo.
I think CMM is getting much better under new editorship.
I am on holiday at the moment but will try to link some images when I get home.

Road test is now in the Nov Edition (Classic motorcycle mechanics)with some superb photography.
It fairs better than I expected on the test as they are not to everyones liking.
Worth a read.

Nice ride write up, although he uses some weird long words and makes some odd mistakes, like the right pedal isn't a gear change.
Did the bike really take four attempts to start it ??? :o

Hi I haven't been around here for a long time but that's not to say I have sold the bike - sort of the opposite really- I sold other bikes and hung on to the Yam. the Kwak 810 straightliner has taken alot of my time over the last few years with mixed success. I have not ridden the Yam that much but have enjoyed every mile that I have done. Just as a heads up if anyone is going the the Classic Motor Show at the NEC http://www.necclassicmotorshow.com/ in November my Yam will be on the Maynards Engines stand 3-522 and I will be there with it on Saturday. Maynards did the relining for me.

Hope everyone is doing well.
