What's that coming over the hill?

Okay a little cheesey thread title but I have been humming that bloody song all week!

Hi all. My name is Ryan but I usually go by the name of Ginger. I have just this week manned up. After spending months looking for a Suzuki GS500 I said f**k it and bought the bike that I have been lusting after for years.
I have just bought a M600 Dark. It's black (of course) with yellow frame and I only have to look at it and I am nursing a semi.
Haven't riden her as of yet as I am waiting for a restrcitor kit to be fitted as I am under 21 (damm law!).

Just leaves one question - Anyone want to buy an '07 Yamaha YBR125??

Ginger

Welcome!

If memory serves correctly, the dark/yellow frame 600s were a limited run

F**KING MINT!!!
I didn't know that the yellow and black was a limited run. I did always think that the Dark was pretty much all over black so when I saw this a small alarm bell did ring. I have uploaded a file so you can have a look. She is in mint condition and only done 5500 miles! I've done more than that on my little 125!Oh and in reply to what have I just done - I don't know, don't care, not sure if I can even really afford it but I know one thing: I am grinning from ear to ear!!

if you are looking for a restrictor kit don't go with F.I international!! try and find someone to fit a throttle restrictor and get them to dyno it saves alot of excess cost from that damn company

Cheers guys.

I am happy to have found some like minded people who possible love these bikes more than I do!

I'm getting my restrictor fitted probably on Thursday next week. There's been a slight cock up with the log book (The guy who I bought it off gave me the old one ) So I'll have to buy a new one from the DVLA for £25!! What a rip off! Still get her all taxed and insaured next week (The nice girl in the DVLA office said that I could tax it on the documents I got - I think secretly that she was turned on by the monster... Can't blame her!) And I will be ready to rock and roll. Hopefully be at the Weston Bike night on the 30th if anyone will be down there let me know and we could meet up. You won't miss me - I'm the one with the yellow wheels!!!!!
