A few pics of my YZF 750 through the ages work in constant progress

Its had a hard life

Before it was crashed, then crashed again, then yep crashed again all of which where caused by tin box driving fools who love to drive into me



Minor damage really





looking a bit grey



some temporary fiberglass racing panels from a yzf 600 cut and made to fit.



Just bought these from a very ace bloke in Holland


Just need a decent belly pan now

Sheep 1 Motorcyclist 0 - wool isn't soft when you hit it at 40MPH

Sounds like the public is determined to keep you on a project bike. Good luck with the rebuild. Ride safe !

cheers mate just need to make it law to ride a motorcycle for 2 yrs before you can get into a car. That way people will know how to drive properly.

its always women drivers that seem to cause me to come off, even the sheep was a female

Put some new bits on it now it just needs a few bits sprayed to match it all up

Looking good

A new addition i picked up today. A 1993 model in colin edwards replica paint scheme i belive. Needs a good clean and a new battery, plugs, for seal etc but otherwise its fine and dandy

Just have to get time now to paint the top fairing on the other one now.



John

You're acquiring a nice collection of bikes

So what colour you gonna paint it?

WOOT! where you been Ian?!?!?!

Im gonna keep it pearl white and blue i think just make it all match properly, at the moment im having trouble with the electrics playing up so im gonna sort that first then get the paint sorted.

Hi Tim,
Not been online very much lately. I spend most weekends away from early march until the end of Oct so I tend to spend the weekday evenings trying to do all the jobs that I'm supposed to do at weekends.
Been spending quite a bit of time preparing stuff for my claim against my employers for my accident last year. I'm due back at the hospital next week for another assesment of my eye so hopefully they may be able to give me some idea when they can operate to remove the cataract, and hopefully do something to make my eye focus a little better.
As a result of the accidednt my pupil is enlarged so its pretty uncomfortable in the sun. I have to wear dark glasses pretty much all the time to shield it from the light.
I've still not ridden since the accident, but theres always hope!

Mate I hope you take them to cleaners, eyes are one of the most important things. That eye looks bad in the pics in your signature. I know of a bloke by me that rides with a single eye, I imagine it is pretty hard to judge distance thought without the two eyes.

best of luck to you, if you loose burn the place down

John

Not much chance of me loosing. They're admitted full liability. I've just got to push from every angle to make sure I get as much as possible out of it. No amount of money will fix my eye, but it can sure help take my mind of it.
