i dont even say anything about it.......

vfr750? cbr600f? gxsr600? older ninja 600's?

i test drive older ninja its not so good more hard

Why not keep the cat & treat your wife & daughter instead?

trade my wife and daughter you mean?
i think its something wrong with my bike but i cant say what, tell strange when i drive it

Kawasaki ZX9R....very similar, if not greater comfort levels when compared to a Thundercat and an absolute missle in a straight line. I have been lucky enough to ride a 2000 and 2003 models at various times. Fantastic bikes. Available very cheaply for the level of performance

FZS1000 Fazer?

I think you should stick with the Cat, after the couple of incidents you've had surly your insurance is going to be high if you go towards a more sports orientated bike?

What is it you are feeling that makes you think there is something wrong with your current Cat?

i dont know its just dont feel right.
yesterday when i oil chain i put bike on bike stand and when i start engine (gears on neutral) wheel start moving
when i drive i feel like REV is going up and down when i try to cape speed on the same level
( no accelerate and no slowing down)
my chain is very loose and i cant do anything couse cant get bolts off
loks like its take more Petrol then the one before

Sounds like it needs a service, new plugs, oil change, clean air filter and carb balance would sure help. As you know a loose chain doesn't help a smooth ride at all.

It is normal for the wheel to turn when on the stand and in neutral, but you should be able to easily stop it (not that I'd recommend you try though).

Find a decent service center and have it done professionally, especially seeing you are not able to loosen some bolts. I think you'll be amazed how the bikes feels afterwards.
If there is something really wrong with the bike, the mechanic should tell you about it.

service? o shit Yamaha service is very expensive and i dont really trust wee garage on the corner

But you've just come into some money? And Im sure a service is a whole lot cheaper than a new bike? Plus you'd sell it for a whole lot less if its got something wrong with it, Im sure.

There must be some decent mechy nearby.
I too wouldn't take mine anywhere near my Mr Yamaha workshop.
Maybe ask on the Scottish bikers forum who is good in your area.

Any reason you don't trust the wee garage? I take mine to possibly the most scruffy of looking places imaginable. The mechanic is good and I doubt there is anything he hasn't come across. He doesn't stick to manufacturers service check lists, goes over everything and adjusts/ replaces if needed.

+1

Try . .The Good Garage Scheme for a place near you.

Its for cars i know the first 10 on the list

Don't mention it Tom, glad to have been of assistance.

Tom get the clutch adjusted properly, and the chain adjusted properly before you do anything rash. sounds to me that could be your problem, if dirty bike Dave is around he may give you some assistance.....

Davie

THX all of you for advices. i will get service for bike
DBD can help me with what?

It is amazing how much a good thorugh service can refresh how your bike feels

just had mine done, new filters, plugs, caps, sprockets and chain was £270 all in and makes the cat feel so so fresh and smooth again.

Shame my speedo cable broke the day after.........
