Hi everyone!

Passed my DASI in August and chose a pristine red '99 Thundercat thundercat after recommendation from a friend...

Loving it Thumb

Came with a Remus exhaust and blue iridium double bouble screen from previous owner,

I now seem to be spending all my money on more "cosmetic" improvements ponder

Joined the site to meet like minded bike owners, learn from the wiser ones and hopefully attend a ride or two clink

Cheers!


Current "Mods":
*Remus end-can and pipe
*Blue iridium double-bubble screen
*Blue anodised full-length levers
*Blue anodised brake cylinder cap with Yamaha logo
*Carbon fibre look tank protector
*Carbon fibre look mirrors (soon to be swapped for integrated LED signal mirrors)
*Carbon fibre look yoke protector
*NCS Cyclone V2 Alarm/immobiliser with remote start

Planned additions:
#Solo seat racing cowl
#Blue Moman Indiglo instrument dials
#LED integrated mirrors
#Tail tidy
#Stubby LED rear indicators
#Gear ratio (-1 front, +2 back)

Hi and welcome to the forum, plenty of advice to be had on here from old heads and new, have a good look around and if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask, we're a pretty friendly bunch.

As for ride outs you're only up the road from me and we have a lot of forum events going on throughout the year. Have a peek in Something for the weekend and see what grabs you.

Hi, I am also from Leeds, keep an eye out for my bike, pretty hard to miss.

Only just bought it on Saturday, its been sat for quite along time so it will be a few weeks before its on the road again.
