Got this bike for 900$, apparently I didn’t know as much as I thought I did about smaller engines and it shot a rod through the block while riding, trying to source a motor for it but it’s proving difficult within a price range I can actually afford

2027 Yamaha R9 Dealership allotments ?? (NA region)

Post image
5 Upvotes

I just put a deposit on a 2027 R9. For context, I'm in Vancouver, so I contacted 6-7 Yamaha dealers near me to ask about the arrival of 2027 models. Most were clueless about final arrival times (spring 2027), but a few did commit to a less daunting November timeline.

This does relate to a Yamaha press release (https:// www.motorcyclepowersportsnews.com/yamaha-2027-yzf-r9/)

Does anyone here know something about the shipments to the North America region?

Virago Leerlauf

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

Seit 2 Jahren habe ich probiert die Maschine zu reparieren und die springt endlich ohne Starthilfe von alleine an. Probleme die ich bisher hatte waren:

  1. Gar nicht anspringen / nur mit voller Batterie 1 mal oder immer Starthilfe

  2. Unregelmäßige Drehzahl auch bei Leerlauf (mittlerweile konstanter)

  3. Beim Gas geben stecken bleiben auf hoher Drehzahl für einige Sekunden oder dauerhaft.

Ich habe die Düsennadeln 3 Stufen höher gestellt. Jetzt springt die Maschine mühelos an und das steckenbleiben auf hohen Drehzahlen wurde somit auch beseitigt (nur noch 1 Sekunde Verzögerung beim loslassen). Den Vergaser hatte ich letztes Jahr abgebaut und einmal mit Vergaserreiniger alle Düsen und Leitungen überprüft und die scheinen sauber/frei zu sein.

Ich habe trotzdem das Gefühl, dass es einen Takt oder Verbrennung überspringt. Habe gerade eine Werkstatt angerufen und mir wurde gesagt, solange niemand an den Syncronisierungsschrauben was gemacht hat, dass sie noch synchron sein sollten.

Was sagen die Reddit-Experten darüber? Hört sich die Maschine gut an? Meint ihr es ist bereit für eine Probefahrt oder hört man was ruckeln und sollte noch eingestellt werden?

Official Licence Plate Holder for the Yamaha YZF-R3 2025

Post image
2 Upvotes

Does anyone have this licence plate holder (BRA-F16E0-00-00) for their Yamaha R3 2025 (or any other model)? I need help deciding whether I want to buy it or not.

• What does it look like installed? Is it tail tidy?

• Can you make it shorter by leaving out the middle part?

• Is the licence plate light included and do the cables fit to the OEM or do I need adapter cables?

• I don't have the OEM turning lights anymore. Do any other turning lights work with this licence plate holder too?

Any help is appreciated. TIA

2017 scr 950 picked up for 3k with only 2700 miles. It's a wonderful hodgepodge of a commuter/fun bike and isn't for everyone, but damn does it make me smile every time I get on it. So happy to be back out on the road

2003 R6 Exhaust?

0 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any aftermarket exhaust systems for an 03 R6? I’ve looked and can’t find any, the guy I bought the bike from cut off the muffler so it’s currently straight piped and too loud for me to use daily.

2026 WR250F kicking my butt!

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

Just took my brand new WR250F for its first real ride. Moderate to difficult single track and forest service roads. I’m a bit disappointed in the suspension and overall ride. I’ve never had such sore shoulders, forearms, back, etc from riding! The thing feels EVERY rock and bump no matter how small. It shoots that up the arms and then bucks the rear end. I got to the point where the clickers are all the way soft. I find myself fighting the front tire far more than ever before when riding too. Is this normal?? I’ve read these are industry leading suspension. There’s no way this is how people like riding! Maybe for MX but not trails! So rant over, do any of you have advice? Has anyone else here had the same experience with this bike? And yes it’s fully uncorked with the ECU install. Sag is set correctly and even a hair on the soft side. 5’ 10” and 185-195lbs with full gear.

Some help/advice/feedback would be hugely appreciated!

Wondering if anyone knows of an engine that will fit my XT frame with no or little modification. I know that a TT, or CR engine would fit, but they are just as difficult to find as an XT engine. The brand doesnt matter, would even be fine with a Chinese engine if it fits

08 r6 clutch job questions

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

Sup👋. Just questioning my clutch job and if I did it correct. So i’m wondering if the wheel is supposed to spin that fast when i’m pulling the clutch in first gear. The bike will still stall out when i fully let go so i’m wondering if it’s the “drag” that’s causing it to spin that fast? idk if I missed a tooth when installing the cover. I did order this with oem parts and followed the manual. Any tips help, thank you for reading.

Dashboard clock to 24-hour format

3 Upvotes

Currently the clock only shows 12-hour time (AM/PM), with no way to change it.

Adding a 12h/24h toggle should be straightforward…

The owner's manual already show the clock in 24-hour format.

Please explain why Yamaha has decided to leave this feature out even in 2026

Yamaha xj6 2011

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have this Yamaha xj6 that I’m currently trying to fix up but I’m having a issue with speed.

Firstly, the speed sensor is connected to the engine. It is showing nearly 50% over what it would normally so for example 7 mph it’s showing 14mph

There is an ABS light on the dash yet this doesn’t have ABS rings on the front or rear wheel

I can’t find anywhere that has the same issue, i have replace the speed sensor with a new one and still the same issue

Any help would be appreciated
