Thinking of going over to the Black Forest in September and looking for tips...

I'm looking at riding the B 500, has anyone had any experiance and pointers for campsites etc? All I've seen bikerwise is the Pension William which gets glowing reviews.

All help gratefully received!

Hi could anyone point me in the right direction for decent front braided brake lines? Looked on ebay so far and cant decide who to go for .

Like some, after 30mins the left side of my bum begins to ache. I believe its either the riding pos or the seat, as my bandit 600 dosent cause the same type/level of discomfort etc, so...

1. is it a riding position issue (which I am leaning towards) that maybe fixed by changing the rider foot peg, bum and handlebar positions..?
2. is there any more that can be done to the stock seat that will help (fyi I have tried with a local upholster, with changed profiles etc (lower, different density foam etc)and it just made it worse)

Last resort is I go and buy an air hawk and have inflated just enough to keep my 'sit bones' from touching the fazer seat etc.

Just checked the TPS and it was reading 7-8K. Now reset to 5k. Would that explain a bit of hesitency at low revs? It also set me thinking before I found that reading that the problem may have been a fuel filter which I have never changed in three years. Do I go for genuine Yam spares for that or are copy filters adequate?

After 5 months of stupidly getting disqualified It's time for me to get my bike ready for june 22nd


Basically the main thing that i've got to do is replace my engine and i'm asking whether anyone has done this and could possible give me a step by step guide if it's not to much trouble.


Also i've noticed as she's been sat outside for a few months the brakes are sticking, took her for a little half mile run, got back and the discs where red hot and i'm guessing, Come MOT time it's probably going to fail on this.


Is there anything I should do to the brakes to try and free them up a bit, or is it a sort of thing that would kind of fix its self as she starts riding again?


Any help would be muchly appreciated as i've only got a month really to get her back and ready


Cheers in advance
