looking for parts, mostly plastics for a Yamaha XT225. not picky on color. Any suggestions?

thanks man

its been many years since i rode on the road, insurance considers me a new rider since there has been too many years between policies. i hoped my age would help lower the cost but apparently as you get older you are more prone to accidents ( so the insurance company says). I've lost my need for...

yes, $$$$$$$$. well if money is an issue. They really don't want these bikes on the road anymore. Ins is more than the bike is worth.

Its actually a 94, Was not a fan of the original color scheme with the slash marks. I've always preferred the color scheme on the 91, and since the 91 is hard to find i had this one painted to look like a 91. Only a few subtle difference in appearances, rear tail light and body lines. Only a...

Both are tried tested and true. This is like asking Ford or Chevy? My point is, for occasional off road both are great bikes and both have pros and cons. I have no brand loyalty I love bikes period.

Where my Gixer guys at? who can spot what is different about this bike?

First ride on my recently resurrected GSX1100r. Takes me back :D.

excellent advice, i agree this bike will get full going over before putting it back on the road. My plan was to flip it but the more i stare at it and read about them the more i like it. Just might be a keeper.

you are probably correct, i did get the yamaha service manual with bike, but prefer to discuss and learn from the vets before tackling.

Thanks, it appears to be mostly un-butchered. Cosmetically i'd give it a 7 maybe 8 once i've attended a few minor details. Will make a nice daily driver.
