Wahay! Another MT-03 rider; that makes 3 of us in this illustrious bike club.

Now, onto the important questions that need to be settled before we progress any further:

1. Do you own a land rover
2. Do you have a fetish for camping stoves
3. Who is your favourite weather girl?

All these are hot topics on this forum...though sometimes, we talk about bikes as well!

Fellow Singletons
I'm ready, if you'll pardon the expression, to get my Black Ball out. No Land Rover, no collection of antique camping stoves, and to top it off the fella wants to go out in the rain with this old trout:



Sorry but I for one feel that this is lowering the already pitiful entrance criteria of the club.

On the otherhand he does actually own a single cylinder motorbike and that must count for something? Welcome aboard.........

Boyd, I think you make a very valid point although I do wish you would leave that poor withered little black 'un where is isn't likely to offend.

So Bonzoid young man, have you got a petrol camp stove? Do you have a mate who could lend you one...Pat got under the wire but apart from naturally (beer/stout) occurring Gas  is strictly infradig..

I'm proud. I dont have a petrol stove and I am a member of this club! Hahaha. I use some dodgy gas powered thing when necessary, though my last forays into the wilderness have involved pukka camp fires and living off the land.

Is this a euphamism for the scaffolding company, which supplies Kirstie's support garments?  ??? ???

Looks like I got back on line just in time to defend (not that we need it) the smarter sider of this club. By that I mean the 'modernists' or as we are sometimes referred too as 'Them that cook on Gas'. Welcome matey, and if we should meet at a camp sometime and you need a brew in a hurry, head my way.  8)

DAMN! Just as I sold mt MT-03, you guys all turn up!

Great bikes, but REALLY uncomfy (I'm very skinny tho...no padding at all). Finally got rid to make room for my Dad's XBR as he retires from kickstart bikes (he still has an electric start 250), but will miss the cycle-like handling and nippiness, and the sound.

Ahem, still got bits for sale (see that section).


And as for owning an MT in Ireland....what about the rust? It's typical Yamaha!

XBR500,  FT500 (USA reg still but now starts/runs nicely!)
non-thumpers CX500EC, NTV650P
