Hello from leeds -

Hi everyone!

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

Loving it

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

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

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)

nice

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.

We LOVE pictures on here so pictures of work in progress will always be appreciated.

Looks and Sounds like a nice bike.
Hopefully get to meet on a ride out next year.

Cheers
Rosco

Snowcat im originally from Littleborough but have settled in leeds after uni (get a lot of gripe at work for being from Lancashire)

I will get some photos on soon, i have parts on order for my replacement dials, a 12v power socket, and both replacement rear brake and gear levers etc so I will probably do it all together and take some good before and afters...

And I will definitely by up for ride outs when the weather improves, i will check out the forum proper and see whats on

Just on dalesides, off galloway lane

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.

Hi Ian

just revisiting this thread - wondering if you have your bike up and running and back on the roads now?

Ive been riding all through the winter (must be mad)
