Its actually pronounced DE-ATH like a dodgy name rather than death.. but its the name of Yamaha dealer DAVE DEATH

I really want to change the number plate but im thinking getting rid of it might tempt fate and NO THANKS to that...

Don't be worrying about Fate ... Fate's a right soft tw@t ...
Fate has Fuggin' Tupperware Parties with Charity & Destiny ...
They're a right bunch of old women ...

No ...

You wanna be worrying about Death ...
He's a bad Mutha if ever i saw one ...
Goes boozing with the bloke in the ragged suit, 'Poverty' & his mates
'Pestilence' 'Famine' & 'Plauge'
They're a fookin' bad bunch, i tell ya' ..

'Fate' was the fecker that put the Landrover in place ...
For a laugh like .. But it was Death who was waiting for you !

So, what we're saying ...
Is everytime you ride your bike ...
Death is always firmly on your bike's tail !!

Not on my shift m8 ... biggrin

If your family name is linked to cider manufacturers from a bygone era ..

WTF Do you think Cuddly Dave De' Ath's Family Used To Do For A Living ?



When i was 16 on me' 50 [see login name !] ...
My mate's old man named me ...

When i rev hard through the gears mine vibrates/rattles very hard at the top of gears, im revvin far into the powervalve but it really vibrates hard, can feels it through my ass!
Feels like something is banging/knocking, but if it is was something bangin when i rev hard in top of gears it would when idling aswell wouldnt it, seeing as the piston doesnt go higher or lower the higher you rev, or does it?
But i dont think there is a rattle while idling, saying that im only starting it up once a week since my crash? Should i be concerned about that heavy rattle?

Nothing to worry about craig and fray and whoever else, i have the exact same rattle, took pv cover off to investigate and found if i push on the pv its stops temporarily, so its no big deal tbh.

Bearing in mind this is only since my dep silencer has been on so maybe its because its made the powervalve a bit more ferocious.

nothing wrong with it you fairy...

mines done more miles than yours by a long shot and it sounds like that. I had a tzr125 @ 29k miles and that was the same. I had my 04 from only 4k miles and it doesnt sound any difference now than it did 4 years ago..

Its NORMAL.. bearing noise. When its proper rattling then worry!!

nath a dt will knock if its not warmed up.. especially higher mileage bikes that are more coked up..

if its warm and its still knocking then its something else.. vibration at high revs could be anything. something loose ie engine bolts etc.. Or it could be main bearings if its real bad or someone has messed with the engine...
