What’s the info on that Yamaha? Looks superb.
Would love to own the stunning H2 in front of it though!! That looks interesting too.
The one that has an H2 parked in front of it....Which Yamaha?
Stupid boy...
I give up..... now about that SF1098S....How far in front, inches, furlongs, miles?
I’m trying to find some pictures of the Yam for you
I'd been wanting a 2 stroke for a few years but didn't know what to buy, it was getting a bit daft going out on 2 Stroke days with mates when I was on a 1098R or an R1. This popped up at Bonham's and I instantly fell in love with it's lines...
Didn't have to do anything to it. it fired up and ran great, presumably just having been finished and not used (it was from a deceased's estate poor chap)...
I just put new shocks on to raise the rear slightly as the ones on it were old and cheap and fitted a front mudguard.
Oh, it's a 1972 YR5 (350) btw.
I like that a lot, you still have this I take it.
Comes in handy for man juice overflowYou sure that ain't to help your old bones?
Spare oil !
What ratio are you mixing at? 1:1? 
They are tiny bottles, and close up, not far awaySpare oil !
only 150ml each 33:1 mix 
They are tiny bottles, and close up, not far away
150ml x 33 = 4,950ml
4,950ml x 4 bottles = 19,800ml (19.8 litres)
19.8 litres = 4.355 Gallons
Seems fair enough. Carry on.
I was thinking 4 glass Demijohns maybe
