sure ly i can set the idle and co ,but that just doesnt change one thing about my bike and that the fact that its a lemon.and if you or any of your mate on here want to take it for a ride or better still have a go at fixing it so it suddenly has bottom end stops stalling use reasonable amounts of fuel let me know,cause to be frank if yamaha after having it for 6 weeks cant get it right who can??can you?? i have never taken the piss out of anyone here but frankly to post such a rude reply doesnt say much about yourself in general .And who is andrew newey anyway i never mentioned him. your attitude frankly sux, your language sux and they way you reply to some also sux.so if i understand well here you can say what you like and the other can shut the **** up. perhaps you should put this on as your site moto....well done ...nice....

I don't act like this with any other forum members, it should not be the way I should be talking to people, but hey hang on a minute there is a limit to what anyone can put up with, I have seen, read and put up with more than can be deemed plausible from you. Like AJT660 told you its all down to the way you have come here and bragged about yourself.

As for me I am the owner of the website and forum and I should treat everyone nicely, it's true. But just a minute, why should I? After all I am just a human being, owning the forum does not make me special so.... just for a minute forget the fact that I do own the place and let me tell you, if I pinch myself I do feel it and that means I am human like everyone else. At the same time I know I am not a push over, and why should I let anyone breach my peace and irrupt into my private life and bother me "after hours" like you did. The forum does not know (and I think it's time it does know) that you had the nerve to contact me privately by msn, one evening, to bore the pants off me with your rants about your bike to the point where I had to put your msn contact on ignore.

Additionally, the forum does not know the content of the private messages exchanged between you, Kev and myself in trying to genuinely help you with your issues before we lost our patience with you.

Every bit of information and help we have given you has not been received with gratification from you just because you couldn't sort it out, instead of thanking us for our time and dedication, all you could do is come back with more complaints about your bike and unhappiness with it and us.

All I can do from my side is to be human and say a big Sorry to you for voicing my frustration openly, but we did try to help you, not just me but a whole bunch of us and you have not appreciated it.

Now you are offering someone to come and sort your bike with all expenses paid? The thought of watching paint drying is more appealing to me, to be honest. I can't speak for Kev but since he is already in Australia, and if he is willing to help you I suggest you get into one of your racing truck (all good formula racing teams should have one) and take your bike from Bovral City to Brisbane to visit Kev and see if he is still willing to help you and demonstrate that it can be fixed. But as I've said he might not be in the spirit.

Thank you and once again sorry for my language. Now please leave us in peace or I am going to have to really show you who's boss and silence you in the forum permanently.
