Yamaha Garage Girl Story

Alright, there's something a little unnerving about a few scenes in this but the message is nice. A homosexual looking father and his attractive daughter almost end up screwing after working on their brand new SR400 together after it fails to start. Nice sentiment, if the execution is a little... odd.

I got me some books...

And I can't read a word of Japanese. But they're fun anyway. Ordered from Amazon Japan.

A Microfiche! I've already tracked a coupel down, but It can't hurt to have a physical copy...

It's interesting to see how visual the Japanese guides are compared to our Haynes or Clymer...

Although I'm missing out on a wealth of information by not speaking Japanese I still think they're worth taking a look at. I can't have enough photos when I'm pulling stuff to bits. The first book in the pic would be the most useful - mostly about engine based things and performance hot ups. The second cover would be the least useful as it shows really basic things like adjusting brake cables and so forth.

Er...

... That's dedication.

Happy Birthday To Me!

I got an SR for my birthday!



A mini champs die cast model. Not a bad little replica. Looks like it's got an XT engine instead of the SR, but it's got lots of great details about it - fuel lines, brake lines, carbs etc. I've never been a die-hard die-cast fan but to have one of the humble SR is quite neat.
