Hi everyone.
I’ve been meaning to join for a while, & as I’ve had my Bimota (YB11) for @ 20 years, it’s long overdue! |

Yes....potentially the longest lurker yet....all must be well though if you've been an owner for 20 years and not had to ask any questions....I have the YB11 spare parts manuals and Workshop Manual on pdf I can email for free.....if the YB11 is now in need of a service |

I just checked the reg year, & it’s only 18 years old, so I’m not so tardy after all!
Many thanks for the offer of the manuals, but I think I’ve got them, plus the Haynes YZF 1000. It’s tucked up in the garage this year as I thought I’d get some use out of my S1000rr (I’ve got a Harley FXDC, a GS1000 based Moto Martin, & a little TS250 too), but it’s been pretty trouble free so far. It’s all standard apart from a Maxton shock. The only thing I need to sort out for next year is the dreaded fork seals; I’ve been using the imperial size, which seem to last a few years. |

A couple of people on here have the correct seals for the YB11 51mm forks,,,,the Ex chairman of the Bimota Enthusiasts Club had some specially made a few years ago and some are still drifting around... |

Thanks for letting me know. It would be great if I could buy a pair. |
