Good luck!  ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it?s worth. |

Basically if your a yamaha technician u get the opportunity to enter a thing called the "Yamaha technicians guild", every year yamaha hold the grande prix to try and find the best technicians in the world.
First round which i have already done is uk only and is basically a multiple choice exam asking u questions on technical specs, diagnosing problems etc, and doing various things to a timetable yamaha set (services, changing bits etc)
The second round is much of the same but it gets alot harder.
Then your off to europe for the european finals, in which the top guys and girls from all over europe compete to be the best, again more exams but also alot of practical.
then the world final.... now this i dont know much about, i know about the other rounds because the guy who has/is training me ranked third in europe last year but didnt go further because he didnt wanna leave his family at xmas
there are prizes all the way along from shirts to bikes, winner of the european stage gets a brand new xt660r and i think the winner overall gets a bike of his/her choice
as this is only the first time i have entered this im not too sure on the specifics..ill try and find out ____________________ Bikes owned :- 2001 nsr125, 1999 zx6r, 2006 yzf-r1, 2009 xmax 250, 2012 yzf-r1, 2015 MT-07
