Add to the fact that that our previous sponsors have all gone because the whole Yamaha XT bike range has been discontinued, so the availability of aftermarket parts has dried out. All the aftermarket people are concentrating their research on current popular models like the MT-09 / MT-10 which are selling a lot.
Finally the member's voluntary support to maintain the forum costs have also all dried out and it is now 2 years this has been run in the red.
