Hi, I'm probably super daft for whatever I've done to the bike, I swapped out the bulbs for LED's after the bike fell and broke the originals, now the indicators turn on and blink at the right speed, but both sides do so simultaneously, regardless of what side I flick them onto. I've attempted to look for an answer but it all seems far too technical for my smooth brain and I need someone to dumb it down caveman style. I've seen some people saying it needs a relay? or other electronic part? Not entirely sure. Any help would be appreciated

has anyone got the linkage that goes from the rear of the brake pedal to the brake switch spring on a 250/400 MX.

I bought a Dragstar 1100 Trike which I've put a lot of time and money into but I get a massive tank slapper at low speed. Pulling away is fine if I'm getting up speed and slowing down is fine until I get below 15mph then I have to grip tight which stops the slapping. When cornering at any speed I get a kind of scraping, grinding sound. I'm mechanically minded engine and electrical wise but this has me beat. The seals on the forks are good, I've had the tyres off the rear end and checked, balanced up and re valved, they're new tyres. The front tyres not that old and in good shape. There's no play in the steering at all and everything is tight. Any ideas on what could…

I recently bought a pair of Virago inlet rubbers which look identical to each other to my eyes. One has the markings 'A and 1' on it, the other has 'B and 2'. Does it matter which one is fitted to the forward cylinder head, and which one to the rear cylinder head? Can someone advise please? Ian

After I've pressed down the choke lever on my YM2C (like the YDS5) and then released the pressure on the lever to start the bike, the plunger on the right hand card drops down slightly and the bike won't start. It will only start when both plungers are jammed up fully. What is it that holds both plungers fully up? Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Hope someone can help me with this. I live in Turkey and the local Yamaha dealer/service agents aren't any help. I've had the XMax scooter from new (2019) and never had the coolant replaced. I had a split pipe in the coolant system at its join with the reserve tank, resulting in the reserve tank emptying itself. I've fixed the pipe, but the coolant that dripped out was an orange colour. Yamalude coolant appears to be blue coloured, so I'm not sure what type to top it up with. Anyone with any idea what coolant I should use? Any info appreciated. I don't really want to flush the system and refill, but will if needed.

Hi All. I can't find any reference to this issue but my xv has got a very wobbly gear lever.. not at the gear shaft but the pivot. It looks like some kind of bushing or a flat rubber o ring is missing but I cannot find any part number or even a diagram that might assist me... https://postimg.cc/jLx08YjX

Hi, Anyone know a good place to get pdfs of the workshop manauls? My local Yamaha dealer only could sell me the paper book, for $95. He said he had the pdf and checked with management and they said they couldn't sell it. Thanks!

Good evening y'all! Got quick question about 125's back rest. Does one exist somewhere on the market? Thanks in advance Yours sincerely Newbie RaySin 🫡

Good evening y'all... It's been a while since my last post here, and, I feel guilty... (probably not) I have been through some changes in my life recently, getting redundant from my job, starting new job, but, what's most important - now I HAVE TO RIDE DAILY!!! Can't put it in words how it feels to wake up at 4AM to get ready for work, get geared up, push her out the gate, start her up and..... There is nothing... Just me and her in the dark, no traffic most of the times... It's our time where we can learn about each other so much... So far I have learned to adjust chain slack, changing few bits here and there... I feel like we are starting to gro…

Hi guys, I need recommendations for crash bobbins for a Gen1 Hayabusa. Something preferably both pretty and most of all useful! Ideally from personal experience, we all know how some of these 3rd party items look good, but work crap..! lol Cheers in advance & all that...

I recently got a 2009 Yamaha FZ6R. It's missing a starter Idler, which I finally found whilst taking the bike apart trying to diagnose why it wouldn't start. I have access to parts from a 2006 R6. So my question is, are the parts Compatible? The part numbers, are all the same except for the first 2 digits, but both parts look identical from a image perspective. Does anyone know if these bikes are compatible though? The 2009 Idler part number is 20S-15512-00, but the R6 part number I want to see if it will fit is 2C0-15512-00... Is there a big difference between 20S and 2C0??? Or will it work? I'm on a budget so if I am able to use the 2C0 on my FZ6R I will be happy savin…

Dear all, could yo please help me. Im trying to register an imported DT. its 1979 model, i have a NOVA for teh bike, it wasnt previously registered in NZ. Bit fo a headache with DVLA forms etc

Good day to y'all. I have a problem. Recently my drag star has fallen ill and won't start up. Battery went flat, got it recharged, tried again... It seems to be turning over, however even with choke opened it seems to be suffocating and cuts off. Managed to get it started at some point and accelerated a bit to keep it revving a bit higher and alive but as soon as released the gas it stalled again. Any ideas what's going on? Bike hasn't moved in last two months, before all was fine. Is it just me needing new battery or problem is a lot deeper? Thanks in advance RaySin

Does anyone know where flasher unit is for indicators, doing my head in also any links to a manual for one,grey import

Good evening, everyone. As I sit and look through window, seeing all the frost and snow coming down the sky, I started questioning myself... 1) where the heck do I get proper owners manual for my new lady? (I have found some PDF files online, but looking for something more like Haynes manuals, Amazon failed miserably to provide me with one) 2) Regarding chain - how do you know when it's too dry and she needs a bit of lubrication before we have some fun? 3) Feeding - when I feed her, will she say when it's enough? (When tank is full, will the pump stop like it does with cars, or it's more like spoon feeding and I have to keep an eye on her so she…
