Hi, I'm new to the site and I was wondering if anyone could help me? I have a dt50mx and the front forks seem to be operating incorrectly I think they may be bent therefore was thinking of getting a front end off another/newer bike and preferably get a disc brake rather than the standard drum. I'm wanting to keep the look of the bike as much as possible. Does anyone know if any other front end will fit my bike. The forks I need seem to be impossible to find in good condition thank you in advance for any help

Hi folks, I might be a bit early to say this BUT.............Happy Christmas! Well I hope you lot have been good this year otherwise - well you know the score. All the best to one and all. I would personally like to thank Drewpy for the help he gave me this year with the XJ600.

I need to do my fork seals before my next MOT, one form needs to be replaced, the stanchion is missing some chrome and it's cheaper to get a replacement then just replace the tube. But, the other fork stanchion seems in ok shape, but there is very minor pitting on it, theirs one or two small pits about the size of a grain of sand, would that be a problem and end up ruining the new fork seal or do you think it'd be ok?

Ok folks just a quick idea here. So been meaning to balance the injectors on the FJR since I put it away, finally got round to it and stuck the balance tubes on the little tit things and merrily started to balance it all. Will it f**knig balance out NO! go through the procedure again and reattach all the pipes and make sure the right pipe is on the right tit then check to see if the gauges are working ok still won't frigging work. Finally get round to checking the ends of the rubber pipes that connect to the bike (running out of things to try at this time) find that the rubber is stretched just enough to let air in thus messing with the balance calculations, so chopped 1/…

Am I just unlucky? First was a flit spwhich I had repaired. Second is a slow puncture that can't be found. I don't have time to worry about such things so got a new tyre fitted. The important thing is to get to work and get home. I may have not done the tyre much good riding it to the dealers when flat with the first puncture. Shoukd I carry an emergency canister? Or have I just been unlucky. I'm riding a 50cc Neos 4. Don't laugh - it does the job really well on narrow twisty lanes going to work and back. I'm getting 120 to 125 miles to the gallon, so I have spent more on the puncture and the new tyre than I have on petrol.

there's a def nasty undercurrent of offroad biker youths taking to the roads and causing trouble. look at this in Huyton liverpool http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/fresh-footage-emerges-scrambler-bikers-12145427#ICID=FB-Liv-main

I have recently purchased a new YBR 125. I need to get the 600 mile service done and other services in the future. The dealer I purchased the bike from is 30 miles away, but there is a non franchised service garage about a mile away from me. If OE parts are used and the bike serviced to the correct specs is this valid for the warranty? Cheers Iggy

Someone if trying to sell me a "CB550 cosworth", but I can't actually find any information about them anywhere, the only visual difference to the bike apart from a normal CB550 was that if has "cosworth" cast onto the cylinder head, anyone know anything about these?
