    I'm looking to buy a GoPro to mount onto my helmet once I get my 07 DT on the road, but I'm a bit thick when it comes to this camera. I've been looking online and they're all different prices, I've seen the Hero 3 and have decided to get it. What is the best model of the Hero 3 to buy, and what mounts do I need to connect it to my helmet? Rather not use adhesive stuff, don't want sticky sh*t on my new Arioh helmet, would a suction cup be strong enough? Sorry if I'm being a bit thick but this bit of equipment makes me all confuzzled. Thanks - Aaron

    I recently bought a bike and questioned the bloke about the plate, he reckons the plate is legal but says I can have the original if I want it. Anyway completely forgot the original plate and so now I'm wondering if it is legal or not, looks so much tidier than the standard size plate so if it's legal I'll be happy. Also, will being on L plates mean I can only have a full size number plate?

    Ok so if you saw my intro post you will know I'm brand new to this exciting world of bikes! I could do with some suggestions as to what to use to stop scum liberating my new bike! I'm guessing the previous person in my house was a biker as there is some sort of ground anchor in the garage floor so what I need is something for securing it at home in the garage and something for when I'm out and about and at work please. Go! ;-) Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk

    As some of you know I picked up a couple of Suzuki Bandit GSF400s from my local bike dealer that had been left or abandoned by the previous owner, I got them home got one running and flogged on the other one as it was a complete basket case, so finally got it finished a couple of days ago and decided to take it for an MOT back at the shop, long story short a slight tapping became a rattle and then as I pulled over to see what was going on the thing just stopped dead about a mile from home, got it back to the garage to find it's dropped a bloody valve and I have 2 broken valve springs, lots of swearing later I have it all apart and am looking for a pair of valve springs an…

I can't recall ever seeing the roads in such dreadful condition
