Hi there, I own a Yamaha Ybr 125 custom and i am planning on selling it Hence why i have another forum about the Logbook. Now the bike was sold to me and i was told by the Hampshire motor cycle centre Southampton that the Mileomiter reads in Km's. It is was registered in 2008. Now when i baught it i was told the 17000 miles were in fact kms and it only had about 11000 on the clock. Please any help would be amasing! Thanks! Joe.

Hello all....... Just sharing this with you all as fellow bikers we never know when we may need help from these guys https://www.justgivi...m/Corrina-Hynes Well what can I say....... It all started with a winning raffle ticket for a trip in a glider, personally that is my worst nightmare as I hate heights and have never flown for the reason that I think only birds should fly and was planning to give it away. After sharing the news with some friends, one bright spark came up with the idea to sponsor me for doing it, so peer pressure it is and the challenge has begun. The glider flight will take place after Christmas/New year a…

A practical example of how the human mind works. Analysis of the above picture can tell us a lot about how different people think. - For young men, it's a picture of a lady with a nice arse but only the most observant will notice that she is crossing a street. - The really observant will notice that she is wearing a thong. - For older men, she appears to be a respectable woman - with a nice ass - on her way to work. - The perverts among them will imagine her naked. - Wiser men will ponder the presence of mind of the photographer to take the shot in the face of such beauty and be grateful that they shared it with humanity. - For half of the women, this is an…

Bought a new (still in the box) 2009 TMAX with no operator's manual (they are ordering me one). How do I get the seat open? I tried moving the key to the seat open position, pushing, pulling, turning, etc. with no luck. What's the trick? The guy that delivered the TMAX by truck opened it right up, but I wasn't paying attention.

Ok so im moving onwards and upwards from the Mighty DT125R! Next up will be a 650 Adventure/Enduro type bike, but my budget isn't fantastic, im looking somewhere around £1200, i could probably stretch to £1500 if it was really worth it. Bikes currently in my list: Yamaha XT660Z Tenere Honda NX650 Dominator BMW F650 Suzuki XF650 Freewind Anyone have any experience of any of these bikes? Important things for me to consider are: 1. Reliability/ease of repair 2. Insurance Group 3. Cost of parts 4. Looks ( well no one wants to be ugly! haha) The Suzuki is by far the prettiest bike, Then the BMW, Honda, and the Yamaha is the…

Hi everyone I've completed my survey and much boring research to come to the conclusion that the biggest issue about riding a motorbike is awareness for bikers. After some money was spent and pain was gained I came up with a light up LED helmet.... Don't worry this is the first phase of prototyping, I just want a general oppinion. I will be making another prototype with another helmet, boots and clothing using similar LED's but with Legal requirements met, such as: rear face lights must be red (brake and rear-dipped lights) & front facing lights must be clear white or halogan yellow (front dipped lights) My question to you is do you think this is a good idea and …
