well i am sure we have all heard the term daylight robbery! well 10 minutes ago i opened the door to go out and put my lottery on only to find a scooter parked at the bottom of my drive the guy on the pillion was just about to force my steering lock,on seeing me he jumped on the back of the scooter which had no number plate on it and away,i would have caught them but let them get away when they rode the wrong way down a one way street. on the bloody pavement. god my bike must be popular this is the forth time in 18 months. phoned the police they said theres been a few bikes stolen lately so drewps dont leave your bike on the front.

Sky sports is free to some sky, virgin and other cable viewers this weekend. Man City v Everton starting soon.

I love this bike, but it only ran for 3 days after i bought it, and then it started to cut out It would basically feel like I was running out of gas and it would sputter out, but then restart afterwords. Anyways, the last time this happened, it just wouldn't start up again. I checked, and it has spark, it has fuel, and it's sucking in air with a clean filter, so what's my problem? I took a look in the carb and everything is really clean. It turns over and I can hear a little combustion but is just wont run. I did notice while holding the spark wire boot that I got shocked while looking for spark. Maybe an electrical issue? Ignition? Thanks for the help in advance.

ok i know this might sound wierd but i want my bike to back fire flames. it back fires alot now but i want it to spit flames aswell. any suggestions?

hi guys, just wondering if anyone else was at the grampian motorcycle convention on sunday ? what a beautiful day it was, even got to meet guy martin !

Just picked up my 99 Fazer FZS this eveing - all I now need to arrange is getting the restricter kit fitted (damn those politicians ) Any suggestions on where I might get one at a reasonable price that doesnt require me having to sell a body part ? Cheers

hi! have a little problem here with my fzr 400.... just bought it a few weeks ago and thought that i`ll have it just for fun and etc.... but now i want to register it, but i dont have any documents for it... so.. what should i do???

Just re-reading the and thought I would take a look at the Gov. e-petitions site again. For those not in the UK, the great people of Britain can start an on line petition and if it gets enough votes the government debate it. A bit like X factor but with better singing. At the moment more people want "Keep Formula 1 Free To Air in the UK" than "Britain wants referendum to leave EU" The best reading comes from the rejected pile, again a little like the X factor worst singers. http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/16300 http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/16450 http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/16445 http://epetitions.direct.…

I know there has been some discussion about recording rides. Here is an HD camera for £30 or so that can be fitted anywhere (well almost) and if you have a power take off, the battery charged at the same time.

Hiya, Sorry for the inconvenience over the last few days, we've been moving to a new server, the move means that the site is now more scalable and ultimately faster. We've also just updated the forum software, gallery, garage and chat functionality to the latest versions, so please let me know if you notice anything unusual. Hopefully all is fine and there won't be any issues. Well fingers crossed! Alex

Hi guys does anyone no where i can get a throttle cable all three bits to fit a 72 at2 125 thanks

Hey girls and guys. I took delivery of my TZR125 yesterday and am very pleased with it. The bloke I brought it from said it was all ok and would pass MOT with no probs. The only problem we can see is that when your releasing the clutch to go the bike seems to want to die on us unless you put loads of revs in. It's also doing the same thing when turning. It seems to splutter, start losing the will to live and them you have not over rev it to get it going again. Any ideas as to why it is doing this? Thanks
