    Afternoon folks, After doing the whole fast car thing I've decided to give the whole two wheel malarky a try as well! I'm yet to take my test but I've bought a 1999 R6 so thought I'd sign up as these places tend to be really handy when your a bit stuck. Thanks folks and look forward to using this forum!

    ....a good access to some great off-roading areas yesterday. I went out for a spin with Road Rash from Trail Pilgrim.com...we found a good way into an area where he used to ride back in the 80's & that I knew of for quite awhile. Goat Mtn. has always been a good area for some off-road action ever since I 1st heard of it.....not to mention some great views As you can see, we ran into a little snow on the way up..... It was pretty chilly, especially in the shady areas.....but actually warmer than the past few days have been around here. We found plenty of evidence that this area is still alive & well for off-road use......Trails everywhe…

    ...the '06 R6 is so popular with most people ..... Seems like it'll be a worthy adversary for the other 600's this year... Judging by the way Jason DiSalvo is exiting this turn @ the Laguna test recently.

    Hi Guys, Having just picked up my new 05 R6 last Thursday, I was just wondering what sort of maintenance checks I should be doing and how often should I do them? Please can anyone give me like a to-do-list so I can get into a routine of doing it. Also, I'm trying to take off those annoying stickers on my tank, been slowly scratching it out every now and then and it's still stuck on like a b&5tard. I heard the hair dryer works like treat but me living in on 5th floor in a block of flat at the mement, I can't get a long enough extension to to bring the dryer outside. I also heard some warm water with some baby shampoo works too, but have to scrub at it for a bi…

    I need to get some leathers soon, I'm just wearing textile pants and jacket at the moment, they are good, do the job and keeps me dry when I'm cummuting to work everyday on my 05 R6. Anyway, I was wondering what leathers do you guys wear? I had my sight set on some Alpinestars 1pz but then I saw some Arlen Ness ones which where cheaper and looks more protective (and also I love that dragon logo on them!). I'm also not too sure whether to get a 1pz suit or 2pz? 1pz is probably more protective but 2pz is more practical and I would use them for work too. If I got 1pz, I wouldn't feel right going to work with them and idiots on the road will always try and race you…

    I haven't experience one of these, touch wood that I won't and I really don't want one! I've been reading about them and I was wondering if any of you guys have experienced one and how did you deal with it? Here's a good read about them from joe250.com: I was just wondering, wouldn't applying the back brake help during a tankslap?

    Hi, im a relative newb, ive been riding for over a year now, and have recently got an SR125 SE. Ive had to change the engine for a newer one, as it decided to drop one of its valves in to the barel. The Newer engine is off of a 97 bike, and it is so far running well (ish). There is one problem though, when I come off the throtle in any gear above 3rd, the power will go compleatly, and the engine dies (as in no fuel being combusted), or when I give her a little throtle, she will sometimes become very laboured in reving, and will almost stall, or die (in neutral). It only seems to hapen when the engine is warm/hot. I think it could be the carb, or an air leak in to…

  19. Hi Guys, I'm actually from US and registered here on the forums to get some advice and help. I recently just bought an 06 r6 blue and have been in love with the white/red color combo. Now I want to convert my bike into that color combo. Do you think it'll be cheaper for a paint body shop to replica such a color or would it be smart of me to just buy all the parts from UK. If anyone is selling please advice. I would really appreciate the help and info. Thanks Oz

    Hi all. I am a newbie into the biking world at 25. I am looking at getting an XT125R Brand new with the view that I may have it a year before taking my test. I know nothing of bikes currently so buying new will give me the ultimate peace of mind. Are there any owners of the XT125R on here. Should I post in the relevant bike section for owners views. Thanks in advance.
