The Bar

So I bought a job lot of DTR parts and this carb came with it. It appears to have some kind of auto choke system on it. I've no idea what it is from but don't need it so want to list on this online auction site I've heard of Or if anyone on here needs it, make me a token offer and you can have it.

I just had a PM from some one called Enginelor saying this *Bikertruelove.com* is established for local biker singles to get together and find their partners.If you are still a single biker,that must be a right place for you to find your right person! Any one else had it?

hi im in the middle of putting a scottoiler on my new xj6s ,when ive lifted the tank up just behind the airbox, chainside there are two black rubber pipes with stoppers in the ends, one of the pies has got a red mark on the end, does anyone know which one im supposed to attach the vacuum pipe from the scottoiler to. thanks.

Hi Guys, Could someone help me with the settings of the Yamaha Alarm & Immobilizer settings? The alarm keeps arming itself which makes working on the bike difficult. I know there is a "Service mode", but I don't know how to set it. The user manual is no help either. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Regards

After all the moaning my clutch lever, alarm, clutch cable have come. So I'm going to have a bash at fitting them. Wish me luck!

I don't know if anyone else has come across anywhere that does this or has any advice in general but here goes. I'm building a DT125R up from the ground. I've got almost all parts now and will be starting the build as soon as my logbook for the frame comes through. I've bought full new plastic set with new sticker kit. The sticker kit doesnt include the stickers for the tank that matches/meets the ones on the rad scoops. I'm going to be re spraying the tank and will want new stickers. Does anyone know what my best line of action is? Is there anywhere that would be able to get the stickers. I'll say, I have yet to try yamaha as i think they only would have part …

I took my bike in for a chain and sprocket set change but when i went to pick the bike up it would not start! i left it with the garage and they said the CDI unit and generator etc was not giving any output, thus leaving me no choice but for them to send away the units for repair (something about re-wiring the generator/coil?) they said this happens on these machines ie: the units can just fail. It will be costing me £175 to get repaired has anyone else suffered from this on these bikes? Also i had done the "re-wire" from the speedometer to de-restrict it would that have caused the trouble? Any ideas/infomation would be much appreciated thank you

I live in a big old house which has been converted into three flats. I have been keeping my bike in the hallway but I asked my neighbours beforehand and they were fully understanding and had no problems at all with it. I've got home today and I've got a letter from the landlord wanting to speak to me about it, I know it's a fire hazard etc. I'm gutted now I'm going to have to keep it outside chained to a metal fence. It's going to be a sought after target for bike thieves.

Well as the title suggests, I am thinking of upgrading from my 1yr old XJ6 to an FZ8, as my local dealer are offering a pretty competitive deal and on 0% finance again. Wondered who has an FZ8 and if they can be honest about the good bits and bad bits. (I have also booked a test ride for 3 weeks time) just wanted others opinions too. Cheers in advance

What do you guys think about this? I've got a friend who's done this in the past to a yzf750. How easy is it, and what do you'll think to the body panel conversion? I'm considering it...

hello everyone, my names jack, id just like to know if anyone might know what the problem is with me clutch, i dismantled my whole bike so i could respray the frame and what knot, after i rebuilt the whole thing, everything seems to be working fine except for the clutch. it wont engage which means i cant get any gears, it just stalles every time and jurks forward, you know, the usual stuff. All of the plates are fine and free and i can see the clutch lever and arm moving on the left side of the engine but the rod doesnt seem to be, could anyone help me out a little? thanks to any advice you may give me also the bike had been standing a little while when i was respraying i…

Morning ive got a dt 125 trenere its a Dakar rally rep I believe there quite rare has anybody got any info on these bikes or maybe got one as im trying to put her back on the road ?.

Bang smack in the middle of a very dodgy area my clutch cable snapped and I had to push my bike home, I swear I thought I was going to get my bike jacked! I know it seems like I'm winging every two minutes about bullshit but......... Do you think I could replace the cable myself or is it a difficult job? I really want to have a crack myself but don't have a clue or know what to expect.

Previously had a few bikes nicked so thought ide ask some advice bout security on a little DT125r, im thinking over night locked up with screaming alarm and chained to a wall mount. not too sure tho what brands to go for or any places to get a decent deal. brought a Xena screaming alarm prevously, but turned out to be a bit crap as one night some **** picked the bike up and walked off with it presumably. it was also chained with a squire chain, only a cheapish one but found that with a link cut. any ideas would be much appretiatedQQ

Hi ... I've go a problem with what I think are the 1st 2 cylinders of my bike, they are either over fueling or not getting proper spark to burn the fuel properly. I believe my carbs are functioning properly so I am thinking it maybe an electrical issue .The middle and left spark plugs are very wet with fuel, the right plug seems to be burning very clean. Almost since new, once in a whlie I would have a starting issue and would have to fiddle with the wiring harness near where it goes from the steering column to the engine . Could this be where my problem could be or is there another electrical spot I should be checking out .. ?

As a new rider I have realised over the past few weeks just how dangerous the wind can be. I've been nearly blown over on my bike more than once now. I can't believe how bad it is, and to be honest it proper made my heart race. Today I was doing about 50 and I nearly got clean blown over by the wind, some scary shit.

hi guys, new to this forum and this is my first post and i really hope you can help with my problem. i've just purchased a 2000 dtr125 as a project, it had been converted to off road use by the previous owner who obviously didnt have a clue what he was doing! and now it has no spark and wont fire, the ignition and kill switch are both missing at the moment, so any help with what the problem could be will be much appreciated :spin2: thanks

Bill Dixon stunting on an r6, iv not seen anything like this before:

I was going to use some Quicksilver Power Tune to clean out the carburetor; the first step is to remove the air filter. Which would be easy - if I knew where it was. I bought the bike used and have no manual. Where is the air filter, how do I remove it, and what tools do I need? Thanks!
