Anyone used one ? any good and can you get them in Uk http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Portable-Motorcycle-Jack-Stand-Easy-Chain-Maintenance-/260936456274?_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D5%26po%3

Hi Guys, My '89 DT125R has been standing for about 4 years before I got it. I have cleaned the carb fully and also cleaned the air filter. There is a bolt which wont come out on my DEP exhaust end so cant check whether the exhaust is coked up. Is it worth getting some de-coke solution to try and clean her out a bit, atm she doesn't run very well past 7k rpm and im thinking maybe she all gummed up insdie (oo-err). If they are worth trying can someone recommend a good de-coking solution to try? Is this stuff any good? :http://www.ecotek.eu/PowerBoost.htm Cheers in advance

Hi, I have recently aquired a 2000 xj600s diversion which does not have any illumination to the dash area for the speedo and tacho. All other bulbs are working ie, headlight, indicators etc. What type of bulb do i need, how many, and are they easy to replace. Is it likely its a bulb or a fuse which may be the cause? Many Thanks Marc

hi, i have a YBR125 '61' and have bought the official Yamaha LED blinkers - http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/accessories/?productCode=YBR125&redirect=false - installed them as it shows.. indicator with the resistor in parallel with it and they supply 2 10ohm resistors, i have installed front and rears of these and they flash too fast and are illegal at the speed they flash. does anyone know of any ways to sort out the speed of flashing without installing a new relay? i have tried installing more resistors but still doesnt seem to help. the original bulb indicators were 10w/12v and my battery is 12v. any advice will be much appreciated. thanks. Oli.

Hi all, Jw if anyone else on here also owned a 1987 dt125. I ask as I'm after some up close pictured, ie both sides, front and back as I want to see ways missing of mine, can anyone help???? Cheers

Now then, here's a problem I am really stuck on. My 2002 xjr was Ok one day but the next started to run very rough. I checked the plugs and I found that No. 1 plug was black with carbon so I changed the plug but this did not make any difference. I put a new set of plug caps on. Again no difference. The spark wasn't bad but there was the possibility of a damaged HT lead. However the HT's from the coil are fixed I so couldn't just change them and had to buy a new coil. Hmm, lovely spark but still no difference. OK, strip the carbs and have a look. HORROR!! No1 carb slide had a big burn hole in the back - the air filter side, not cylinder side, so I removed the car…

Hi all, jw if anyone had a repair manual for an 87 dt 125 that they could email me a cop of ???? Cheers

I have a 2009 WR450F and looking at lighting kits. There are two I can find, the Dakar and the Baja Designs. Do you know of others and if not which of these two truly make the bike more real world street worthy?

Hi all, I'll about to start using my shiny new (8 year old) TTR around town, but I'm more than a litle concerned that one only needs to unscrew the cap from the plastic tank, if they wanted to siphon off some fuel. So my question is this: Is it possible to lock a TTR tank? I could of course mod something done on another bike, mod my own fuel cap, or buy a locking fuel cap outright. I haven't yet found one online, and so to the forum I have flown (as they say). Cheers

Hi there, i am new to the forum, and i have a problem with my yamaha tzr50 2004. My bike has been running badly ever since i perchaced it and i have been trying to track down the problem for weeks in the end i took of the flywheel cover and i cheked the timing with a flash light and it was stuck at 24 degrees. I think this is too far advanced and that it is meant to change when the bike is revved up. Aslo the rev counter jumps around all the time so i think that it is the cdi that is broken. Also the stator is 12v and has 12 coils instead of the usual 6 on most of the am6 engines. could anyone suggest what to do? many thanks Declan

Hi all, I'm after some advice with getting a Cat C write off back on the road. It's a YBR 125 custom, first bike, bought second hand for about £1400. I had a *very* minor accident a few months back. Was parked on the road and a big SUV backed into the bike, knocking it into another bike. The damage to mine looked very minimal (dented the instrument panel I'd only recently replaced(!), a broken indicator light, some minor scratches). The other bike was a lot worse off, and when I found the bike neither driver was there so I reported it to my insurer and the police to cover my back... a week later the car driver got in touch, was unreservedly apologetic and said his thi…
