The Bar

I just bought a 2000 Yamaha Roadstar and the bags were included and so were the frames and bolts and nuts but how does it go on? Anyone have a step by step thing to help me out? Thanks, Randy

i passed my theory today and now i got to think about the practical... basicaly now the way i ride is that i only overtake cars in slow trafic on the left side...... but normally in traffic lights e.t.c i always wait behind other cars, as is i was another car...... i was wondering when i go to the practical exam do i have to ride and when appoching trafic lights e.t.c do i over take cars to the front of the queue or do i just wait behind other cars as is i was another car???? any other tips... im gonna be doing the exam on my 52 plate Yamaha DT125R..... and firstly i need to gain more confidence on the road as i used to offroad terrain and no speedlimits...…

Hi there, I'm Swirlie, new to this board, I've got an '06 R6 that I've had for not quite a year now, been riding for over 3 years total and put close to 40k miles on the odometers in my saddle time. Yep, I ride... ALOT. My bikes have been my main forms of transport as well as my main forms of recreation since I started riding. I'm in Panama City, Florida, US, I was a cop for 6 years, and I just joined the army infantry under the 18x SpecForce pipeline. Nice to meet ya'll! Any other questions? And before anyone asks, no, the bike isn't modded or tricked or anything, it's bone stock, and it's more than enough to go get crazy and have an awesome time on!

This has to be one of the funniest sites online, they are all stories from a guy who works for a design company called deMassi Jones. He makes fun of his co workers and are all true stories. His famous one was the 7 legged spider. The sites been around for a while but he has just updated it with asking to trade his furniture for a new motorbike.

after two days of sorting my carb out,i found out my new sparkplug was a dud. which,makes me think what are all the numbers and letters on the plugs. and why when the plugs look the same.

Just got back from a morning of bike racing at Mabelthorpe, cold, windy and raining, but it didn`t stop these guys and gals having fun !! The track was a little damp in places ! Yep that is a Triumph 3 try riding that on sand !! Look mum........ no brakes !!

hi everyone. would quite like to build a motorcylce trailer so i can transport my DT around without having to call my dad over to pick it up in the van or for when i next breakdown miles from anywere. my dad recently built himself a double-axles trailer using a trailer tent chassis and wheels, box section and checker plate, are there any plans/drawings available for fabricating a single or maybe even double motorcycle trailer? regards Steve

Ok - so now i got me a nice new bike i was wondering what - if anything - i should be doing. Yes ive had "new" bikes before and i am quite capable of looking after them but i have never actually owned a brand new-zero mileage-straight-out-the-showroom bike - so in your opinions - is there anything i should be doing to keep her tickety boo or do i just keep on doin what im doin? Cheers! Goff (not too proud to ask for help )

Morning all I've just got rid of my Ducati and bought an R6. Thought I'd pop in and say a quick hello.

Hello all , Anyone out there know of an RD500LC layed up anywhere ? Really just need the engine and wiring loom , but , if there's a basket-case i would be interested . Mat

I had to share this with everyone - i managed to get out on my bike for the first time this year for a proper blhaat! At last, the weather is looking better and summer is creeping in slowly, but surely! Did any one else manage to make the most of the sun today? I nearly sold my bike two weeks ago cos i was soooo fed up with the snow and winter chill - so today has been a God send...and my bike is off teh market! yippee! Happy riding all!

Hi guys and girls My name is Morten and I`m from Norway. I work as a signmaker and I`m 39 years old. Just bought myself a -71 Yamaha DT1f who I want to restore. I dont have any other bikes but I have a restored -78 Gilera Trial moped . Looking forward to enter the Yamaha world

picked up my cbf125 yesterday as my old cg125 workbike with over 50,000 miles on it needs to much work to keep on the road, so much better than the cg fills bigger than it is and overall a nice bike hope to get fz600 on road this year

Alright guys and gals. Any one got any recommendations on which double bubble looks best for the 08 R6? I need to change my stock one, and cant decide which to plump for? Looking at the Puig, seems good but can only get one image. What have the rest of you guys got? Cheers Nick
