Is this normal? I know the washers are in there and they are for the thundercat I dont see how they could have came out though :S any ideas?? Cheers

Yeah I know I'll make a topic about anything lol but just gotta share this one with you in case it happens to you too. Last week while putting on my bike jacket I found one of the press stude was not working and on inspection I could see that it had come apart in a place that it shouldnt have. So I wondered what to do yellow pages...google, and then it struck me ...EBAY Yeah with a bit of searching I found someone (a very nice chap called 'jerry baby' who sold special tools which comprised a special punch and an anvil and all manner of studs. After a chat with jerry on the phone he sold me the tools and a small selection of studs for the princely sum of £6.50 …

Hi all. I'm planning on doing my full motorbike test this year, got my theory test in a few weeks. I can't make my mind up wether to do a restricted license or a direct access and was hoping for some advice. A massive part of me wants something a bit quicker than my ybr 125(not silly fast, but with the ability to overtake on A roads for example and do some more 'spirited' b road rides in the sun), but the sensible part thinks, 'stick to it for a another year or 2 and then move on once the restriction ends' (and make the most of the 120+ mpg average). I'm not daft enough to think that I won't end up in hospital at some point because of bikes but I know after passing my ca…

Anyone know what years will convert with a 2006 yz125ttr? I broke the kick start lever and the dealer wants $160...So I'm trying to find a used one. I found a 98' But I'm not sure if it will work... Thanks

Hiya, If all goes to plan the forum will be down over the weekend as we plan to move servers. I'll keep you updated as we progress. Cheers Alex

I genuinely cannot believe it... I have fallen in love with the DT, Thus I'm keeping it! Past few days I've had it out and I've covered... 70.6 miles since the bike was taxed!! I'm incredibly pleased that I took OG's advice and kept sticking with it, I've now mastered the YPVS and it isn't lifting so much now. Today I went for a ride out with a friend who owns an Aprilia RX 125 2010 model that is Dyno proven to be 21.7 hp! The DT murdered it!!! I really enjoyed the ride we had (yes we did play throughout the shire), we stopped off over selsley common in Gloucestershire and had an Ice cream while chatting about the two bikes and both of us agree …

I'm not normally one for sidecars, but this looks awesome. http://breganzane.com/blog//snfl.php

Well just letting you guys know, after much enduring the bike is finally road legal! I want shot of the damn thing now... 4 stroke please!! I love the fact it's been insanely tuned and is rapid as fook but when I have the front wheel lift I want it to be because I made it happen not just because the bike is mental!! Worryingly it still has the standard gearing/sprockets and it tries to lift in 4th as well... I'm thinking maybe an XT or WR next lol great bike if you don't live in an area that is heavily policed but not worth my license! Shall list it over the weekend on ebay I think!! However... I'm making sure my next bike is a Yammy 4 stroke! No…

Ok, Just put in a deposit for a YBR 125 in Silver. All I have is a helmet and Lock & chain. Can someone point me towards some budget or decent gear in the UK

Would anybody have a hard copy of an owners handbook for 2006 FZ1n?

Hello all, I just recently recieved an '81 SR250 in pretty good condition, and have been riding it around and it feels/runs fantastic. In the next few months I would like to do a few things to tweak the look and performance of the bike as well as get rid of any unneeded weight. One such thing I have been looking into are replacing the stock airbox with a breathe and pod filter as illustrated here ; http://www.yurisite.com/photos/motik/project/sr250air.html .... my question though is if anyone has done this for this particular bike and could help me figure out what else I need to do other than "plugging" the filters on; any carb adjustment etc... I'm pretty new to wor…

I recently bought a 1983 Yamaha XS400. I've been looking online to find a maintenance manual, but am not finding any. Does anyone know where I could find this? Thank you so much for your help! cheers, Bramwell

Got my xs250 to restore, most things look good, bit the first thing I've noticed is that the seatpan is quite bad. Anyone know where I might be able to get a non rusty seat pan for a 1980 xs250? Also , would an xs400 seat fit?
