    You've been waiting for them in breathless anticipation, so without further ado here are the 2010 Darwin awards. 8th Place..... In Detroit , a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys. 7th Place....

    Hi Im Jordan , been on here a few months now ! but still fairly new to biking ..... and sad to say it had my fair share of problems ! I've done allot of work myself and after a whole lot of time , money and graft its finally running ( and road legal ) ! However, I think its firing too early , there's a weird noise coming from the engine ( almost like a rattling noise ) this happens stationary and in neutral so im sure its not chain or gear box etc .... also the performance is piss poor ! Its struggles on the slightest of hills ! Iv finally made the decision to give her over to a mechanic to do a service/tune and to try and sort out the "pre-firing". I am new to th…

    Hi, I have a question regarding the 250 US Custom. How do I check the oil level? I know where the filler cap is but I have no idea how to check the oil. I also have no idea how much oil it should have. If I had an instruction book that would be a start! As my name suggests I am a bit green when it comes to bikes and would appreciate any help or advice that I could get on this bike

The letter read: Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had £100 in it, wh…
