4 frigging hours - that's how long! 10 minutes to adjust the chain and check the tension along its whole cycle, the rest of the time drilling the bolt holding the stabilising bar out because the bastard thing sheared off and was rusted into the main casing! And now the wife has gone out to work so I have little ones to look after. No ride for me then! Bet it pisses down tomorrow!

I'm a new rider so this is a whole new level for me. I've watched a few filtering tips and guides on youtube (by sensible riders) and have been attempting on stationary traffic - when necessary and safe - to get to the front of the lights. Two months on and I've managed to clip two wing mirrors, latest being just last week. The second time it happened, I knew it was too narrow but I had committed so I ended up squeezing through only to fail miserably. Both times I pulled up on to the side of the road and apologised, they were both women drivers and after checking there were no serious damage we parted ways. I guess I've been lucky so far to not have any claims made a…

I have a 2004 model silver R6 that was registered in Jan 05. I have had a high level Micron Exhaust put on, Micro Indicators, Rea Seat Cowl, Tail Tidy, R6 Heel Plates. The bike has only done 450 miles and in showroom condition as it has been garaged. I have all of the original bits to go with it too. I also have a private plate on it that I am thinking of selling separately – R6 0ABE which reads R6 BABE. Anyone know roughly how much I could sell them for? Haven’t ridden the bike in 3 months and don’t want it to rot in the garage. Cheers

Been having few starter motor issues recently. While an auto-spark friend tries to repair my starter, I phoned my local Honda agent to price a replacement. I nearly choked when I was quoted £615+vat = £738 !!! Needless to say I passed. That's a mental price.
