The Bar

.....and I'm talking classic rock....then come over and sign up on my new forum.....MaximumRock! The url is www.maximumrock.net Quite a few bikers from some of the other forums are coming over as well!

Should have put this up a couple of weeks ago but better late than never. My bike was leaking fuel from the LH carb, it was damp and a little wiffy (no puns) Well 2 strokes being what they are, like the wife not liking neglect, it bit me. Flooded out massively, almost had me walking home. Anyway TDR's being what they are, (a big motor stuffed in a 125 frame) its a bit tight so off comes the offending carb. Open her up clean out the carb, nothing visible but there was dirt on the cloth i cleaned it with. Whacks it all back together and........... nothing. Std options first.... Change plugs, old ones were sparking but you never know. Changed fuel, it had run…

My ignition barrel is wearing out, it keeps getting stuck in the locked position, one day it's just gonna get stuck like that, it needs to be replaced. I'm wondering how much it'll cost, anyone else had there's replaced? The bikes a YBR Custom if that helps. I was going to do it myself like I do everything else, turns out they use fucking shear bolts to hold them in.

My name is Adam, 23, from Congleton, Cheshire, England. I came across this site while looking for info for my latest purchase.... An 85 FZR 400! Picked her up thismorning from some dude who just wanted her gone... so I offered him £40 and he took it!!! (Idiot) lol So now I have another project I ride a CBR 600 F2 as my daily, and I also have a GSXR 750 Y as my weekend toy.... Ride safe guys and gals....

pc now repaired so back up and running but soz pete stil no bike i am cruising in a clapped out astra 1994 1700 dieselwhich leaks two gallons of oil a week. and soz again pete i am getting a escort xr3i cabriolet in the next few weeks i just could not resist they just look so good with the rs turbo body kit and funny thing is it is £300 cheaper to insure than the astra hopefully my old dear will not come here and try embarrasing me again

been away a while sold my rxs 100 it just was a money pit unfortunatley. now i have an extra money pit. yamaha neos 100. needs some bits and piecese again. so i will probably be here for a while again.

So was speaking to one of my aunties borthers at the weekend, and as per got onto talking about bikes. was sayign that i had an sv but was looking for something else, and turns out he's selling a Thundercat! went and had a look at it and its clean, has service history and would get taxed and tested prior to sale. asking for 1400, and the insurance is less than my SV, despite the jump in horsepower, guessing because of the "Sport Touring" classification? can mind what year is it, only had a quick look - going back for a proper look and test this weekend. whats your thoughts on this bike?

Hello everyone, Ive been looking for new custom mirrors something abit different from the regular ones, Only ones ive found looked like this, But there off some dodgy website and i was hoping someone might know anywhere in the UK that sells something like these. Thanks alot, Scott http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mzDyNWohqjY/TDbpn8HsnTI/AAAAAAAAAC8/T5tSgSK2Yms/S350/cabon1.jpg&imgrefurl=http://yzfr125-ray.blogspot.com/&usg=__z13VfNtJ5yEHnYAkhWJpV8omHis=&h=262&w=350&sz=22&hl=en&start=13&zoom=1&tbnid=uRI5vifpY2PFJM:&tbnh=116&tbnw=155&ei=-x2PTbisJ8eM4Qbl3p3XCw&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dyzf%2B…

Hey all.... Im currently in California at the moment training for work. the weather here is seriously hot.... but my god its like biking heaven. the locals here say that the winter weather is like our summer but with no rain. The bikes out here are something else... mainly all I've seen are tractors but they are all immaculate. few sports bikes but not much. Moral of the story.... mother nature is ripping us off in Ireland & the UK.

can anyone tell me if i remove the oil cooler from my xj600 would it be ok to run without ?????

Im a 44yr old long haired lout just finding my way back onto bikes, family having now grown up and owning 2 bikes himself both Yamaha's !!! well u have to teach them as best u can. So we have a garage full of bikes from a ZX9R to a little FS1se chop (please dont laugh) and even room for my GPZ750 chop and a GS750 chop in bits (my fault honest gov) that needs an engine overhaul - not my fault this time.

Hi, I am very much into cars, never been into bikes. But I've been bitten... I wish to get an unrestricted license & buy a used Yamaha R6. I want to do this yesterday but think it'd be best to wait until early next year to go for the test, get the bike etc. Would I be correct in saying I can go for direct access, do the test in a couple of days (from scratch) and buy the bike... All comments welcome - good or bad. I'm 27, never ridden before :twisted:

Ponder on these imponderables for a minute:- 1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? 2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes? 3. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery? 4. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled? 5. If love is blind, why issexy lingerie so popular? 6. Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker? 7. When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say? 8. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a racing car not called a racist? 9. Why are a wise man and a…
