A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, 'You know what? 'You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you stayed right here. When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what?' 'What dear?' she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth. 'I think you're bad luck... Get …

"Mira engineers outfitted a Yamaha Tenere and a Triumph Sprint with the safety systems so they could be tried out on a test track. The systems include laser scanners, haptic handles and gloves, a vibrating seat, lights, smart helmet-cameras and radar as well as a pannier full of the electronics that analyse data gathered by the sensors and pump out warnings." http://www.bbc.co.uk...nology-12266406 Interesting read imo.

I have developed a tight spot on the chain, and am looking to replace it. The bike is a 2000 R6. Any recommendations as to what to get? Is an "X" ring advantageous over an "O" ring for example? I have not really got a clue what to go for. Thank you in adavance for your help. Neil

Hi just a small quirey, Looking to upgrade from my YBR125, i want i big'ish bike around 600cc and i have seen that honda have released a new modle this month the NC700X, its basicaly got a honda jazz engine cut in half in it and will only rev to 6500rpm at the start of the redline its claimed that its 0-75mph is faster than the cbf600 aswell, the suprising thing is it will do a stagering 78.8 to the gallon (4.55L), just wanting to know if yamaha have anything thats MPG is close to that which isnt a small capacity bike, i would prefere to upgrade to another yam as my YBR is so bloody reliable, and i havnt had much experiance with honda bikes however i am aware that t…

hey, Does anyone know where I can find detailed info about the MOT for bikes in the UK? Ideally some sort of checklist. cheers!

Bike has now been in for its mot and a few repairs for over a week now, (well a bit of TLC from the mechanic on the repair side) he had it running nice and sweet gave it its MOT done a few other bits and bobs then what do ya know the damn bitch started running rough and then wouldnt start (Grrrrrrr) so didnt get it back for the weekend. Hoping to get it back on Monday then i wont have to get on that plaque carring bus in the morning with all the peeps coughing all over the place.... Ride safe ALL

apparently their looking at removing the MOT test for bike's over 30 years old http://www.dft.gov.uk/classic-mot/motorbikes/

I managed to complete my CBT yesterday and the trike passed its MOT today, so it's been a good week even if I did have to drive to Scotland and back for work. I might think about getting a cheap 125 so that I can practice for the full test on L plates, but not sure what to get. Any advice on good learners bikes. Yamaha, of course. ;-)

Would worn pegs be an MOT fail ?
