Can anyone help me? I have a burned out low beam on my 1974 DT250. Is there anyway to replce bulb or find a replacement? Thanks.

Guys/Girls, i need some help here... I installed 4 LED turnsignal indicators, and a kellermann variable load relais, which is suited for use with LED signals. I connected the 2 back LED indicators, and the front ones still original bulbs. everything works fine. Now connected up the front LED's: indicators are steady (left or right). If i hook up the original bulb together with the LED: works fine. So looks as if still the load is wrong, but all the reviews i see for this relay say all working fine. I'm sure i connected everything the right way. Anybody experience with this relay? I connected the ground, constant 12V and variable 12V wires from the relay. than…

Hello all, just started this again so I'm new to it.... wondered if anyone could help me? I've got a XVS 650 Dragstar, she's a 2001 model and the heat guards are falling off the the exhaust, I've riveted them back on but one of them came off last week while I was on the motorway, lost it completely... does any one know where I can get a new one without having to buy the whole exhaust????

There is a medical distinction. We've all heard about people having guts or balls but do you really know the difference between them? to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS-Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys , being met by your wife with a broom , and having the guts to ask "Are you still cleaning, or, are you flying somewhere?" BALLS-Is coming home late after a night out with the boys , smelling of perfume, and beer, lip-stick on your collar, and slapping your wife on the arse, and having the balls to say "You're next, fatty."

Hi everyone, I wondering if anyone has any experience or advice about the suspension of Fazer 1000's... It is well reported/known that the OE shock on the Fazer is a little overwhelmed and somewhat 'boingy' and many people stiffen them up by various means. I have a 9 yr old model and at about 10,000 miles I replaced the rear shock with a Maxton one and replaced the fork internals. 4 yrs and 25,000mils later and it feels like I'm riding a space hopper especially in bends which makes me lack confidence and takes some of the fun out riding! So my questions are, as someone who knows very little about how to set up suspension.... is my Maxton shock (a…

Hey I'm new here just wanted to introduce myself, I'm from Detroit, MI and just recently purchased my first bike from a friend last fall as a winter project. It's a 1975 Yamaha xs500 DOHC and I bought it in non-running condition, i replaced the coils on it, the plugs, completely rebuilt the carbs, new (used but in good condition) intake manifolds, and got the bike running. Now heres my problem... The bike will start, and idle fine once its warmed up like any other bike, sounds great, has a healthy rev when in neutral but where i start to wonder what could be wrong, when i ride the bike it runs fine up until about 4k-4500k rpm's then the right cylinder cuts ou…

how many zeros are there in a billion ? A Billion Pounds means nothing unless you can relate it to something we can understand better. I hope this helps you to understand what a mess our government has got us into. Thank you Mr Darling!! How many zeros in a billion? This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about Whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, But one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective i…

hello, it's been awhile, almost got my fj 600 road ready, been trying to find some lower fairings, not real important, but would like them any ways. am watching some on ebay, but there for an 89 fzr 1000, they kinda look like whats in the picture, just wonding if anyone can tell what will fit, and not, oh my is a 1985, had a couple of offers ta buy it, but don't want ta sell, just want ta ride it. does any body know where i might get fairing for my bike?

Having trouble with the bike starting after it gets warm. Green light is hard to get on, and cant figure out why the clutch switch wont let it start in gear, you know with the clutch held in. Now in the mean time you can push it off and starts every time. I have had the bike for going on 5 years and love it. My first bike. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, i need a good race exhaust for my tzr 50 and the best one ive found is a TECNIGAS G-BOX, i can't find an arrow one anywhere and the giannelli one is a bit pricey, any ideas?

This bike has me completely stuck sometimes. I love her, but trying to find parts to fit is extremely time consuming. I had to replace the front forks and wheel after a slight 'accident' and have eventually got it back on the road. The forks were slightly annoying to source but manageable. Then I got a wheel through ebay that fitted perfectally until it was being fitted and it was found that the bearings were the wrong size and apparently impossible to buy! However, now one of my back shocks have blown and realise the other will more than likely go soon and want to find some new ones as soon as humanly possible. Does anyone know of any shocks from ano…

Some little shit has made off with my pride and joy. Was parked in my girlfriends front garden overnight, chain on back wheel and down a steep embankment of grass to her front door. Its a bit of an effort to get out so thought no one would have the time to. I was so wrong. If anybody sees or hears of anything, please let me know. Chris =]

What do you lot think of these all-in-one suits. Would they be any good (dry + warm) for short trips into town and back. Its make is: Spada and its just an over-suit (pull over cloths) and Nylon lined. £45 quid

It's pretty realistic. Just wait for it to load, then use arrow keys to control the car.
