The Bar

Helloooo, I'm selling my 1979 Yamaha DT125 Enduro, I'm going to sell it as a project bike, not as a spares as their really quite a rare bike, Classic Its been sat in my garage for about 4years, however, it went to a classic bikes specialist four years ago and they completely revamped the engine and gearbox. It has done 8500miles on the orgional engine before the revamp, but it is now a mint engine and gearbox with no problems. I have stripped the paint on the fuel tank and cleared some of the corrosion inside the fuel tank, however, i think ideally it needs to be acid treated. I'm going to strip all of the paint off the body work, as my dad did a bad jo…

my 2003 XVS1100 struggles to swing over hot or cold and sometimes the motor even 'stalls' the starter-motor. battery reads 13.3VDC standing and 14.2VDC at idle. Is it true that these bikes 'strip' or break their starters as a model problem? welcome any suggestions and advice... thx Miguel

Hi, please can anyone help with the following ---it would be most appreciated I own a pre 83 V50 that I use when I go to the Greek islands (it resides there). It underperforms top end despite new carB, rings, Head & base gasket, Air filter & plug. You can feel an occasional short power surge as the bike struggles up hill, but the revs immediately die to labouring mode, downchanging then results in the ultmate over revving. Additionally The baffle is missing from the exhaust & getting a replacement out there is useless so some advice on how to get a replacement would be most grateful, unfortunately I forgot to check the exhaust end pipe internal…

A: there has been an up-surge of 'water-bombing' by kids from high rise flats over the summer months. B: 1 out of 10 ferret owning motorcyclists 'who expressed a preference', said their ferrets preferred the 'Johnny suit' to their owners purchase, namely 'ferret 1st time' motorbike waterproofs' from 'Oxford'. …

A lady went into a tattooist and said can you tattoo a butterfly on each of my cheeks. The tattooist said. "I'm not very good at butterflies, what about bees? "No" the lady said, "I really do fancy a couple of butterflies tattooed on my buttocks" The tattooist insisted that he really was not very good at doing butterflies but was good at doing bees. In the end the lady gave in and said OK I'll have a bee on each of my buttocks. When she went home that night, in the bedroom she said to her husband, "would you like to see my new tattoos?" "Of course said her husband" So she bent down and removed her draws and directed her buttocks towards her husband. After a whi…
