Wow you have some clever people over there..can`t believe this guy. He fitted a 350LC engine to a kawa ZXR400 (after changing the stroke to a "long rod" to make the engine square)..then fitted a turbo. Makes for interesting read..amazing amount of mods done. Calls the bike a Yamasaki WTF400.

I've come on here to confess a terrible sin that I am about to commit. I accept that I will be ostracised for this and also that I deserve it. I will shortly be parting company with my R6 and replacing it with a 2006 Kawasaki ZX6R. On the plus side my mate's bought my R6 so at least I know it's going to a good home.

Well, we all know what happens when you mix foamy + alcohole + Ebay = some thing well last night after drinking a fair bits of whiskey i find out that im now picking up a new project next tuesday Its a little 50cc twist and go and is all in bits, cant remember the make of it but it has all the bits there and a V5, the engine turns over by hand which is a good sign but he cant rememebr when it last run or if its still does. But i did get it for a nice price of £35!

Hi, I'm new to this forum so apologies for any errors in posting. I have a TW 125, believe it's 2003. It has been running fine for a few weeks, then one day it just wouldn't start (nothing at all). Managed to bump start it fine to get it home. On inspection one of the two fuses has blown (20 amp) but with a replacement in there still seems to be no current going to the starter. The ignition is fairly damaged from an attempted theft, but this has been no problem before. I turn the ignition on and the lights light up, indicators work etcetera. Kill switch is off, sidestand up, clutch in but the starter just does not spin. Any ideas or things to check first…

Hi all I just got my new/second hand XJR1300 (not an sp) I also got the twin headlamps that fit straight on to it. I think they would look real good on it. The question is what happens to all the wiring and plugs that you find in the original single headlight ? what do you do to make them look good without all that excess wiring hanging around many thanks Dr Devious

Did anybody see Twist the Throttle on the freeview channel? It was on Quest Freeview channel 37 over the weekend and documented how the motorbike manufactures started from scratch. Very, very interesting.
