Just having the warning light come on only indicates a problem but not what the problem is or which sensor is being activated. This is really ridiculous. I stopped at a shop. They changed the oil. I stopped at another shop they added brake fluid. I was on a long drive up over the mountains to my home in northern Thailand. The light came on again, stopped at another shop. They shrugged their shoulders and said I should just try to make it home. I did but with great anxiety. I called a mechanic friend of mine and he gave me this advice. Hope this helps.... Have you checked the air filter? . Check the coolant fluid reservoir. It is behind the big front cover under the …

So riding to work this morning and a sneaky bugger decided to fly in under my helmet! In a car, the missus panics cos she can't see where it is. This morning I could see it very clearly sat on my nose at 50mph!! Slowed down to 30 and lifted the visor and the little shit then sat on my eyebrow. Talk about adrenalin rush as I stop the bike and remove my lid! I had 2 bikers stop and ask if I was alright one a yammy, the other a BMW! Can you believe it? A BMW rider actually stopping and caring???? Luckily at o' Christ hundred hours there were hardly any cars out. Anybody else had issues with wasps in their helmet?

Hi All, I'm the proud new owner of a YBR 125, my first bike and I need a really good waterproof outdoor cover. The only positive reviews seem to be on a Tucano cover but I can't find one for love nor money! Anyone any ideas where I can get one or of another brand that works really well? I was going for an Oxford Stormex but read the reviews and decided against it! Thanks.

The country is a bikers paridise especially around southwest France. Lew

A forum poster linked this for me ( via Sweden) a write up from Gary Inman bike journalist who writes for Classic bike and owns Sideburn magazine. http://www.influx.co.uk/wordpress/features/we-come-from-garageland/ would have been nice to mention me or the photographer, it looks like it's supposed to be a Deus bike. can't have everything I suppose!
