Well, my near perfect record of ebay purchases has been derailed. I recently invested in a seat unit for one of my many bikes, paid my money only for the bloke to convinently dissapear without a trace. Despite numerous emails and attempted phone calls - nothing. Being as man of limited means I dont have a lot of money to invest in my bikes and with a little one only weeks away I need to be mobile to get to work to pay for nappies etc, so if you are out there 'jgwlong' (ebay name) thanks a bunch! My advice to any of you ebaying for bits is to look out for this ebay ID and excercise caution. PS does anybody have any ideas on how best to fix a baby seat to a motorcycl…

Sorry for the site being down guys! Yes the site is now two years old, and the domain had expired. It was setup to automatically renew but my card details had changed and rather than nominet just send an email explaining that the card number was no longer valid they just swithed off the domain... nice hey! Anyway all back up and running and should be stress free for me for a few more weeks until IPB2.2 arrives!

...today. Not as warm Pete in Spain perhaps but some nice blue sky and sunshine and cracking scenery. The original pictures I had in mind didn't work out as the hills were a bit too haze shrouded so after a round-a-bout trip I ended up here, near to where I work a lot. The hill opposite is where I went next, top right hand side you can make out Loch Ness. Then across to the other side of the Glen for a better view of Loch Ness. Then back down to the main road and along the side of Loch Ness to a hotel, and guess who had waded ashore? Didn't look too impressed by the Divvy though! Probably not too many days like this le…

Great little run today on the XT! Temperatures have dropped dramatically down to the mid 20's....so it's warm off the bike and cool on it. Unlike July and August when it was regularly 40 and above, and riding just wasn't an option. I went up the Sierra de Segura mountains on the Santiago road again....where you have 25 miles of hairpin bends on narrow roads, with road surfaces so bad it looks like they've been hit by Allied bombers in places! This is not a road for self-professed internet riding gods! This is real life and you're playing for keeps. :lg: You don't get a smooth racetrack surface with good visibility....in fact on some bends, vision is red…

Hello folks, sorry ive not been on recently. college and other things such as being on the bike seem to be taking over time to get the club. however here some pici's of my last outing. im loving the hornet (in a non gay way pete) its great. i even rode in the absoult p!ssing rain the other day just to see what it was like. its crap but now i now just in case i ever get stuck. so anybody looking into new tyres can't reccommend Dunlop D208 Race Replicas enough! but now i can't decide wether to got down the route of trackday or wheelie school yet. any ideas? anyway heres a few pici's! The lovely Lancashire Country side! And yes i have scribbled on my tyres 'cos im sa…

About 4 weeks or so ago now me and the misses went for a much earned break in the Lakes (Keswick to be exact). Monday morning I was woken by the phone going off... bloody great news, new job just came through. To celebrate... we took a ride out to Windemere. Weather was great, not a cloud in the sky... perfect Almost at the lake with the misses on the back we noticed that someone needed to cross on the zebra crossing so we stopped to let her over... however the elderly lady behind us had other ideas A quick THUD and I was off down the road at a rate of knotts and the misses went skywards and landed back on top of the bike... great! Police, ambulance, fire brigad…

My friend drives a Toyota Supra that just recently did the quarter mile in 13 seconds. Can my 1989 yamaha radian 600cc beat that? Would it be close? Anyone know what a 1989 radian can do on the quarter mile? Any quick tweaks I can do before the race to give me that extra edge?

Hey all, nice to meet ya, newbie here and all that funk My Q or dilema is this, i walked into a yamaha dealership last week, looked around as you do at some fine machinery, saw the deal on the YBR125, went home, scratched my head then picked up the phone and bought the bike. I repeat i know jack about motorbikes other than they looked cool in Akira and i wanted one since. The question is this, does the bike have somewhere where i can store the helmet? Thanks in advance, flame is you want, you cant hurt me no more than the GF when i broke the news to her w000t.
