Hi i am looking for a job within the motorcycle industry and have been buying/repairing and selling motorbikes as a hobby for the last 15 years and would like to turn this into a full time career move if possible, anything considered within a 15-20 mile radius of J29 of the M1 motorway. Many thanks.

Hi, Took a tumble on my Thundercat YZF600 last weekend . I got a few cuts and bruises, and was dizzy for a couple of days, but otherwise ok. Can't say the same about the bike, pretty smashed down the left side, left handlebar snapped off, left and top fairing and rear panel broken, mirror broken off, left footpeg snapped, not to mention my injured pride. I accidentally spun the bike in Stratford, the roads were very slipery (I was actually trying to go in a straight line at the time), lost control as it spun, hit the curb and down like a ton of bricks. All I remember as my head hit the ground was my visor popping off and bouncing down the road... If anyone kn…

today me and my firnd have completed a just under an 100 mile round trip! we set off from my house at about 10 and didn't return till about half three! our route took us through some beautiful places, and some shit roads to! we saw the beach at morcombe, stopped for lunch in lancaster and stopped at dunsop bridge and beacon fell!! it was brilliant some roads are rediculous to ride on though especially with the stupidly skinny tires on my tzr. however both of us completed our tour well and we really enjoyed it! Who said you can't have fun on a 50cc is talking bollox!!!! here is a picture of my bike at morcombe... and another one in the middle of no where…

Hi im new to this website and have recently bought a 1995 Yamaha Dt50 mx. Unfortunately the speed of the bike is a problem as i am used to bikes over 125cc so the 50cc will no cut it. But it is a lovely bike to ride and i would be happy if it went a bit faster say 65-70mph. I know this is possible but it has been a nightmare looking for parts so can anyone please tell me where i can get a 70cc big bore upgrade kit and a new exhaust. Cheers Mnty

Hi guys.....I'm Bud and I live in Milton Keynes and I got an 03 Fazer 600. Look forward to talking to you guys.

Courtesy of MotoGP.com MotoGP World Champion Valentino Rossi had the opportunity to display his sheer speed on four-wheels in last weekend’s Monza Rally Show in Italy, as he teamed-up with Carlo Cassina to compete on a Subaru Impreza WRC prepared by Prodrive. The Doctor took second overall in the main event, as he was beaten by just 5.6s by Italian veteran Dindo Capello, but he shone in the final showdown which saw the drivers going head-to-head on a 1,500m gymkhana set in the main straight of the Monza circuit. Valentino Rossi has successively beaten Felice Re and Rinaldo Capello to qualify for the finale, which saw him face former WRC Champion Colin McRae…

Arfternoon folks, I'm having a bit of trouble getting booked in for my test. Some schools want me to sit 15 lessons before my test, some expect me to do 5 lessons on a 125 after my CBT. I've ridden bikes before (motorcross) so 15 lessons is a bit overkill. I've found a local guy who will do me hour lessons on a 500+ bike. Now, would be able to have a restrictor kit fitted to my R6 and use that on the road (since I now have my CBT) and use it on my test (not the most sensible choice but this guy is a one man band so is very hard to get a test time on his bike). Cheers guys!

my brother inlaws parents got a letter through the door the other day, no name just address. and what was inside? cocaine! they never knew what the hell it was but thought it dodgy to say the least so took it into the local plod station. who it was meant for i dont know the live in a little cottage(with a few others around it) out in the country!

Why are you reading this instead of going for a ride on this lovely day :?:

For fasteners like, nothing else. Anyho, I'm wanting to replace all of the fasteners and a lot of the bolts etc. on my R6 as there's a few went south. I can't find anywhere that sells them for love or money though. Any ideas?

One of the British national daily newspapers is asking readers "what it means to be British?" Some of the emails are hilarious but this is one from a chap in Switzerland ... Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for A Belgian beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV. And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of anything foreign.

Well im not sure on the riders, but i must say that this must have hurt!

the forum is gettin more activity

....a good access to some great off-roading areas yesterday. I went out for a spin with Road Rash from Trail Pilgrim.com...we found a good way into an area where he used to ride back in the 80's & that I knew of for quite awhile. Goat Mtn. has always been a good area for some off-road action ever since I 1st heard of it.....not to mention some great views As you can see, we ran into a little snow on the way up..... It was pretty chilly, especially in the shady areas.....but actually warmer than the past few days have been around here. We found plenty of evidence that this area is still alive & well for off-road use......Trails everywhe…

As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde in her car pulls up alongside. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Sharon and you are losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl again catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi, my name is Sharon, and you are losing some of your load!" Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down t…

for me it'll prob be a yzf750 if i can find a nice clean one. i had been looking before i got the gixxer, but any i seen were dogs so what about you lot? are you yamaha fans and only stick to yams, or will it be just whatever takes yer fancy?

Hi chaps & chapesses, happy new year to you all. This photo is of my arai astro j lid. I recently took a tumble from my bike during which the lid took a glancing blow on the road. As you can see, just above the visor-hinge(?) there is a 1p coin-sized chip off the paintwork but NO other damage whatsoever. Should I be thinking about replacing it? The scrape seems too superficial to warrant the expense of a new lid. I thought that until next year, maybe, i could touch it up with some light filler silver touch-up paint or even filler and a sticker any suggestions gratefully received. I enquired at a bike shop but all thay wanted to do was flog me…

I have to say that this game looks amazing!!! MotoGP 2006 Any of you played it? Just wish i had an Xbox now

And I'm not afraid to admit that I've struggled! Like today, I had to be careful I didn't get sunburnt! And the offroading has been done in treacherous conditions! Hell....I nearly got sand in my shoe once! But I can handle it! I'm hardcore I am!
