The Bar

Does anybody have or know anyone with a 'Da jiang X-treme 125', a guy from work bought one and is in need of help with it (I suggested petrol and matches, he was'nt into that), just wondering if Foamy and his mates, who are into their 'exotic flowersbikes' would have any info? thanx in advance

Hi, i have just bought a sr125. It's my second bike and im coming from a sachs xtc supersport. I havent got the bike yet but bought it for 400 no tax or mot and have it booked in this saturday with my local garage. Here is a pic It has covered just 1066 miles and is a 1999 reg, and was apparently dry stored for 7 years. Is there anything i should do or check as soon as i get it? Im also looking to get a visor or screen for the front. Just a small clear one, teardrop in shape. Has anyone done this modification. Also are the bikes restricted at all, obviously i know its not going to be lightning fast but every little helps.

what sand paper to use to get a good crome like shine ? i was thinking 2000 grit or maybe 2500 or even 3000?? what do you think i have already sanded the bits im doing with quite fine stuf but you can still see the lines so want to go even finer i know how to do it as i did it to the top of the coper cooler on my computer prosesor (lapping) just wondering how far to go ? this is the cpu after lapping with sand paper so thats what i want my other stuf to look like but not coper obv

HI, I HAVE BASICALLY DONE A CBT 125 AND RIDE A YBR125. I WAS WANDERING IF I CARRIED A PASSENGER 200 METRES ON IT WITH WHO HAD NO HELMET ON WHICH I KNOW WOULD BE A STUPID THING TO DO, WHATS THE WORSE COULD HAPPEN TO ME IF I GOT CAUGHT BY THE POLICE? CHEERS.

is it true dt 125 r no longer road legal because of emissions

Just wondering here, with the amount of people who come on with the same question, "IE I have a DT 125 and want to make it go faster." Considering the frequency of the question would it not be worthwhile to have a sticky in the off road section that gives the folks some RELIABLE info, maybe a few web sites like DT.com or whatever its called. I'm not wanting to turn members away but those sites have dedicated blogs with instructions on "how to destroy your engine in the most expensive ways imaginable" i mean garage tuning. Some real advice for people. I would have thought its a pretty pro forma method to tune up a healthy DT, you know, standard methods for removing …

i am looking for a white light effect simular to the projector type hids,but without the expence .it needs to be a direct bulb swap ,i tried various types such as blue light white light rainbow ,this was a so called super white (not) light .have you got or do you know of such a bulb .

I've just negotiated a deal on a spankin new 2009 Yamaha XVS950a Midnight Star. Only came into the UK on Weds last week and i should (hopefully) take delivery of mine next week once all the t's are crossed and i's dotted - and this blerdy snow lets up! Apparently im he first in the UK to own one. How cool is that! Cant wait!! WOOHOOOOO!!

Hello from sheffield, ive just got my 1st big bike a fzs600. So ive joined here in the hope of a bit of biking banter.. hello to 1 n all Matt

it`s a funny old thing to look back at the bikes you once owned.. when i was a spotty youth, i owned bikes such as suzuki A100`s, FS1E`s, Honda CB125 twin, LC250 ,Suzuki GT250`s = many, suzuki DR, plus a bucketful of off road stuff, ect ect and i remember them all with a big smile and thought they were the mutts nuts???? oh except for the CZ!! just recently i had the chance to ride both a CB125 twin and a A100 and it`s surprising how small they are. how i ever managed to go fast on any of those is beyond me thier handling and brakes scared the life out of me i think being 6 stone heavier and 4" taller might have some effect on the aero-dynamics me-t…

I've just got back from 2 weeks in Eygpt and apart from the Choggie 125's/250's the most popular bike was the Jawa 350 twin so I guess if we lived there we would be taking the pee out of Jap bikes

Jack and Jill, went up the hill, To fetch a pale of water, Jack fell down and broke his crown, and Jill came tumbeling after. What Really Happened!!! Jack and Jill, went up the hill, To have some hanky panky, Jill bent down, they shagged till sun-down, and they both came down full of laughter.

well peeps, lack of space and with the arrival of the XJ, the time has come to move the DT on to a better life... wish i had chosen a more dignified send-off than eBay though . chances are in a few years time i will be wanting to buy it back...

When i say this i no i speek for a lot of people i know with bikes the route we take from Thorne (doncaster) to whitby is just amazing via helmsley stokesley hutton le hole and sands end! all in all its about a 210 mile ride and we do it regular. the best part of this ride is the part all the locals call the helmsley TT and let me tell you when you ride it you'l love it. also when you get to a place called chop gate about 200meters after the sign there is a pub and just after that a real sharp left turn take that and folow the road ( tarmaced but ride slow as really thin road) for bout 2 - 3 mile and you will end up at a place called lord stones. its a cafe ( where bik…
