I've read all i can about these exhausts, but just want to know if someone has done it themselves and what they noticed afterwards. How much more top speed would i gain? Do i need to re-jet? Better acceleration? Let me know plz Thanks

Just a note to ask if you can get in touch as have information regarding the fz6 you purchased? not sure if you knew the bad problems it has as I am not sure if the dealer would have told you. you have been sold a ropy fz6 Cambridgeshire area uk. Cheers.

Right. Now i have my new chain had a bit of a look at it. Comes with one of those link pin/link things. Now its been a l o n g time since I replaced a chain. Thinking I may need to break the chain to get it off the XJ600. Then fix this new chain with link properly. Now I wondering what is the best tools for the job. New link is easy. Just put the wee washers on properly & use long nose pliers to clip link in securely ( in proper direction etc) But the old chain. haven't looked to see if its continuous or not but IF it is what would you recommend as the best proper tool for breaking/joining for long term ? ( Future bikes may have continuous cha…

Can ANPR cameras pick up motorcycle number plates as I need to pick up a scooter for my son and my insurance won't cover me because I don't legally own the bike how does it work or should I just stuff it in a back of a van Sparky67

There are many stupid riders like these and I am sure they are real threat to others on road. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbqDxAg4LMc

Well had my new 2 me 1985 Yamaha XS 250 for 4 weeks now almost 1000 miles later and here is the good and the bad form my perspective. Bad. Brakes, stop stooooooop stooooooooooooooooooooooooop, forgot just how hard you have to pull on 80s single disk brake to make an impact on slowing down. Not really a problem just something you have to get re-used to a few near misses and your there. Oil leak from final drive shaft, not a bad one haven’t needed to top op oil yet and don’t expect to before oil change. Actually a double edge sword. It is working as a very effective inbuilt Scot oiler; the drip runs down drive sprocket and lubricates the chain lovely. Problem is it …

Starting up motocross next year, im going to be 15 years old! So ill be old enough to enter a 250cc class I've never rode motocross, but I've got quite a good feel for bikes as ive riden for 9 years through woods, fields and trials, I currentley have a dt 125, as people have told me i should get a 250cc to start on with motocross because ive already got a 125 (I know there's a big difference between a dt and a yz) Im fairly tall like 5 foot 10, im 11 stone, so would a 250 be a good bike to start on? Or a 125? Im sensible on bikes im not crazy! Your opinion on what cc I've i should get?

Never got that thundercat - long story short, the gearbox was knackered, and it was crashdamaged. got a insurance quote for a XJ6-N, 370 quid fully comp.. going to glasgow to see it tomorrow! but i kinda want to wait till the MT-09 is out. . . .

I have spent a couple of months hunting for a bike to replace my XT125X, i needed something with off-road capability and preferably something that had a supermoto model of the same bike (less of a headache to try and sort out a Sumo conversion) Also needed more ommph then the 125, anything 250 and up really. I tried to arrange to view a '99 Honda xr250, but couldn't make a viewing before end of auction- so missed that one. After looking for a good couple of months i managed to find a bike for the 'right price', plenty of power, tons of ground clearance, maybe a bit tall- but then again most of these enduro bikes are. So i went to see a bike and after a lo…

This is how I made a GPS mount for my SYM Citycom. This may help others with scoots with a bag hook. I mounted half of a GPS mount to the bag hook of my scoot. these are the parts:1.) half of the GPS mount2.) two home made rubber washers for friction between the GPS mount and the U-bracket.3.) two washers to go under U-bracket4.) home made U-bracket5.) bolt to screw GPS mount to U-bracket this is how the U-bracket mount with the two washers underneath. I used the factory bolt to do it. everything mounted with the mount in the everyday ride "out of the way" position GPS mounted with a hair band (what ladies use to make a pony tail in their hair) for safety. T…

Got pulled today by armed response. I thought wtf! Turns out they were just warning me that my rear tyre was under inflated. I must say that the officers in question were very polite and helpful and seemed very genuine. Luckily I was just by a petrol station so I went to inflate my tyre, but the air pump would not fit on the valve because the of the brake disc on one side and swing arm on the other, so I then attempted to inflate the front, and again the pump wouldn't fit onto the valve because the wheels were too wide and valve was not tall enough. Where can I inflate my tyres?

Got my Mod1 test today after 3 days of training for it, feeling suprisingly confident! Will let you guys how it goes this afternoon.

Is anyone familiar with problems with a slipping chain on my push bike? Thanks

Ive moved from ireland to scotland and was wondering how i go about changing my irish reg on my fz6 to a uk plate does it cost much etc and would i have to do it ?

Got a Yam tzr50 2006 (2 stroke of course) Can anyone tell me what exactly kind of oil i should use or will any 2 stroke (bike) oil do? This bike is new to me so if anyone could steer me in the right direction as to what problems i should look out for on this model would be great too. Thanks. R.

Hey folks, today a nice police lady informed me that in the near future, if I get caught sitting on the green bicycle box at traffic lights with my MOTORbike, I'll get fined 120 smackers and get three points on my license. Oh joy! I mean seriously 3 points? Like when you get caught speeding? Because it's just as bad/dangerous? Sure give the cagers 3 points when they do it, with their fat arses taking up all the space on the green box but bikers? Come ooooooon! Grumph. And indeed harrumph...
