I've not tested the water of late, I'll do it tonight, although to be honest I don't even think I've got an Ammonia test kit! Nitrite is defo at 0, unsure about Nitrate, again I'll have a check although I did a 1/4 water change yesterday and removed the carbon from the filter as I've put some medication in, the Domino Molly has a fungal infection, which is now clearing up. When I removed the carbon, I cleaned (in old aquarium water) 2 of the 4 foam filter pads and added in some new Biomax into the now empty trap (from the Carbon) the filter - it's an external Fluval 205 filter. The carbon will get replaced next week when the Molly is fuly recovered. All the othe…

Hi guys Me and my friend have decided to go round Europe on our bikes in the summer and i have so many qustions!! 1) My bike is only insured TPFT, do you think this is asking for trouble on a long ride? 2) Is there any decent luggage racks for a 2008 R6 that people have used? 3) Where are the best places to go on your bike? Im sure i'll have more nearer the time but thats good for now, any help would be great!! Cheers

Evenin' all, New to the site and biking, started in Nov '08 but am on my 2nd Fazer already and came off that one 2 weeks ago (bastid diesel)! So 2 spills in 5 months and 4600 miles so far. Love the Fazer. love bikes and look forward to adding my bit to the site. Cheers, Martin

You will probably guess from my username that I am new to biking ,I have bought a 79 xs 250 off ebay ,its a bit of a dog at the moment but I am hoping to give her a good seeing to and ride her like seabiscuit . Anyhoo I have to fill out a V5 ,and need the frame number only thing is I cant seem to find it ,can anyone tell me where it is ,it looks as the the frame has had a lick of paint at some point but I would have thought I would have been able to find it . So after paying 132 quid for the bike (I am not cheap just things are a little tight for us all at the moment) I got it home and tried to fire it up ,needed some juice in the battery so hooked it up to the car…

Guess who won the R1 from the George White Superbike Blast today I nearly died after answering the phone!

Hi,i'm new here so i would be grateful if you could be gentle with me,just to start with anyway I ride an Fzr600r and love it or her i should say. No doubt i will post more at a later date as being a woman i will have my opinion

Any1 tried riding one of these?... I had a crash course (literally) when I went to India abt. 3 years ago.. Never been on a bike before learning on an Enfield... So for me, gear changing on the Right and brakind with the left foot was normal... Great fun they are!.. but not when they land on you because you try to avoid a bullock heading for a collision course (totally oblivious those things!!!) The best thing about riding in India is that you dont need to wear a helmet - such a sense of freedom!... - just pop your flip flops an and away you go.. err ensuring you've clothed all other necessary bits.. regards -mits-

Now I'm not putting trike riders down as we all have our preferences............but I'll start the story here.........I was driving my car down the road (as you do) and I was behind a trike, rider just had geans and T-shirt on, NO LID and this go me thinking (always a 1st I know) When out on my bike I often get smacked in the head by the odd passing BEE and at speed you really feel it through the lid and of course hear the THUMP as it strikes the LID. Now 99% of the time it hits the visor and this got me thinking....................just how much must it hurt at 60 mph when riding a trike with no lid on as you pass a field full of rape seed, bee's and other f…

Had a near miss last night from work Was riding thru' freckleton going home. There is this slight bend to the right, (no more than 20° I'd say). On the inside of the bend, there is a newsagents where there was a car parked. An oncoming car is ovrtaking the parked car, at which point the driver of the parked car gormlessly opens the door, the overtaking car consequently swerves into my lane (Narrow lanes) I have to nearly swerve onto the footpath, If I didnt swerve as much as I did, - well, it would have been nasty... bloody gormless driver!...

Hi everyone, Just thought i would say hi as i have just registered here. I have recently bought my first on-road bike - a 1999 DT125r (in need of a little TLC and tidying up), and am hoping this is the right place to come for any advice/info i may need! I have been into offroad bikes for a while now, and fancied something i can green lane on and commute in the better weather! Looking forward to getting chatting to you all. Cheers, Mark
