  3. Hi guys Am new on here, I have a yzf r125 and last night someone tried to steal it. Luckily they didnt get it started as i have the alarm with immobilizer etc fitter, but they have smashed the ignition barrel so i cant get the key in to start it. I have already ordered a new ignition barrel (just from a parts website, i couldnt seem to find official Yamaha parts so hope its ok) but what i am struggling to find is the haynes manual for the R125, can see them on amazon for the R1 and R6 but not the R125, can someone let me know if there actually is one? and if so where can i find it! Also if anyone has done this job before then would be good to hear if i am possi…

    ...as for my fellow yanks be prepared to offer blank stares, haha. The rabbit and barman A rabbit walks into a pub and says to the barman 'Can I have a pint of beer and a Ham and Cheese Toastie ?'. The barman is amazed but gives the rabbit a pint of beer and a ham and cheese toastie. The rabbit drinks the beer and eats the toastie, he then leaves. The following night the rabbit returns and again asks for a Pint of Beer and a Ham and Cheese Toastie. The barman, now intrigued by the rabbit and the extra drinkers in the pub (because word gets round) gives the rabbit the pint and the toastie. The rabbit consumes them and leaves. The next night, the pub is p…

    Hi Everyone, Hope you are all well and thankyou for looking at this topic. Right my yamaha DT125LC engine is not starting and we have stripped down the carb and blown it all out and we also looked at the top bit where the piston is and it all looks ok yesterday we replace the piston rings but no different and looks like it may need a rebore and just wondered what sort of price it would cost or anything that could be causing this not to start there is ab good spark would really really appreciate your advise . Thanks for looking , Harry.

  11. I found an old xs400 on craigslist near me. The guy wants 500 for it, but the bike doesnt run. I want the bike, but it has it's problems and I dont want to just be wasting money on a junk heap if I cant ever get it going. I'm thinking of offering the guy $350 for the bike and seeing what happens. Oh yeah, and cafe racer time! http://houston.craigslist.org/mcy/1582123940.html <link to the ad

  12. During WW II Lockheed (unbelievable 1940s pictures). This is a version of special effects during the 1940's. I have never seen these pictures or knew that we had gone this far to protect ourselves. During World War II the Army Corps of Engineers needed to hide the Lockheed Burbank Aircraft Plant to protect it from a possible Japanese air attack. They covered it with camouflage netting to make it look like a rural subdivision from the air. Before After linky here

    Am i the only woman who wonders WHY the fuck pillion passengers wear high heels? Went out for a bimble last night on Elvira to the local biker haunt for some food when 2 identical bikes pulled in each with a pillion. Both wearing the same jacket, jeans and high heels!! Now am i just being a grouch or am i missing something? Im a bit of a "down in the dirt" biker - i dont believe that, if you are a woman, being done up to the nines, with a face full of slap, wearing the tightest pair of keks you can find and a pair of high heels is a requirement to ride pillion, not to mention they aint gonna do much if the bike goes down - so what is it exactly that i am missing?

    His and Hers Diary, Page 1, Saturday. Hers: "He was quiet, subdued, just not himself. Something was wrong, he hadn't even kissed me all night. Not even looked in my direction. I think its another woman. I went to bed and cried. He followed me up later. I cuddled up to him and stroked his hair. He lay still. We eventually we made love and fell asleep in each others arms." His: "England lost, fucking gutted. Got a ride, though!!"

    Hey folks, I was thinking last night that maybe it would be cool to see if i could dig out / find any history on the CB chop that i have just bought, but is this actually possible? All i have got is a frame number and engine number and just know that it was imported from the States? Is there any sites that anyone knows of that gives history of vehicles over the pond? would love to find out who the owner was back in the day. Also i have to try and get hold of a dating certificate, anyone know the best way to do that as well?
