    Hi guys got a problem with my 2001 R6. Full description of problem, i was riding on an A road and i was in fifth, tried accelerating but had no power, so i droppped it third, slowly pulled away. At the end of the A road there was a roundabout, i dropped to third but still no power, so i droppped it to first and the engine cut out. It runs fine with a battery pack, but as soon as you try to pull away it cuts out. I tried basic stuff like filters etc, but still no joy. My mate has a kawasaki and had similair problem, found out it was his side stand switch needed cleaning. Any help would be greatly appreciated as iv just bought a house and cant afford to send it to the garag…

When i put it all back together it seems when i put it on the side stand the bike is still almost upright and in danger of falling over the other way. Does any one know ehy this is? and how i can sort it i would like it to lean a heck of a lot more tbh. all help would be great as i cant take it out as i cant leave it if we stop off anywhere. thanks in advance

  8. Hi everyone,Im just looking "hopeing" for a bit of help if possible. If anyone has got a DT125LC MK2/3 factory workshop manual a copy of the cable/loom routing diagrams would be a great help. Im sure the pre 88 DT200 diagrams will be the same and the DT80LC 2 diagrams 99% the same. A copy of any would be fantastic. Regards Darren

    Does anyone know a bulb which is SAFE and BRIGHTER than the crappy bulb you get given from the factory? I did a 150 miles in pitch black the other day on B roads...took me FOUR HOURS!? -- Basically cause I kept nearly hitting corners...and once a lorry coming around one! Cheers, guys.

    I have a 1979 Yamaha GT80 that I recently got running, but very poorly. I have rebuilt the carburetor and decoked the top end. It is hard to start and once started, will not idle. When giving it throttle and then releasing the throttle the rpms take a long time to slow down. There are two small hoses on the carb, but I can't see where they are supposed to connect. Can anyone help? Thanks, Dan

    Hey everyone, Hope someone can point me in the right direction with my issues below. ive just bought a DT125 re everts. it runs fine but once left for a few days it takes 5-7 goes at starting it to get it going. Also, once its been warmed up for a bit it idles and rides ok with the choke on (up position), but when i flick the choke off (down position) it'll cut out after 10 sec's or so and if rev'ed it'll burbble an stall (a stalling kind or burble if you get me). i've changed the spark plug but thats it as i'm not too sure what else to do. any input would be a great help thanks Dave

    Hi Guys, I'm new here but this seemed a good place to get some great info. I'm interested in buying the FJR1300 A/AS but the seat height is too high for me. Does anyone know if it can be lowered further than the two standard heights available? Is there such a thing as a lowering kit for this bike? Can anything be done with the seat itself? Thanks in advance for you help, Gino.
