My son recently knock off his alternator. We were lucky enough to find a replacement, stator, rotor and housing at a salvage yard. We put on the new parts and the bike ran perfect for two days. We are now having ignition problems, has only started twice today and cut out out while riding in second gear. We have ripped apart all the wiring we re-worked for the alternator replacement. We have check all the connectors associated with that. We have checked both coils and connections of the ignitor box as well and still no spark. We are positive its electrical because we can't get a spark on the plugs. We did the classic spark plug test, which it failed. I have a shop ma…

ok guys. I have a seca (not a maxim) xs400. The paperwork and the bike both stop at xs400 and don't make any further distinction. However, there are six different models of the xs400, and they use three different specs for the amount of fork to be used. Is there a reliable way to tell the difference or is there a reliable way to work around not knowing without screwing up my forks?

hi everyone i have a yamaha aerox 50cc 2005, it is derestricted and completly standard apart from the exhaust rollers and clutch springs, i fitted a leo vince tt sports exhaust on it today and also fitted the rollers and springs that came with it. when i pull away it hardly moves even on full throttle to pull away it is very very very sluggish and sounds like it is really stuggeling. is this because i need to derestric the variator to get more power, or is it because i need to upjet? i have no idea and i have college on monday and i ride it there everyday, soo any help would be great!! thanks

Hi all, today my bike started doing some noise when running slow and turning the front fork. I went down to the tachometer cable. I mechanical I've consulted told me the tachometer needs lube. Can you give me any advise in doing so? (XS400 12E) It doesn't seem difficult but I'd like to do it right. By the way, the only oil I've got is mineral 20w50, will that be enough for now. (I'll by a different one for the next time if needed). Thanks a lot, Asier

I have got a 1999 R6 with 23000ish miles on the clock. I recently noticed a noise coming from the top end of the engine?? and was wondering if anyone knows whether this is likely to be the Cam chain tensioner or un balanced carbs?? I have checked the oil...all ok. The bike has been run until very recently restricted to 33BHP, so this may also be a factor?? Any advice would be breatfully appreiciated.#
