Hey, I have just finished fitting my new Cyclone C11 Alarm System. It talks to you, an has a very good overtaking alarm which alerts other drivers of your presence when overtaking. The 125DB siren will pierce the ears of anyone who tries to mess around with the bike. Just ask if anyone wants any further information on it or any help with fitting.

Hey guys. I've got the opportunity to purchase a good condition 82 seca 550. It would be for my girlfriend who is only about 5 feet tall (5'1" on a good day). Does anyone know what the stock shock size/seat height is and if there are 11 inch shocks available for this bike? I've browsed around and can't seem to find any shocks that are shorter than stock. thanks for the help.

Hi All, My cat failed its MOT on the rear shock rebound. Can I sort this myself or is it a new/exchanged shock? Does the R6 shock fit the cat? I haven't got the money for a £300 pound shock and I cannot find any second hand shocks on the net. Thanks all

Hi, I am just wanting some advice on buying my 1st motorcycle. I live in Australia and here we are restricted to ride a bike with a 250cc or less while on a learners permit, which I haven't gone for yet. Anyway I have been looking around online, alot on ebay. I have found many Virago 250 for a good price. Below $2000. And this is a good price for me at the moment. However, all i can find is that they are a comfortable and relatively easy bike to ride and learn on. There is also the option of getting a road/trail, but have not ever been keen on them The other information that I have found is that alot of women ride these. Or alot of women are selling them to upgrad…

Hi guys, I'm doing my test soon and thinking about what bike to get. I like the look of the Yamaha MT-03, what I need to know is will this be ok for commuting? And does it burn a lot of oil with it being a single cylinder? Advice would be great! Cheers

Hi all, just wondering if the extra wind resistance caused by a screen is gonna be too much for my little bike to push through or if it will improve things for MPG and comfort? i have a 25 mile each way commute, mainly along a dual carriageway on the coast and it gets pretty windy sometimes i'm thinking about getting a universal screen like the Airblade Tall boy anyone had experience of one of these on a 125?? thanks Rob

Hi all and thank you for having me along in the forum.. Posted couple pics of 96 YZF 600 R picked up couple wks back. Returned to Bikes after many years away One question.. Should I need to adjust suspension settings (particularly rear) on the Cat according to weight or are these things generally not to be touched? Bike seems to handle fine and no major issues in the limited time had the Cat.. Do ride the bike solo.. Thanks john

Hi guys, Sorry I'm a bit of a noob but I got my YZF-R125 yesterday and I want to take the pillion foot rests off (not insured to use so no point having them). Had a look earlier and I think I just gotta take the plastic panel under the tail off in order to get the pegs out once unbolted...but I cant work out how to do this, I'm not too keen on taking bits off willy nilly due to just getting the bike. If someone knows the best/easiest way to take them off a guide in doing so would be very helpful Sorry for the probable siplicity of the task, Ali

I've had new pads for the rear sitting there for a while, and as i had the day off work i got round to changing them today. I had a pretty decent idea of what i was doing but i consulted a mate who had previously done his before. The pads came out fine and the new ones went in, but now i dont seem to have a rear brake pedal. Im putting my right foot to the floor and the brkaes simply arent working. Has anyone done this before and can maybe think of an important thing i might have missed out on my first time?

has anyone out there put a newer body off a r6 or r1 on a yzf750!! if so what year!

Hi Fitting new fork seals First was easy 2nd not so,.....bottom hex bolt will not undo.....just turns the inner slider. How do it stop it spinning and undo? Thanks in advance

Hi fellow bike fanatics. I am a new member, from england! I am in trouble with my bike at the moment.. the engine on my Yamaha dt 125R 2004 seems to have siezed up. The enginge wont turn over even with a bumpstart, the back wheel stays locked. Is there any other way to test if the engine is siezed? I think I may need to take the engine off so I can send it away to be fixed, a full enginge rebuild is available on eBay for 300pounds. Any help or diagrams or step by step to taking the engine off.. I have all the tools etc..

I bought my son a moved for his birthday and it just doesn't run right. It seems to go well for a day and then its performance goes down with every trip. We have looked at the clutch shoes, replaced the rollers with new, replaced the belt with new replaced the battery and spark plug with new. Every time its the same. Good improvement for first trip and then down hill with every trip. We are not bothered with top end performance we just want steady acceleration from start and consistent speed. There is a sports exhaust on it but l don't think this is entirely at fault. Also it does drink fuel like a demon. Can anyone give us some pointers please.

Just put myself down a deposit on a new project bike
