    Hi, I am new to the owners club thing and posting etc, just got back into bikes again after a long time! Just purchased 2 Divvies, one on the road, the other needs work to get back on road. Grew up with 2 stroke screamers.

    Hi I'm Helen and I've just passed my cbt this week. I have a new Yamaha YBR custom, which I chose as I found most bikes to tall for my 5ft frame. I am a rather mature new rider and so just been out on my bike around my local streets until I get used to giving the throttle some welly!! Unlike most young riders this is not natural to me yet. Can't wait to feel more confident and riding out with my boyfriend to Elan valley.

    Hi all,i don't want to go to the expense of buying new exhausts I wondered if it's possible to modify the standard ones? ie baffles and internal mods to give it a bit more of a growl without affecting engine setup etc.Cheers in advance.

    Finally, I am new to biking. Taken a few years to persuade the missus! Taught her to drive 6 years ago, had twist and go for 5 years and finally, after that gave up the ghost and thanks to not being able to afford a second car, I got the response "get what the hell you like"! So now a proud owner of an SR125! Now being accused of having a mid life crisis! Hey ho! Another year or so and I might get permission to get my full licence.

    Hey! I am new to riding, and have a old Yamaha YG5T. I saw my bike in a picture on google, next to another bike that is often up at my school parking lot (). I recently broke my clutch cable, and bought a replacement off the internet. I installed the new cable into the lever, but am unable to figure out how to properly insert the other end of the cable into the housing. Is there anyone in this club that can point me in the right direction. Thanks so much Dave

  13. Hello all, i've had quite a few bikes in the past but none supposes this one for the most ugly bike in the world.. The bike does have some history that im trying to find out about - belonging to The Combe Martin Motorcycle Collection at some point in its life – anyone heard of this place? Here it is after i got it home Ive stripped the plastic down to see what the condition is and started looking at starting it.. I've now had it over a year - much to my misses annoyance, i'll be starting a thread for the restoration... hello - i hope i enjoy this ride??

  14. Hey everyone, not sure if anyone cares haha but I am new to riding bikes, after being a pillion only for a few years, and have passed my test a few months back. Just bought myself an FJ6 Diversion F '13 in race blue, and was wondering if anyone could give me any basic tips on basic care and maintenance of the bike that I should do regularly? Many thanks

  15. Hi guys just purchased a dt 125 sm 06, and was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to where I can source the original graphics, previous owner strip the bike and with a view to re spay but never got round to it so the bike looks a bit tatty, I am in the process of prepping the panels for the final coat of color and ideally would like to get the original graphics back on. Your help with this is greatly appreciated

    Just a quick Hi, ive recently purchased a TT500 to restore so any pointers anyone can give me would be greatfully received. In particular how i can find out its date of manufacture as Yamaha can only tell me its a 1976 & i would like to register it for the road. I now have a summer of trawling ebay & auto jumbles, a bit like every other year really! Many thanks Steve

    I would like to say hi and then more importantly why i need help. I have 73 pictures so far of what i have got myself into. But first about me. I have one class left at the.community college where i will have an auto motive service degree. Yes you can get one. I did that because i wanted to learn the correct way. I have made quite a few bikes sing again. My first and pride and joy is my 75 Kawasaki triple. I bought it for 125 dollars not running but complete. My father helped me quite a bit but within a week i had new points and condensors. It fogged out the road. 2 stroke oil that hasnt burned in 27 years is nasty....times 3. Anyway, im doing this on my phone so ple…
