Hello everyone! My name is Zoli (Hungarian name) came from Serbia (small state that has emerged from the Yugoslavia) live in the 300km from Belgrade in a small town called Kula. Now I drive a Chinese chopper Kinroad 250cc, motorcycles like yamaha drag star400cmm of whom do not know much but I hope to here to find out all about him. so much about me.

Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Denis, 48, French and I've been living in England for quite a few years. Apart from having driven 50cc mopeds and scooters (not very recently) I've only driven a geared motorbike once about 30 years ago. As you see I'm quite the newbie. Well, hopefully that'll change soon as I've just purchased a XVS125 and should pass my CBT next week-end. I've joined hoping to gather information and advice about this bike (worthwhile modifications, accessories, maintenance...) and the motorcycling world in general. Hopefully, if and when I get more knowledgeable, I'll be able to return the favours an…

Hi all, retired building site manager [project manager now called]. Hobbies shooting, bikes and house restoration. Just bought my first cruiser, a 2002 250cc Dragstar, had most bike in my life sports, naked etc. But the years are catching up on me bikewise so I thought I would let my head rule this time. I don't know whether I will like this type of bike but will give it a go. Just wondering if anyone has a owners/workshop manual for the bike that I can buy asap. Thanks

Hello Im in the process of taking a CBT and buying an XVS125. I've recently found a renewed interest in bikes. My original interest in bikes was when I was 16 and my dad bought me a 50cc scrambler which was later nicked by some scrote. My interest disintegrated from there however, 14 years later and I find myself falling for the XVS. It seems to be everything I'm looking for in a bike and am looking to get stuck in with tweeking and customising it. Cheers

i've got a dark blue 950 xvs, with black wheel's which i don't like, in my eye's, the black wheel's don't look right on it, does any one want to swap a chrome or alley set for my black one's. cheer's all.

Hello, I have just purchased a 1995 yamaha sr 125 as a project. i knew when i bought it there was an issue with the fact it starts and ticks over, but as soon as you ride it within 5 mins, it starts to loose power. i purchased it at a very good rate from a garage, who say, that given time and lots more of my money for looking at it, they could solve it, however id rather have a go myself. They say, they think its electrical, as the starter swicth on the right side and the horn on the left side have been bypassed and replaced with a couple of ugly buttons on the handle bars. My plan is to put the bike back to its orginal spec, but I am wondering if there are any po…

Hello, My name is Natalie and i'm from Hull, I recently bought a Yamaha SR125 1991 reg with disc break, thought id say hi.

Hey all, Just bought a 1980 DT175 G a few weeks ago. While searching the webs for info on it I came across this I'm pretty sure it's the bike. So a few years on here's the DT in Wellington: Pretty good condition aside from some extra surface rust. Since getting it I've cleaned it up a bit, replaced the break pads, installed some boysen reeds and had a leaking crank seal replaced. Not sure what I'll do next on it. Cheers

Just resurrected my biking life (after 10 year) with my "new" FJR1300 AS. Previously rode XJ900.

hey everybody, just signed up because, yes, I need halp! i'm new to bikes (usually work on cars), and in fact don't even have my "new" bike in the garage yet (77 Honda 350). But my friend just picked up a YA6, and I know we already have questions. anyway, just saying hi. If you know anything about the wiring, feel free to chime in. I'll be posting shortly in the "classics" section. Thanks

Quick introduction...my name is Maciek, i am from scarborough, have yamaha yzf r125

Hi there Obviously I am new to the forum as this is my introduction, so here goes. I have been out of biking for a few years but a recent divorce has led to the restocking of my toybox and my FZR 1000 scares the kak out of me , just a little faster than my old VFR 800 !!! Just for good measure I have bought my 16 year old lad a bike hence the 125's listed. I work in the bush and so live my life 3 weeks at a time when back in civilisation which for me is the Cape. All of the bikes have issues (it's an Africa thing) so I will be picking brains. For that I say thanks in advance. Mark
