Hello, Got an RXS100 after CBT. Didn't know what I was doing when I bought it (a few days ago), and think I am paying the price. loved doing the CBT and loved riding this bike. having a few issues but the folks here have been really helpful, thanks.

Hello! I am new to this site but not new to motorcycles - I've had in excess of 100 in my lifetime!! I currently own a Yamaha VStar 1100 and cannot properly operate gear shift and foot brake with these foot boards interfering. Need foot pegs. Is there a conversion? Anyone done it?

Hi Guy's I am from Bradford, West Yorkshire, England, and I am a new rider. I recently purchased a 2006 XT 125 X Which I am really happy with. I have owned motorcycles before but they were mainly crossers which I used for the field. I am looking to meet other enthusiasts and learn everything I can about motorcycles. I am totally clueless about the mechanical aspect of things, and if I am honest I am proper crap at practical things such engines etc. Thanks Jordan

Dug a free bike out of a backyard. Had some bees in the bonnet, literally, and ivy growing through just about every bit of it. Apparently a tree got knocked down on either side of it, and it's been pinned until recently ever since hurricane Isabel ripped through my part of Virginia. It's now sitting comfortably under the eaves of my smithy, and I'm planning a full frame-off. I have a feeling my TIG welder and 3-axis mill are going to get a workout on this one. I have a friend with a 3D printer that does ABS plastic like a dream, might wind up with a few custom made parts too. The original tank doesn't leak, frame's solid, if a bit rusty (surprisingly less than I'd exp…

hi all..new to the forum..I've had an XJR1300SP and now i have an XVS 1100 Dragstar custom.

Hi all, I have just bought my first bike! Been wanting to get one for a few years and after coveting my brothers GS finally took the dip! Only ridden off road before and that was in my "yoof" Looking forward to doing my CBT and exploring the great Scottish roads.

Hi Everyone My name is Dennis I am 52 years young!!! I have had more bike than I care to remember, they include FS1e, RD 250, RD 400, RXS 100, Kwak KH250, Suzuki X7, Suzuki X5, Honda CRM250 and they are just the smokers!!! I am looking for some help with RXS 100 settings, do not have manual, but if you have one you might be able to help, see forum Thanks

Hi I have a Yamaha RT1 360 and need to know how to determine the manafacture date so that I can order some parts. Can you assist? (I purchased the bike secondhand in 1974) Venla

Hi all. Any suggestions where to find head light bulbs for FZR1000 1992 single head lamp with spots inside. and what bulb it is everyone tells me its a H3. Yes it looks exactley the same but half the size. 3 pins at the back. I have my yammy now for a year and didnt think FZR spares are so scarce in SA.

Hi to one and all. I'm new to this site. Bikes have been in the blood since I was 14. Let my licence lapse which is possible here(life,young family, as the story goes). I'll need to sit the test again at some stage. I tend to go for small engined bikes normally basket cases. I get them back up and running. Then they're rebuilt/restored to their former "glory". I've kept one or two but, normally, limited space in the bike shed, means one has to go. To make room for the next project. My current project is a '98 XV125 Virago. Picked it up yesterday, in a pretty sorry state, about 95% complete. I doubt very much that it's been washed in the last 1/2years. Ther…

hi guys, just thought I'd say hi, just bought a 125 virago with a few niggly problems and was told this was the place to come for help. didn't want to just jump straight in with the problems and what section do I use for asking such questions?? thanks in advance

Hey people I have joined this club, just now, to try and get some help for my pal Keith who has a problem with starting his Tcat. I had an SV650 and got wrid of it which is the worst thing I have done I well miss it so I will probably get a tcat as well as they are great bikes and very good value for money!!!. I put a post up in the help section but I hadn't introduced my self, which was a bit rude. I'm just quite keen to help Keith out as he isn't very web savvy and he is getting a bit low because his Tcat was stolen and then recovered but he can't get it to work again :'( Musselburgh / Edinburgh area... I'm sure he would pay for someone to help out…

Hi, I'm new from Mexico, I just bought a Fazer 150 hope I will have fun with it.....
