Hi all, I am new to the biking world. I have a 2003 v-star 650. regards, Will.

Just a quick hello to you all, I posted a question some time ago not noticing this section so better late than never i guess. My name is Shaun, 44 years old and while not really new to Biking I am new to big bikes, i passed my Mod 2 a few weeks ago and now run an XVS 650A, Ive had a couple of trips out the Brecon and Cornwall, which is a great way to really get to grips with my new found way of life, probably running into 1500 miles in the last 2 weeks, I'm thinking about putting her away for the winter (sad days) dam me for not passing my Mod 2 until September but God bless the late Summer sun that graced us right through till October.

Hi, I've been riding the last 2 years, first on a chinese disaster, then I got my Yamaha YBR 125, 08 plate. Lovely bike, great ride. Currently off the road dues to having an MOT and I've got to re-do my CBT. Funds didn't allow for a test yet, but will be looking to get my licence early next year. Couple of questions I need to ask about the MOT - so I'll stick them in the workshop forum. Rich (aka arkive2097)

Hi all, It says introduce yourself so here goes. 25 years after not finishing my bike test first time round (after my best mate was wiped out on his Honda 400-4) I'm trying again. I wish I'd done it back then though - 2 attempts to get through my Mod 1 test and I just failed my first attempt at Mod 2 is trying my patience and my wallet. I always loved the look of Viragos so bought a 250 for when I get through my test (I'm doing Direct Access). (I was going to upload the photos but I'm struggling with finding out about how to add to the gallery bit). I then made the mistake ??? of sitting on a Dragstar 650 Classic while trying on a new jacket. One p…
