Hi all, Name is Ross Rolley here in the far north, Cairns. Just traded a near new 250 Virago after only a cew months on a new XVS650. Could not resist. Now I need to learn as much as I can as soon as I can...unless the present rain continues for yet a few more weeks and keeps me off the road. I am 65 yo and new to all this. I have had a lic. all my life but have not been on a bike for say 45 yrs. Even then it was for but a few short rides on gravel... a small Suzuki from memory. Cheers

hi, i have a problem with my 07 ybr 125. it starts ok from cold but when i travel approximatley 2 miles to the garage for the mcn and turn the bike off it is very hard to restart. it has a carburettor. any ideas ? thanks.

hi, i'm typing with one hand as my right is in a sling due to a shoulder op so thats why there are not many capitals. i live in burgess hill west sussex and have owned my r6 for 6 years, as i am now old and victor meldrew like and have worn out wrists,no not doing that, i tried higher bars but they looked crap, this is how it looks now, since i can't ride for a few months i am changing the front lights to a stacked pair, between the forks, pics will follow. this is still an R6 goes like a R6, handles like a R6, more manuvarable in traffic, and a lot more comfortable. have fun keep it upright, graham

Hi Guys, I'm new here but have found some really helpful things while I browsed over. I got my YBR last week, no problems, running like a charm. This is my first bike, and only really started riding the day before I got it. (CBT) The only problem I have right now is my headlight. When I got it, it was working, I've not dropped or crashed it but now, it won't work!!! When I turn the ignition on (Key to on position, NOT starting it) the parking light (Small bulb) comes on. When I start the bike (Elec start) the headlight is supposed to come one, but mine isn't! When I flick to high beam, nothing, no light on the dash to notify of it either. I have replaced the bulb, and checked the only fuse I could find (Next to the battery) I have checked what I can of the wiring, and everything looks to be spot on... but what is wrong with it?? Please help if you can, I soil myself when the street lights have gone out. Thanks in advance. Sanial
