Hi there, Just took the bike out and at first the bike wouldn't respond to the key being turned. After turning the key 2-3 times the bike would start then die again. Bike finally started and seemed okay. Then I lost complete power when I hit a certain rev count, and again took a few tries to get the bike going again. Any idea of prices to get this sorted?

I know it's stupid question. But I feel like my riding life has just unlocked a better way to ride a bike. Is this merely just jumping the revs?

Hi there, I am a new rider of a few years (Not so new but consider myself new) I have just been out and was testing my revs on the bike. I was in first gear, twisted the accelerator a little bit, let it go, then twisted again and I zoomed down the road a lot faster than I would usually? Am I just a novice or does this have a specific name? Kane

Good Afternoon, Whilst out for a ride in the English countryside I hit a deer which sprung across the road. The damage was minor - cracked fairings on the front, cracked mudguard, steering was out of place, and the chain was bent, some how. So, everything is now fixed and a new chain ordered. I have removed all the body parts from the chain and sprockets, luckily enough the bike is only a year old and bought from brand new, so sprockets themselves are perfect, just bloodied. My essential question is; I've spent the last remaining money on new bodywork ect, and cannot afford a massive garage bill to fit the new chain. How much should I expect a garage to charge me to fit the chain? (Got a brand new one ordered and on its way) Or should I call some garage-street-smart mates to have a look? When fitting a new chain is a sprocket essential or can it just go on the current one? Many thanks guys, Kane.

Hi Family, I recently bought my first ever bike, a Yamaha YBR. Just whilst I am learning to ride and get used to the bike. My dealership suggested this site as it will 'come in handy' many thanks, Kane.
