Yamaha dt 250mx wheels
No actually, when I'm looking for parts, I tend to use that type of site just for reference purposes and to grab the part codes. The fact that you can check other bikes that use that particular part is an extra! Oh, and don't call me Shirley!!!

Battery charging issue - new biker looking for help
First question is: WHEN exactly did you buy it? Second question is: Was it private or dealership? If you've literally just bought this bike, then it's not your problem (unless you knowingly bought it with electrical problems). If it doesn't get you around, then it is 'unfit for purpose' and a FULL refund is warranted... There are MANY more bikes out there to chose from, there's no reason to take on a problem when you don't need to.

aftermarket silencers
Armour appear to be more about classic bikes rather than performance bikes. But they do look nice.

Bike Registration
The first thing I'd want to know is whether the NI one with no V5 is stolen or not... You might want to check the VIN.

Yamaha 2005 XT125R front brake not holding pressure. Please help!
Woah, woah, woah, woah..! Chances are that if you had a cracked calliper, you'd know about it! It sounds to me like your bleed nipple is blocked. It's fairly normal for air/fluid to come out of the threads... 1/ Don't crack it open quite as far, it's only supposed to be cracked enough to let air out then nipped up again quick. 2/ Buy a new bleed nipple (I'm pretty sure they all have the same threads on them...). Out of curiosity, how are you bleeding the brakes? Are you: a/ Doing it the old fashioned way and using the lever? b/ Using a vacuum bleeder? c/ Using a pressure bleeder?

Those sound right offhand. So I've heard, I've not done it yet lol. Stupid question, you did check the gaps on the new plugs before you put them in, didn't you?

The Thunderace will take two different plugs (they're listed in the manual). If you don't have a Haynes Manual, say so, I'll dig mine out...

My poor bike is suffering...
Well, the red grease SHOULD be there anyway. That's what the pistons should be greased with anyway. The brake callipers aren't a problem for me, I bought a second set, so I can just swap them out when they need maintenance and do them at my leisure...

Well, that's not good, I'm assuming the engine hasn't ingested it? All I know about the Thunderace Carbs is that the emulsion tube isn't replaceable... NOT that I know what an emulsion tube is...

I saw those, but it says they're for threaded terminals, I'm pretty sure the Ace doesn't use threaded plugs.
