some people have no idea do they? I had the manager of one of the other boatyards in the area on the phone the other day spitting fire & declaring that he is going to take us to court & sue us for avery penny we've got bacause we've been "pinching his clients". apparently he had a couple of...

I've found the bike below and it looks nice. However as this is my first bike I am mechanically clueless. Is someone able to give a little of their time to go over there in Perivale and have a look at it with me? 1987 HONDA XL600 TRANSALP NICE TIDY RELIABLE BIKE, WOW | eBay UK Apologies if...

After jetwashing my xr400 last night my headlight has decided to go off if I rev th bike on dipped beam , however this does not happen on high beam, previous owner has disconnected side light, has fitted heated grips, and I am pretty clueless about electrics. Also the xr has no indicators, and...

Is it me? am i out of touch? or are these people that we laughingly call a Government a completely clueless bunch of idiots? I work in the financial sector, we saw this all coming years ago, we moved all our clients out of the stockmarket and into cash,gold and silver in February 2008, we have...

Hey guys, the light on my instrument panel has failed (least im guessing it has, I bought the bike second hand, it does have one right?) assuming there is one fitted how would I gain access to it for repair? its not covered in the manual... also newbie question but whats the theory behind the...

Apologies in advance if this is the mother of all dumb questions. I did a search and found some pointers about aiming headlights but after trying to do it last night I'm still a bit lost. The way I did it was to place the bike about 20 feet (also tried about 15 feet, and 10 feet - everywhere I...

Hi all,, Now after about a month of getting all sorted on my RD04, new Ohlin's backshock, new Scorch exhaust, seat etc, etc....... I took her for her first "stroll" on Saturday and all was well loads of power, quick acceleration.......was very chafed with myself for a job well done... :D:D:D...

Enjoy a bit of clueless spannering but generally make things worse, not too bad at polishing though! Anyone got any recommendations for a garage or mechanic in the Newport/Pontypool area? The obvious big boy is South Wales Superbikes in Newport, been in there a few times but never actually...

Have still to change my rear tyre on my RD-07a, which is now rapidly becoming a racing slick. Fancy trying the Tourances this time, as they have fairly good reviews. Trouble is suppliers in Manila have the front size but not the rear, they do have the 150 beast, would it be safe to fit it...

I may be moving house soon and would like to keep my existing email address. I contacted my ISP (Pipex) whom I’m quite happy with and with whom I intend to stay with and spoke to a couple of geezers about this who both seemed pretty clueless about this but who both vaguely mentioned it might be...

Apologies for this one, it's probably really simple. Under front braking my RD04 seems really snatchy at low speeds, possibly its just not as noticeable at higher speeds. It's sorta intermittent, and if stopped, when I pump the lever there seems to be varying amounts of resistance. I'm a bit...

Followed this Forum for about a month. You guys could rebuild the World. Being a newbie Im hoping I can impose on anyone who has fitted a centre stand to a RD04 model. Ive got the stand partially fitted, but not 100% sure which way up the springs should be, and totally clueless as regards the...
