I've just sold my africa twin and rang Carole Nash to cancel my insurance. I have six weeks remaining on the policy that I paid for up front last year. I was informed that there is a 50 pound cancellation charge, I expected the cancellation charge to be more than they owe me, as the telephone...

G'day Gents and Ladies, I am after some advice regarding welding a crack between the 2 exhaust valve seats on a XR600RF. A brief history of the XR and a bit of a personal introduction given this is my first (oops second) post here. I am the 2nd owner of this lovely old 1985 XR600 and have...

Hello all, Just a quick introduction. I'm Louis and I have always had bikes, the most recent of which is a 1993 XR600R. From a young age I have done motocross and trials riding and thought I'd have a go at this green laning business! I set out to buy an XR400 but couldn't refuse the 600, with...

I'm annoyed and I need some sound advice please guys; Thursday evening, sitting stationary in Earls Court traffic, I was hit from behind by a scab cab. He hit me hard enough to lift myself and my twin off the ground, so the back wheel was free spinning and my feet were off the tarmac...

After trying to walk in London in the rain yesterday I propose a new legislative programme: Nobody be allowed an umbrella without first taking a theory and practical test. All newly qualified umbrella users to have the size of their umbrella restricted for the first two years. Anyone accused...

My daughter has grown out of her Duchinni gear. She's 14 but not that big (163 cm or just over 5' 4"), but these are just too small. Probably suit a big aged 10 year old to a normal 12 year old up to about 5' I reckon. All waterproof, and includes zip-out lining. All in good condition and...

Had my head down lately, having a bit of a clearout of the garage.... Sadly sold my much loved NC30 to release some funds but not before I had clapped eyes on a cheaper, in need of a "little fettle & tlc" version :rolleyes: The chance of a 'ickle road trip was too much to turn down :D With V...

hi all. a intermittent problem on my 2001 dommie. sometimes after a long run where it gets really hot, it will refuse to start. its almost as if there is no spark as it will just turn over without any hint of starting. it starts immediately by bump starting so i presume not an engine problem. i...

Hey all. Well having been made an offer too good to refuse, I'm now the owner of an XR4 and having ridden the only couple of tracks I know about in my area, I need more!:blob7: So the question is, has anyone got any good places I can take my new toy? Bolton doesn't seem to be the most off-road...

Hey guys, It's been a couple of weeks now that I picked up the Varadero, and yes I'm still blown away by it and actually go the long way home to get more time aboard. However thats not why I'm posting this. As I commented on an earlier post, the dealer threw in a 'Scala rider teamset pro'...

Whilst mubbling away to myself in the street the other day I realised I am getting old and have no idea about modern pop culture. My list is as follows; 1) I don't like nightclubs or crowded bars. They're too noisy. You cannot hear the people you are with so you end up having to shout to have a...

Yeah, I know, why would I ask a motorbike forum for legal advice? Well I know there are some qualified people on here and I know I can trust advice from you (well, maybe most of you!) Sky broadband installed end of March. 12 April I noticed an error on the modem/router and PC, smartphone and...

Hi, I am planning to go into Oman for a couple of days with some friends who ride BMW 1200GS. Will I have a problem keeping up with them on the motorway at 140Kph fully loaded with standard gearing. What gearing is suitable for high speed motorway & mountain gravel tracks. I refuse to let the...

For the 500, FIAT has come up with an 875cc twin, with 85bhp and a staggering 145Nm of torque at just 1900 revs (and it's petrol!). In a four seater car, it manages 68mpg and 106mph. I have always been told that if we wanted economy in bikes, we would have to put up with a fraction of the...
