Im after a trail/enduro bike. £3500 max. Needs to be fairly light. 125kg kerb weight would be a good starting point. I live in Exeter, so preferably within an hours drive. Road ready would be a plus. I have a CRF250 Rally Im willing to swap if that interests you. I value it somewhere between £3-3.5k. Obvi...

Good afternoon, Having got a puncture recently I decided to get a new tyre and innertube. Upon removing the protective tape from the inner rim i noticed some corrosion that i deem unsafe. Time for a new rim. Its an 96 XR400 and i suspect its the original. Do most people send them off? I would be keen to ha...
As mentioned in my recent ride report there is a large tree down at the Southern end of this lane. It is passable if you manhandle the bike over it but it was a struggle and took more than one person per bike
Having been awake at various points throughout the night due to a daughter with a less than best sleeping habit, on each occasion I noted the rain hammering down outside which didn't bode well for our planned day out. The day begun with a rather wet and miserable commute up the A38 to meet Russ at Ivybri...
A couple of weekends ago a small group of us were thwarted by fallen trees at Ashcombe. Regulars will be aware that the locals really don't like us riding this lane, and that fallen trees remain fallen. Most could be squeezed under without too much trouble, but one blocked our way and we got around it by...
Just to let you all know, our new treasurer, Gillian Hall...Gill is now in post. The banking has all been transferred over to her, she has joined the TRF and she has successfully made payments to several of our creditors today. As there has been no banking done over the last few months, if anyone feels th...
Looking for / think I can use. If someone has one but doesn't want to sell etc, for reference. I'm fairly certain the centres of stem and fork tubes are the same as the conventional cartridge set up. (I know they are larger fork tubes) SM yokes have rubber mounts for bars, the feature I'm looking for. Happ...
I went and had a cuppa with my mum this afternoon and we got talking about my grandfather who was a keen motorcyclist. She said, 'I think I have some old photos. I think they are great, so I thought I would share them This is outside a garage in Exeter, does anyone have any idea where it was. They had trav...
Does anyone have any experience of getting their offspring through the A2 test. I know you can just pay someone but the cost is quite high, and most of that seems to be for the bike hire. I have a selection of suitable bikes, an intercom and used to be an instructor with the BMF. The stumbling block could be...

Hi Guys, I have used John T for years in Newton Abbott, unfortunately he is not doing MOT's. Any recommendations for MOT's on trail bikes around Torquay, I know John Tremlett is popular but was looking for somewhere a bit closer if possible. Thanks
Hi All I'm moving house and have nearly every TBM if anybody wants them before they are recycled. I'm based near Topsham if any one wants them for free? Update: Now donated to a new home! -- Edited by JakeP on Thursday 26th of September 2024 09:14:51 AM
