No doubt this subject has been covered before ,and i know some of you have restored bikes with imported parts from the US so maybe you could clarify a few points.Your experience and problems experienced would be a great help.

i'v come across a cast iron fireplace that will go just right with my woodburner but..... the fireplace opening is a little narrow for my burner to fit. it needs about half an inch coming off each side, thought about using a angle grinder but don't think i could cut it perfectly straight, would look terr...
My RA is fooked despite renewing the battery. Anyway does anyone have one for sale at a bargain price I don't need any leads or chargers or memory cards, just the unit. Need it for next weekend if possible. Cheers
Hi all, I was just reliving some distant memories of bimbling along big sections of the Ridgeway, and wondered which lane/lanes or general areas of Devon offered something close to it. I'm after nice long open sections with as little tarmac as possible. (Relaxed bimble not a sweaty technical) Now I...
Just a gentle reminder ladies & Gents. The runs for tomorrow are sorted, thanks run leaders and the local members who are coming along, time to show those rock hard northerners what granite tastes like eh? Seems like we have quite a crowd coming to the Dolphin for a pie & a pint tomorrow, (sat...

A painful to watch illustration of how not to reverse in the lanes I could have gone back a hundred yards to save the car reversing twenty, and if I had known how long it would take I most certainly would have done so, rather than star...

I have just come back from Spain. Dave and myself followed the river Ebro for a total of 1200 miles. Nearly all of that was off road. The going ranged from wide loose stone and gravel tracks to mountain goat territory (imagine 60 miles plus of up and down Tally Ho thats around lake Caspe). It was 600 miles d...

We ended up with 21 trail bikes, 9 quads, 5 trials cars and one outfit. 93 special needs people turned up and with their family members and careers we gave rides to over 150 people. We received £760 in donations from those...
The smell of pine needles and wild garlic assaulted my sense of smell. The noise of the big KTM's assaulted my eardrums. The view before me was absouloutly stunning! It could only mean another day out on the trails with Taurus Trax was taking place. As we thundered up the mountain trail swooping alon...

At that time it was a relativley cool 26c.I was meeting Chris Pascoe of Tau...

I've recently been talking about getting another 2 stroke (used to have a KTM200EGS a good few years ago) and used to find that a fantastic little bike. So interestingly around the same I'm looking for one, (me and her) decide its time I moved upto Goodrington. So I say "sod it" I'll get a...
