Ok the summers on it's way and now it's time to start testing tires for our trip. Were looking for a tyre that will allow us to go "off road" as well as give us good speed and comfort and good wear on the road. obviously full knoblies are a no no, but suggestions (if deemed suitable) will be lane...
Mr Justin Gibbs, at Gibbs Performance, Saltash - charges just £2 to a fit a tyre to a loose wheel. Also sells his tyres at a very competative rate. Last weekend I got a MT43 rear fitted to a loose wheel, from Pro-tyre in Plymouth. Costing me £71. Justin could of done it for £55 Just spreading the word .....
I think I started riding the lanes last November. It was a real challenge and loads of fun, but now its dry the challenge seems to have disappeared, in fact I did 192-015 on my Triumph Scrambler (trail wings), just to see if it could be done, and it was too easy. So unless you increase the speed (against TRF...
Hi all, I'm in discussion with a bloke in Burnley (up-country you know) and he has a tiger (885 not tiny cub) possibly with my name on it. Has anyone got a spare van? fancy a day out ? (well you never know) or if I were to hire a van to plonk it in the back (he will let me have it for £300 less without an MoT) what kin...
Just a shot in the dark really but I wondered if anyone had one of these leads for talking to the ECU in VW, Audi & Seat vehicles. I've got hold of some software and would like to test it out to see how usefull it might be. The lead looks like this, Serial [img]http://www.andywhittaker.com/Portals/0...

Hi folks, I'm looking for a spare rear wheel for my DRZ 400, in good useable condition. Anyone got one they'd be interested in selling? I'd also be willing to buy a pair of front and rear if you have both and don't want to split them. My bikes an '03 DRZ S, but as far as I know any DRZ wheel will fit. Many than...
My nephew, Fabian has been jumping to much and ruined the rear shock on his CRF230. Does anyone have one for sale? -- Edited by MikeT on Thursday 7th of April 2011 07:14:52 PM

Do you know ayone who makes a digital speedo,with a low fuel warning light incorparated. It seems that the trail tech /acewell e.t.c all have a level indicator gauge, which is not what I want. My sherco is fuel injected and I just want a setup as the original was,in that when the fuel gets to reserve/l...
Renewal time, I get a renewal letter, a years NCB and 3 points higher than last year, same price as last year. So I go onto compare the Meerkats, they are more expensive, I try confused.com, they are £70 cheaper with the same insurer. I ring the insurer, was told that she cannot match the online discount t...

Ok i know its an open invitation to have a multiple answer to this thread but here goes....... I've recently fitted a new o'ring 520 'D.I.D" Ktm 450 on 13 front teeth 48 rear (shouldn't make much difference with gearing) Yep i know its a pretty full on bike but i ride steady (90% of the time ) I've onl...
Austin Vince reckoned a Serow, TTR or DRZ ie Air cooled with long service intervals electric and kick start (try and bump a bike in sand!) and light enough to lift on a pick up truck. Seems to me there's a lack of choice for 100kg plus riders who want a motor with more grunt for the lanes and road sections tha...
Regular readers may have seen that Dave, our East Devon bike repair guru, has undergone a major heart operation recently. The bloke that works for him (Mark) 'phoned today & told me that Dave is now out of intensive care and into a side ward. He has also started complaining so it sounds as though h...
Well Troy is already making the CFR70 look small and to be honest at nearly 11 I want to get him started on a full manual rather than his semi-auto he has right now. Most 2-smoke 65s seem a little small so it looks like an 85 small wheel might be next. I'm a little concerned about some of these being far to f...
