Hi Guys

Left the bike for a couple of weeks (been super busy since I bought it) and it pissed fuel out of the overflow as soon as I turned the fuel on.

Hi Dougie I don’t have any technical advice for you but I have seen a lot of bikes with their rear end chopped down over the years. Some or them look crap and some look stunning!
I would put a lot of thought into it including making several drawings or even manipulate some photos on “photoshop” or similar programme, If you come up with a stunning…[Read more] -

Hi all here is probably the daftest question ever asked but here goes.
My starter clutch works sometimes when the engine is hot but it doesn’t work when cold. I want to do it before I start to ride the bike as I don’t know its condition and it could be about to damage the engine (I have read the warnings on this site). In the absence of a manual…[Read more] -
