As the title says, before I decide to go spending 120+ on a new exhaust I thought I would see if anyone here had one lying around that they would be willing to sell as I don't really want to spend that much. It would need to be road legal, preferably with removable baffle and with link pipe.  Thanks

bracechenko that is, after doing cadwell on the 10th. expected to see wheely and knee down shots all over the board!!

Hi Just wanted to ask HUGGER WORTH THE MONEY OR NOT ?

my citroen c4 passed the mot with an advisor that the rear brakes are slightly corroded. i was thinking about putting new discs on,(i have done loads on other cars) but have heard that i have to "wind" the pistons back into the calipers? can i not just push them back in with my trusty pushing in tool? i have seen the winding in tools on ebay (left and right)? and a thing that looks like a chinese puzzle, a alloy block with nipples sticking out in various places :b do i really need to wind them in? :car

Hi all,

I got my Fazer around 3 years ago, been checking this forum out quite often - and finally decided to introduce us (with a bit of encouragement from Chris).

You can find my Fazi here -  I've got a bit of cosmetic damage I need to get sorted (soldering the fairing - builders left mud on the road).

I'm also planning a trip to Alps this August (I would appreciate any suggestions of places to see on the way + German & Austrian Alps)

P.S.

May I suggest an ancient Slavic way of dealing with our lovely British weather  this year - you make a doll - which represents winter - put her on fire & drawn, just to make sure that she never comes back again.

Thomas Scully leaving Manchester Magistrates Court

A serial drink-driver was spared jail after he smashed his car into a teenager and left him for dead in a road.

Thomas Scully, 63, who was more than twice the legal limit, had spent four hours drinking in a pub in Openshaw when he decided to drive home.

Scully had two previous convictions for drink-driving when he crashed into 17-year-old biker Michael Daniels on Ashton Old Road, Openshaw.

But magistrates decided not to send him to prison and instead imposed a suspended sentence.

They heard that Michael was riding a Yamaha 125 bike wearing a helmet, protective clothing and a high-visibility vest during the horror collision in January.

Scully turned right directly into his path, Manchester magistrates’ court was told. Michael was rushed to hospital and almost died when his heart stopped beating during a six-hour operation.

The teenager suffered a broken shoulder and thigh bone and spent two nights in an induced coma, but is now recovering well at home.

Scully, a construction company worker from Halliday Road, Newton Heath, drove off at speed in his VW Bora but was arrested after a witness who saw the crash followed him for more than a mile and managed to remove the keys from the ignition.

The court heard Scully pulled over believing the witness was a police officer.

He pleaded guilty to drink-driving, failing to stop at the scene of an accident and driving without due care and attention.

Scully’s two previous drink-drive convictions were in the 1990s.

He was given a suspended jail sentence of 18 weeks, suspended for 12 months, and banned from the road for two years. Scully was also ordered to complete more than 250 hours of community service by magistrates who said the case was one of the worst with which they had dealt.

Barbara Amuzu, chairwoman of the bench, said: “The young man could have died.”

Richard Andrew, spokesman for the road safety charity Brake said: “Drink-driving is incredibly dangerous and selfish behaviour which shows no concern for the law or for the safety of other road users, and can have devastating consequences.

“Tough sentences are needed where drivers show a reckless disregard for the lives of others. Brake encourages judges and the courts to use the full range of powers available to them for those who flout the law, in order to provide an active deterrent to other drivers from taking such enormous risks.”

Hi there,



on  reading improving suspension the FZS1000, I accidentally stumbled upon an ad that offers R6 shock at a great price.

It is claimed that the bike was driven only 6000 miles, that the owner had'd an accident and decided to sell it in parts.
I have a few questions, so if any good soul to help me.


Of course, first, whether is on the picture what I really need?





How I can verify functionality while unmounted , are the main features preserved and how much?


Any suggestions about dog bones length and damper settings, I am 90 kilos, like to tighten the wrist.


Thanks, if anyone wants free beer in Serbia, please feel free to contact me!
