I was at Rivington Barn early this morning and was chewing the fat with some of the lads there and then I thought, "WTF am I doing here talking a load of shite to bikers who never put any miles on their bikes"??


So off I trundled to have me a nice day out. Went exploring Derbyshire, over the Snake Pass and ended up having a lovely Sunday Roast at the Strines Inn, Sheffield. Great day out!

after a routing clean found i have a loose wire just inside by the side-stand , i no it not the main wire as that still connected , but a smaller wire which i cant seem to find where it goes( or where it screws into ) any help a bonus

have noticed my fazer has a loose wire down by the main stand , it not the main wire but a smaller 1 , cant find the hole it screws into , anybody with any ideas where abouts it goes

Sounds like a daft question, but I'll ask anyway. On all my bikes in past years engine & gearbox have had their own oil. No mention of gearbox lube in my 2008 FZ6 handbook though. Does it share engine oil, is it packed with grease, or what? Enlightenment would be appreciated!

Noticed the cost of Shell unleaded has been steadily rising the last couple of weeks-it was 137.9ppl yesterday in Birmingham. If I was a cynic I might think it was to exploit the late summer bank holiday motorists/riders, but they wouldnt do a thing like that would they? :'(

Hello last week end i bought a 2000 fazer 600 on ebay .As i live on Skye i got the bus to Glasgow to pick up the bike.I got back into biking a few years ago with a honda ntv600 which if you don't know is a deauvill without half a ton of plastic . Yesterday i picked up the fazer and rode back to Skye , what a fantastic bike this is lots of power very good handling and very comfortable , i got home with the a big smile and no aches or pains.

Yes , Yamaha satelite team Monster Yamaha tech 3 (French) love em :lol


Two riders now confirmed as Cal Crutchlow and Bradley Smith


Both riders are showing form,,Bradley obviously has a lot to learn. More reason to trek around europe to see some races


Who is going away next year, to Assen, Aragon,Barcelona,LeMans, or anywhere else. i shall get one or two trips in, riding over there is brill.

Has anyone tried the progressive springs on the market ?

I guess starting soft and progressively getting harder (ooh Mrs Jones)


I presume all bikes are sold with a rear spring strong enough for two up or the big hairy fat bastard :lol ,, but what about light weights?, do we have to be bounced around?
