Hi guys been getting bike ready for mot when i noticed that when i pull rear wheel towards the chain side of bike my chain starts to sag  now my question is ---is this normal or do my swingarm bearings need replaced as this looks to be where the play is ?--Thanks for any info /advice-

Just yesterday 49 people in Christchurch lost their lives to a hateful white supremacist.  Brenton Tarrant spoke of “invaders” and that “they will never replace our people”



Donald Trump’s banal response was extending his “thoughts and prayers”.  Something the Republicans and their NRA backers do a lot of these days – 56 mass shootings in the USA so far this year.


So who is to blame?  I say anyone who promotes a them and us narrative, not just Stephen Christopher Yaxley or Theresa May with her Go Home vans and hostile environment or Donald Trump hailed by the shooter as a symbol of “renewed white identity and common purpose”


Queensland senator Fraser Anning blames the Muslims for their own slaughter “Does anyone still dispute the link between Muslim immigration and violence?” he stated. 



So there you have it whether the terrorist is white or brown, you can blame the Muslims. 



So I post this to remember the 49 dead in Christchurch, innocent people worshiping in their Mosque.  But in remembering we must ask why.  We can say never again, but there is little point unless we are all prepared to call out and condemn extremism.

Hi all


My son has just brought a 09 plate FZ1 and I have seen it today for the 1st time. 10k miles and very clean


The clutch action seems heavy and a bit sticky at the lever. Is that the norm or is there something amiss perhaps. I can't comment yet how it rides but will tomorrow!! (if he lets me have a go)


Bw

My old ass needs a better seat,keep getting pain in my right cheek and my back :'( any recommendations, The seat is 16 years old so choices either


reupholster or replace..unless you know better....don't mind someone building seat up as my feet easily touch the floor..

The bike’s been off the road now since November… the first winter it’s ever had without being used. Hadn’t planned it this way, lack of spare time has delayed engine replacement and always hoping I’d find the time meant I’d left the battery in it.
Retrieved it this morning and was surprised to find it still registered 12V and, given a boost, will doubtless turn an engine over as willingly as ever. Those original GS units were damn fine batteries.








Sadly it may need replacing soon, the jolting from 200k of crappy roads has worn through the casing and it’s starting to leak nasties. I’ll try to patch it: obviously want to keep what is probably the world’s highest mileage FZS600 battery going a bit longer :rollin but the end is in sight.

i have just taken this off a bike I have just brought the bike had only covered just under 3k so it is in excellent condition it will have to be collected from Crich Derbyshire down to size  £200

I do a lot of work on my missus family home for her brother who works away in Canada, and keep a youtube video log for him so he can see how its going. looking back through some old ones I found a clip of my old mt-01, which I used to demonstrate how big the base was for the workshop I was building for him at the time. wish I hadnt watched it, I really miss that bike now, it was a lovely old thing. https://youtu.be/ovpeb6QmOUg
