Evening all
I stuck a pair of the lovely Ohlins springs in the front and kept the oil the same so as to change one thing at a time.
I'm now ready to change the oil for something thicker.
Anyone got any experience of this and any advice/tips etc.
Ta much, Fluke

Happy birthday to my MT registered 2 years ago today. Its still on the original fuel map and CCT and still puts a big grin on my face every time I go out on it.
Hi,
Me and the guys (about 8-10 of us), are looking to fly to Europe for some track time, preferably mid-week.
Since we're flying from overseas, we'll want to come for three days (one day isn't worth the effort), and we'll require motorcycle rentals. I guess we can share a bike between each...
i have done about 2000 miles now but as soon as i hit about 1600 i had two occasions where the engine would stall for no reason. took it to the dealer and they didn't have a clue.

Spent a bit of time Saturday while it was raining outside cutting out the useless plastic ridge to open up the underseat storage for the disc lock & making a rear mud flap to help protect the rear shock from some of the road crud.
Hi to all,
Have I done the right thing?

So after a little while of killing...
Hi all, I'm picking up a brand new orange mt09 next week. Coming from a Honda hornet 900, I can't believe how light this bike is!
I will be modding the bike over time if anyone has suggestions?
Collected my Race Blu Tracer on 09/03/15 from Padgetts of Batley but only managed 400 miles so far!
Chopped in my Suzuki DL1000 which I'd had for eight years, still adjusting to how light the Tracer feels.
Had to have a triple this time as I've done in-line fours and twins, just love the...
Can anyone tell me why my bike wont start first flick of the switch when starting for the first time in a day or after a considerable period of time? For example, go to head to work in the morning and hit the start switch. Bike wont start first go however will always start on second attempt...

Since our government decided to quadruple the amount of photo-vans starting this year, it is time to get either a laser jammer or a number plate flipper.
How reliable are these jammers? or should I just stick with the flipper, since there is plenty of time to react before you pass the van and...
