Little spin out today, the lanes were looking decidedly bushy and brambley! Had to put a load of branches down on the infamous Cosmore drove to get through. There are some natural springs next to the Cosmore drove and all the run off tends to come down and make several big lakes on the lane! Bike was looki...
Took the bike out for a potter around yesterday and enjoyed the sunshine. Ended up heading out of Plymouth via Tamerton and down to Lopwell Damn to cross over there, but the tide was to high at the time. Ended up going around the road way to Bere Ferris via a few light lanes and then did the beach road run. Po...
My bike is running rich, as it splutters a lot on WOT. I have ran it with air box lid removed and it runs a lot better. Main jet is a 147, can anyone recommend what size main jet to change to? exhaust is a CRD open pipe. Is there a point changing pilot jet as it runs ok on low revs. Many thanks.

Hi all, got a lowered 250 for my G/F to ride on our annual week trip to the Ainsa area of the Pyrenees but now she has taken the only logical way to make it even lower and lighter than I could whilst retaining electric start - swap it for a KTM Freeride! So now I use it for commuting in Bristol and trail riding i...
