Riding home tonight with the first gale of the season doing its best to unseat me and the rain coming in horizontal my mind turned to riding gear and to what is the ideal waterproof clothing to wear on the bike. I have been messing about with bikes on and o...

I bought this TTR from a mate, for £450, and since getting it home I have found a few faults and noticed missing parts. (Didn't stop me from taking it out and getting it dirty though) It's pretty hard to start due to the long throw of the kickstart lever, or possibly even low compression. It needs to be jus...

There have been a number of on-forum and offline queries about smoking engines in the last few days so I thought it might be worth putting my thoughts down here for you guys either to shoot down in flames or improve upon If the smoke is the only symptom and the engine isn’t rattling then there is a very goo...
