Ride out to Bunyip State Park, the other day, Gembrooke Victoria. Tracks just opened, no work done on them yet and all pretty rutted, but that just made it more fun and challenging. Pretty dry overall, but still found a few muddy patches. 26 degrees and overcast with a gentle breeze, pretty good condit...

An excellent article I just read on Adventure Rider - see here There is an excellent explanation of the different types of Loctite available. I had no clue that the green "wicking" solution existed let alone how cleverly it works! Brian

Got a DMC Pro Quiet Exhaust for sale. Its a straight through and is fairly loud. A nice weight saving over the original and will open the bike up a bit. Its a bit scruffy looking and at some point the sign has been dented, so i undid the rivets with a view to straighten it out and re-apply. Its just been tight...

After putting everything back together and attempting to start it all it would do is crank with an occasional small pop back through the air filter. After ensuring that my flywheel was TDC on the single up and down line i removed the c...

I can take the headlight cowl off and pull the connection that connects to the speedo and plug it back in and it works but when I put the headlight cover back on and turn the ignition off and back on and it will...
Google translator. I think it's a carburetor. After being tipped to the left (I have not topped the right one yet) I can not run the foot of the engine. I do not have an electric starter. It is only after about 15-20 minutes that the motor can be started. Such a mystery. What is going on? Thank you.
Steve H (a member of this new forum who lives a few miles away from me in sunny Exmouth, Devon) and I each bought a 325cc big bore kit from Thumper Racing for our TTRs in 2010. I read about the 325cc kits years ago and my own view is that a 350cc 4-stroke e/start would be a pretty much ideal trail bike but you go...
