PHEW

The police have just contacted me to say that they have found my bike, they have cut the ignition cable to try and hotwire it but... that's a minor. My mechanics on his way to pick it up now.

I'm having visions of seing someone riding up the road on it and clothelining the motherfucker. People are just lowlifes, this is not helping my faith in humanity

This morning, to my horror, I left the house to find that my 1997 ZZR250 was no longer there. It would appear some lowlife cunt has stolen it. It has a bright orange custom paint job, rego number is HI153

This is a real long shot but, if you are in melbourne, and are offered a cheap bike, parts ...

Thanks for all the replies. Gassit have the bike now., I prefer to get it done on insurance as a $500 excess is not far off the cost of me repairing it on the cheap. That way, I get the respray, fairing fixed properly etc too.

It's a contentious one as to blame. I didn't see who did but know who ...

Right, extremely sad me, but it could have been worse. I moved house at the weekend, only for somebody to reverse into my bike and knock it over against a wall, which it slid down, on the first night.

) ZZR250 suggested a single bubble windscreen for better acceleration.

Any body got any thoughts on this, or know where I can get one from. I've struggled looking online..

Thanks

Just checked what I have now, they are already BT45, and I haven't slid off any corners yet!!

I saw some recently, I believe it was on ebay!!

Hi All,

Going to be ready for some new tyres soon but... I don't have a clue which ones.

I ride daily, about 15km to work. I can open up for a few kms of that but the rest is traffic which means I have no time to warm the tyres up, which means i need something pretty sticky from cold. I currently ...

It's only 2 bolts and a spring, so you can re-attach in 2minutes if you need to do work on the bike, lube the chain etc

Apparently when you lean alot the centre stand can dig in, lift your back wheel off the ground and you lose traction...

Depends how aggressively you corner!

Cheers Ry.

Get that center stand off your bike before you do somersaults round a corner!

Ditto, I just bought one and would like to fiddle with her inners a bit, clean carbies etc.. But I'm new to bikes and don't know what's what yet. Thanks
