Thanks guys

Hi, I need a new chain and sprocket for my Yamaha Thundercat (600cc). I'm confused about which one to buy as there seems to be heavy weight, and other types available. I usually do less than 3k a year and mainly use the bike for commuting. I don't mind spending a little more if it means I get a better quality product. Please can someone recommend me one? Thanks

Thanks guys. I like the look of those pilot tyres, may give them a go. No I don't really go about like a loon as I don't fancy ending up as jam on the road

Hi all I need new tyres for my Yamaha Thundercat 600. Any recommendations? I never take it on the track (and am never likely to). Also my MOT advisory was that the rear tyre valve stem is slightly damaged, should I get this sorted before I get them fitted? Many thankies

Hi all, Just asking for your help please. I took my bike for its MOT and they pointed out some of the LEDs on the indicators are not working. What do I do? Can I buy replacement LEDs or do I have to buy a whole new thing? I appreciate this is probably a very common/easy thing but I am, to conform to an age old stereotype: a) a girl and b) know nothing about/have no interest in mechanics. Thank you

And Colin, I saw someone on tv yesterday holding their breath for over 9 minutes, I could see how far I can get in 9!

I will try and force it in then. Show it who's boss

Hi everyone. Wondered if you could help me out with my new helmet? I bought it recently and am having trouble with it fogging up. It came with two plastic bits which I think are the things that stop it fogging. My old helmet came with it already fitted and I never had a problem. My new one didn't have them fitted, and there are no instructions. It doesn't seem to be as easy as simply snapping it in, because the space where they fitted on my old helmet is pretty non-existance and non-flexible on my new one. I don't want to damage it! Can anyone help please? Hopefully the pictures will give you an idea.

It's narrower but has larger plastic lumps on the fitting if that makes sense? http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f200/ashfan83/DSCF2042.jpg And just a piccy of my new lid cos it's cool http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f200/ashfan83/DSCF2045.jpg

Everyone will do it at one stage, they are heavy after all! Don't worry about it.

Yes I still pop up from time to time! Looking for another bike so if you hear of any 600 sports bikes for sale let me know We'll have to do the Chalet again one day...

Is that you Ducati Paul?! Scouse Paul? Did you nuke your Duke?

Hiya, only just seen your reply. If I remember correctly it was me that told you about this forum in the first place 'stalker boy'! I know someone local that knows about bikes so they will probably be my first port of call, but thankyou for the offer. Do you have a bike atm? Clashfanpointlessyoutubevideos83

Charged it up again today, tried it with the reserve on as someone suggested, still turning over but not wanting to start. Gonna get more fuel in it, and in the mean time keep the battery topped up, next plan is to get someone who actually knows about bikes to look at it, I can't even get the bloody fairings off!
