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

Got the new Muse album for Christmas, keep listening to M-m-m-m-m-madness, it's addictive!

A passport holder that looks exactly like the passport anyway. Pointless! Although they did redeem themselves and bought me a Jeremy Hoye charm bracelet

That's quite a collection Rider!

I have quite a few hobbies and Ikm constantly wishing there were more hours in the day! I go horse riding every week, run about 4 times a week and ride my bike anything fro 3-6 times a week. Very much an outdoors person, and it doesn't cost you anything to cycle or run once you got the kit I also like walking over the downs but don't get to do it as much as I'd like. Indoors, I like cooking, reading and watching films (LoveFilm is good for that!)

Florence and the Machine. I'm addicted. She's amazing

Why should it be a BH? what does it even mean? A few years ago no-one gave a shit about St George's day...

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.

Second plastic bit that came with new helmet. It's narrower but has larger plastic lumps on the fitting if that makes sense?

Is Diablo 3 an MMO? I quite liked 1&2 just being me and the comp!

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?

I used to play. It is a fun game, but I couldn't possibly spend that much time in front of a computer any more. There's so much more to life!

I went indoor climbing for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I was shitting it, but I actually enjoyed it and felt I'd achieved something when I got to the top of the walls. There was only one I couldn't do and that was a more advanced one that was hanging out so you need more developed muscles and better technique I think. I was scrambling up any way I could, lol! Might do it again one day as my little step-brother seems to love it and none of the olds would have a go, hehe!

I had no idea all the gear was so expensive. The kit was included in the price at the activity centre we went to. But I suppose it's like a lot of things, like biking, once you have the stuff, it'll hopefully last you a while.

Heres mine

Bloody hell! Nice motor.

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?

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!

Lots of ideas floating round here, thankyou everyone. Most of them are probably out of my capability but at least I have a few ideas!
