the front tyre has less than 500 miles on it. i think i'm balanced on front and back brakes (probably biased to back if i'm honest. BB3lions, the vibration was there before they balanced the wheel, but no better afterwards, i thought it would eliminate a possible reason for the vibration.

everything checks out tight. both pressures spot on now. wobble/vibration started a few days before balancing was done, thought i would have balancing done just to eliminate one possible reason for it. i'm going to give garage a ring in the morning and see if they will have a quick look. been out on it today and it is running great apart from this vibration at the front end.

any time i can get, to and from work then out again after a cuppa,lol, love it.

i noticed on my way home from work that my bike had a strange vibration, only noticeable at 50mph or more (yes, i can go faster,lmao).so much so my teeth were almost chattering and i was seeing double. seemed to be coming from the front of the bike. nothing to see when i pulled up so gingerly made my way home. i had the front wheel balanced yesterday and the guy said i had a slight buckle but nothing he was concerned about, do you think that is the problem? if it is what can i do about it i have my bike front up at the moment and have spun the wheel, i can see a slight buckle, but really hard to see. any thought if it is this or something else.

hi guys didn't want to start a new thread so saw this one. i was thinking about getting a screen for my suzuki gz marauder, but was wondering if it would reduce my top (no sarky comment please) speed. i'm a big lad and want to use the bike as often as i can until i pass my test. but thought if i add more wind resistance to the bike it would slow it down? or will it help by stopping the wind from hitting me as much? what are your thoughts.

well done guys. can't wait to do mine.

does anyone know if front forks from a 2006 suzuki gz125 marauder k6 will fit a 2004 k3 marauder. thanks guys

now, i have just been out on my bike, got home, thought i would give it a spit and polish. don't ask me why but i ran my hand under the exhaust while it was running and felt it blowing. i looked under and have found a hole. it's about 2 inches from the join (weld), on the larger part of the exhaust (the part that has the baffles in). sorry, i don't know what else to call it. the hole is perfectly round, no signs of rust or other damage and is about 2mm in size. it appears to have been put there deliberately. any ideas guys.

saw these. will they be ok? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3mm-Flashing-Red- ... 1e5c08b51d

i wonder if i can get it wired up to a small led that flashes. what do u think?

lol, i guess it is useless as i looked for the wiring from the light, there is none,lol, i guess it is fake.

i've just noticed on the back mud guard a sticker saying datatool and what looks like a smallbulb?? i assume it's from an alarm system, how do i go about looking to see if it does indeed have an alarm system as i have no fob or anything else to activate it. thanks

thanks guys, i'll have a look for the hyperoptiks. i tried sunglasses, but with the cold, they steam up something rotten.

hi guys. not sure if i'm in the right place. i have a helmet but it has no sun protection, tint etc. any ideas what i can do to reduce glare.
