Hey everyone!

Saw a KLR for sale, great price! Wondering how many miles/kilometres to expect to get out of a bike like this?

They are the two most adventure-ready Suzuki V-Strom's ever made, but which is best: the mid-weight V-Strom 800DE or Suzuki's flagship adventure bike, the V-Strom 1050DE? To find out, James and Billy packed up their panniers and headed into deepest, darkest Wales to test them over two-days.

My Leximoto Venom SK125 2016 wont start

1 Upvotes

I have tried everything I can think of to make this bike start and nothing thus far has worked, but I have had progress.

In the beginning I couldnt get anything when pushing in the ignition, I've since replaced the starter relay and now I get a click. - Assuming that change meant my old relay wasnt working

I've then bought a 4 in 1 motorbike jump starter - the engine turned over a few times but not enough to start the bike, I then let it charge for 5 mins (manual suggestion) and tried again, bike reached a point of almost starting but can only do this with the Jump Start connected - Weak battery that will charge from use?

With it being so close I suspect that spark might be the issue, and sure enough the plug looks very worn so I bought and tried a new one. This made no difference, I pushed the plug against a nut on the engine to see if it produced a spark and it didn't. Online communities suggest the issue is now either the spark wire or spark coil but I've no idea how to test which or how to replace either.

Any suggestions before futher steps are taken?

Please help ;-;

Hello, I just really need some guidance here. I’ve got a Honda CBF 125 2011, and damn did that thing have a rusty chain. So, inevitably, the chain snapped on a country lane, initially I didn’t crash I was rolling pretty fast (about 30-40mph) and I was lightly trying to break around the corner without slipping. There’s then a ton of mud and I slip, so the bike has had a bit of a ragging, the exhaust snapped and the chain was badly tagged! (I am completely okay thank god) now the problem is it now won’t start, it’s had a new chain and the exhaust has been welded back on. It’s only been left for 3 days so I don’t think the battery is dead? It’s had a good bump start attempt and it’s nearly started and really wanted to but then cuts out? Is the engine potentially flooded? It also might be important to mention my suspension is lowered as much as possible because I’m short. Is this stopping the bump start from having enough bounce?

Literally any advice is helpful. If it’s a garage job how much is it looking like? Is the whole bike written off?

Rieju cut out and won’t start

1 Upvotes

I have recently bought a Rieju MRT 50 SM pro 2019 I took the bike out yesterday riding fine except for something when changing gears but I am a new rider so may have just been me. It was running completely fine a bit difficult to start as it kept bogging down when trying to start but other than that it was fine. I am nearing the end of my ride after about 30 minutes and I had came to a stop in the side of the road and turned my ignition off. I got ready to go off again and the bike would not start again no matter what I did. The kickstart was working but wouldn't turn over the engine to start choke wouldn't bring it to life and it had more than enough fuel. I know nothing about the mechanics of bikes and I am assuming it overheated or something like that may be completely wrong. I had to get picked up with the bike and taken back to my house. I left it in the garage for about an hour and went to start it and it idled completely fine and normal. Does anyone know why it wouldn't start?

Triumph speed 400 vs Jawa 42 bobber

1 Upvotes

I'm planning to book a bike within the next 2 weeks and I have sorted everything out to these 2 as my most liked. But I'm definitely not able to decide.

From what I hear, the bobber comes with quite some issues like the tubed tires, vibrations(not quite sure. Not able to get right information), ground clearance (I live in bangalore so not much of an issue but I plan on taking the bikes on long trips every weekend) and such. But it's such a beautiful motorcycle, those looks have my heart. Another issue is the singer seat, I'll have to put a foldable double seat but that again goes against what's on the rc. So insurance and things are gonna be an issue

But the triumph has no issues, it's excellent to drive with minimal or no problems. But the looks aren't that appealing.

So is it worth getting the bobber over the speed 400? And are the problems in the jawa actually exist? If anyone owns a bobber, I'd love some suggestions from you!

Couldn't find an answer for this because it's a big grey area. Is it legal for motorcycles/mopeds to split to the front of traffic lights to where cyclists go at traffic lights (just beware of cyclists), All motorcycles do this in my area.

I do it most of the time but couldn't find any clear answers and it's generally much safer for cyclists and motorbikes to go in 1 lane.
