  1. Choppers and Showbikes Forum
    So, back in december I bought this chopper project for $4k, and it seemed like it was mostly decent, though it wasn't titled, and hasn't been since the bike was built. I received a bunch of receipts for miscellaneous parts such as bearings, headlight, brake pads, wheels and tires, but nothing...

    Hi everyone, I ride a 1995 CB400 Superfour. When purchased in Jan this year, it only had ~16k km on the clock, & having been sat in people's gardens & garages for 28 years, it's had a lot of issues: clogged carbs, seized brakes, failed regulator, rubbers disintegrating, the list goes on. I've...

    Hello I had a suzuki gn125 that was sitting for a few months with a blown engine, i'm new to motorcycles and am not very mechanically experienced. I decided to buy a new 125 engine and swap it as it seemed to be the cheapest and easiest way to fix it. I've swapped the engines and recharged the...

    Hey fellow riders, First time I have ever written in a forum but have used them many time to fix my bikes. I was riding home yesterday, doing 80mph and engine cut off completely. The oil light had started coming on recently when I use the brakes. (I figured this was due to the level being...

    I recently pitched a go kart and it had a scooter engine that the previous owner doesn’t know anything about and no branding on it so I was wondering if anyone could identify the engine because I need to order parts for it before I can get it running. Thanks for any help

    Hello, Not had a bike for a few years (okay, 20 years!) and wanted a little runabout just for local bits and bobs etc. Love the look of the retro scramblers by Hanway/Mutt/etc., but I was a bit wary of the relative lack of reliability and quality issues I'd read about. So I set out to try and...

    Hi all, Maybe i'm just paranoid or i'm not used to mechanical vs hydraulic lifters, but when I hit the accelerator hard on my GS550ES around 4100ish rpm, the bike makes a fairly loud rapping/tapping sound that doesn't really sound like normal valve noise. This lasts all the way up to 6500ish...

    Hello everyone. I've recently purchased a used 2019 Honda CB300R. It was pretty much brand new (only had 60km on it), and prior to me purchasing it, the owner was kind enough to get a safety certificate for it, which it passed. Now about 140km later, there seems to be an issue with starting...

    Hello! 2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS, when accelerating everything is smooth and sounds sexy. No issues when flooring it. When holding a steady speed the engine sounds like brrrnrnrnrnrnnrnrnrrnrnrnr, like the throttle quickly kicking on and off, rather than a nice constant brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

    Hi, I'm Ruchir and my ride is a TVS Apache RTR 160 4v, I've been riding this motorcycle for a year but am experienced in riding since the last 7 years. I know a 160cc may not sound like alot but here in India where people usually ride in shorts and flip-flops it's plenty power as 150cc to 200cc...

    I have a small 200cc motorcycle. The thing is I am not in close proximity with my bike(due to the lockdown). I have been feeding the bike with a company recommended: Synthetic Oil - TVS TRU4 Synthetic 10W 30. The oil hasn't been changed in like 10 months. For those 10, I had used the bike for...

    When I start my engine(TVS Apache) there is this strange clung coming within the transmission area, even in Neutral! I have done about 10k kms with no major problems. But this, this bugs me, almost seems like the piston rings are rubbing against the inner cylinder wall? Or the carburetor is not...

    Hey all. Would anyone happen to have a digital copy of a shop manual for a Honda XL 125 from 1974. Thanks.

    Got a Derbi Senda 50cc 2013 moped which has a whining noise when I drive. I think the whining noise comes from either the transmission or the clutch. The sound does not seem to affect how the bike works, it shifts well, pulls well, works just fine. The sound comes when I drive the bike, but also...

    Excessive knocking on my 2008 Suzuki C50. Sounds like valves or chains. While on the throttle in low RPM (gear slightly under load) the bike will dip in power (almost like backfiring). Medium to hard throttle, no issues at all. ...So new fuel, 2 valve adjustments, oil, plugs, you name it - no...

    Hi i have a 1963 honda trail 55. When i kick it over there is spark and fuel but wont start so i moved to compression. I realized that there is air blowing out of the carb. So i thought it would be the valves. After some work i found a great deal online and replaced the cylinder head and cover...

    Hey guys, New here, thanks for having me. I recently bought a suzuki GZ250 (2005) from a guy who owns a riding school. A few scratches here and there but I tested it twice and it ran fine both times. Let it sit in my garage for a couple days, wouldn't start last night. Sounded like it was...
