Riders of the tier, I have a vintage suzuki temper 1983, it was running smoothly and serviced quite recently. Few months ago, I parked it in the garage, and the battery died. I tired to run it last week with a new battery , it worked well! However, today, I charged the battery, hit the ignition switch. I hear the relay clicking. But no spark. Plug checked, cable checked, battery checked. Fuses checked. What this could be? I tried a different battery, no success. Please drop your wisdom down in the comments. Best

Hello!! I was just wondering how hard or easy it is to replace a chain by yourself. A fellow rider pointed out that mine isn't looking too good, I don't have the most amount of money and i know a mechanic is gonna charge at least $300 minimum. I would love to learn how to work on my own bike but i am a beginner. Does anyone have any experience with it that can give me pointers or advice?? Do i need to replace the sprocket aswell or can i just do the chain? Thank you!!

Sorry I am new to this and I am sure they have a different name. Half helmet, brain bucket....

Attempts to switch on but does not switch on

I live in a state where lane splitting is illegal, but most bikers do it because of the insane traffic. Now old truck guy always moves over for us bikers. And work truck guy as well. But the guy with the new truck or the supped up truck, the one that doesn’t have a scratch on it, the one that you know he never uses his truck to do truck things, this guy with the lift and the balls hanging off the trailer hitch, this guy is always looking to take me out. He hates it when I lane split and honks at me to let me know. I’ve seen new truck guy chase down other bikers as well to yell inaudible shit at them too. What is new truck guy’s problem with bikers? Have any of y’all ever had a problem with new truck guy/supped up truck guy? And if you know new truck/supped up truck guy, tell him to chill, a motorcycle lane splitting shouldn’t make him feel inadequate.

Hey everyone I lost my reset knob for the odometer can someone help me out where to get the right replacement knob please? (European seller needed)

Thank you

Hey so I have a 2022 Honda cbr500r and want to get a quickshifter for it but I have a couple questions. First, the quickshifter cuts ignition when pressure is detected on the shifter so it takes load load the transmission and can shift while still on the throttle, but my bike’s shifter doesn’t move at all unless I release the throttle. Do other bikes have this as well where the shifter is solid when on the throttle? Or is it just a “safety mechanism” on these newer Hondas?

Why do so many young men who can't ride for shit, seem to delight in posting videos of them demonstrating this fact, on social media?

There are so many examples, but my favourite is the show-off who 'gets the knee down' on a left-hand bend (in the US, so of course, reverse this for places where we drive on the left), whilst his wheel is inches from the white line and the top ⅓ of his body is over on the opposite side of the road.

Let me see your GZ250 build!! Looking for inspiration!

Buying my first motorcycle to work on, it needs some love and willing to learn and grow building it and making it mine for riding.

I came across an FB reel and checked the comments and found this comment. The guy admitted that he that he purposely swerved last minute to take the biker that he believed was tail gating him. I understand that the biker was possibly tailgating him but to retaliate in a such way where someone’s life is lost is not ok. The dude sounds proud about it as well. What do you guys think? Can this be a criminal charge?

18M here, beginner rider and getting my endorsement in a month, then bike right after. (SPORT BIKE)

Question is, whats the perfect beginner/starter bike, as well as what sort of budget should I be looking at including the bike itself as well as gear, and potential repair fees since I would like to get it used. Anything I should look out for as well?

I have heard good things about an R3, CBR, or Ninja under 300cc, can you confirm?

Looking for general advice! Thank you!

So moving away from what bike should I get, the crashes, and the routine stuff what gear do you think is essential for riding you never see as part of the normal gear list? It can be accessories to things you wear, even down to maintenance items. For me it would be either having a bike gps or some type of phone mount.

I remember seeing one on someone and it looked strong.

Something very similar to a captain boot but a captain boot looks slim and skinny but the one the guy had on looked beefier. I think it was HD brand but I checked their site and didn’t see anything I liked.

When I say beefy I’m thinking similar to what you might see a fireman wearing but obviously not that huge just beefy.

I’m just looking for raw leather boots that would match a leather vest.
