THEB455INATOR, 10 March 2013 17:43

I'm coming up to 16  and I'm looking for my first bike. Of course it has to be 50cc but the choices are nerve wrecking. Questions haunt me such as which bikes are reliable? Will it suit my needs? Am I going to look a complete burke on it? I am looking to spend up to around £2,000 on a ...

I enjoyed reading the article “The ten best and five worst biking royals” on your page. However, I assume you have missed one of the Royalties with a great passion for motorbikes. Mohamdreza Pahlavi was the last king of Iran who had a great passion for Motorbikes along with his family. Have a look at the following: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad_Reza_Pahlavi

I decided to customise my Royal Enfield Bullet 500 into a bobber style with a meagre budget of less than a grand. I did everything from the engine rebuild to the respray and artwork on the tank.

My new Suzuki Inazuma

Red Rider, 14 December 2012 05:00

I put up my Yamaha YBR125 for part exchange to get my hands on the new Suzuki Inazuma 250 and from the moment I pulled away from the showroom and onto the busy high street I knew my 17 mile commute to work was going to be excellent. The machine is a complete pleasure to ride, even through the breaking in ...

The battery sits where the centre stand was. I used imitation ...

Along with hundreds of other bikers, HOC members from Oxford, Cambridge, Beds, North London, North Downs, Reading, Northants, MK and West London branches went to Duxford Museum on Remembrance Sunday. We went to pay our respects and do the very least we can, by simply standing together in silence for two minutes and remembering. Beautiful in its simplicity.

I am from Austria. I have built a replica of Norick Abe´s 1999 YZR500 based on a Yamaha RD500 engine.
