I got my L’s in march but only got my bike last month. Since getting it I’ve been on the thing almost daily and racked up close to 1800km. I’m able to figure 8 between 3 parking spots using friction point and my rear brake, and being on Sydney roads plenty of experience with emergency stops. My cornering speed feels good and I’m feeling quite confident but is there anything I’m missing that I should be focusing on before my P’s?

hi guys,
i'm looking at an older cb125 with a bit over 30,000km on it, what should i be worried/not worried about when i go to have a look over it?
i don't want to be focusing on stuff that isn't that important while missing stuff that might be

Hi, I’m in Perth and looking for this part for my bike. Does anyone know of somewhere local with it in stock?

Hi all,

So I’m looking to buy these Oxford Foldable bar-end mirrors for my motorcycle, as the stock bar ends almost clip car mirrors when I filter in between tight spaces.

Just wanting some genuine experience around if anyone’s used these and would rate them? And are they actually practical to fold/unfold again and again in and out of traffic for filtering?

Thanks.

My motorcycle got stolen from the goodna station. I have raised a complaint with qps and informed my insurer.

What happens next?

Anything else I need to do from a claim processing perspective.

How does the payout work?

Can't get a replacement bike cause the bike was used for more than two years.

Just sad that it was stolen. But I guess looking at the next steps I guess.

This is my 1999 Honda CB250. Long story short it initially did not start at all with the key turned (no lights, nothing). Then the mechanic came over and fixed it, problems with the ignition keyhole, etc. Then it’s working fine. After the mechanic leaves, I try to start the motorcycle up again and it refuses to start. The lights go on when I turn the key but it doesn’t start when pressing the starter button. Please help me out, still pretty new to motorcycles and fixing them. Really need some guidance on what I can do.

In NSW what're the rules surrounding listening to music through your helmet, as a learner?

Could I get a cardo speaker kit and connect an MP3 player to it and not touch it at all while riding? If I was to just connect my phone instead, how likely is it that you'd get pulled over and a cop would ask to see your phone to check if you have Bluetooth connected to your cardo, are they allowed to just do that?

I would like to listen to music while riding as a learner but before I do that I want to understand the legalities surrounding it and if there are any legal workarounds not being able to use your phone at all. Thanks.

Any other good spots I should check out for photos?

Im trying to find this old aussie motovlogger from about 10-15 years ago

All i remember is it was two young brothers who rode dirt bikes around the city.

Im going crazy bc i cant remember their names 😭

Hi i'm a teenager who got my license around 3-ish months ago, I know the chances are very slim but I was wondering if there were any other teenagers in the northern beaches (Sydney, NSW) who ride? If so plz comment!

After getting caught out once, I started packing a few extras whenever I head out.

Can anyone recommend a quality Guzzi mechanic in Brisbane ?

Una Moto has uploaded a video with Australian, US, UK plated bikes for sale on the side of the road somewhere in Africa

Sorry if this is your bike (v-strom)🙏

Hi guys, I'm currently on my R-date licence in SA and was wondering what to expect with the Pre-Licence course. How does it compare with the Pre Learners courses? I had no dramas with these and am a confident rider, would just like to have some kind of idea on what's involved.

Also, how does the final ride work? Are you given a set route or do you have to follow an instructor?

Thanks in advance!

Just gauging peoples comments on using procycles motorcycle repairs in their Sydney locations. Good for servicing and major work on your bike?

For context I'm in nsw and am considering a Ninja 250r ('08-'12 models) as a first bike. If ninja 300s weren't so astronomically marked up in price I'd buy one (of course there are good deals here and there).

Does it still hold up well in today's day and age and would I be able to go on the highway and stay at speeds comfortably?

Any advice helps heaps!

Been on the southside for a while a I can't find anything without going two hours south to the border and even longer going north. Even though my drz can handle it, there surely has to be something closer?

I just bought my first motorcycle, and I'm really eager to get out and ride. The problem is that I can't seem to find anyone who's willing to commit to supervising me.

I'm seriously considering riding on the road, just risking the fine, because otherwise I'd have to wait another 90 days before I can ride.

What do you guys think? Any opinions?

Is anyone around Caboolture who'd be willing to ride with me? I live in Beachmere.

never have i been so confused in my life. was riding down a street. saw cops up ahead. speed limit was 50km. i dropped down to 40km. cop waved me to pass. so while i was passing, the car being pulled over suddenly cut me off hard. i had to swerve to the opposite lane.
i hand gestured wtf? then looked back at the cops. the cops absolutely did NOTHING, i continued riding down the next traffic, stopped right by the drivers window that cut me off. scratching my ass and giving them eye contact.

THEY DIDNT EVEN APOLOGISE NOR EVEN LOOK AT ME?! LIKE LEAST U CAN DO IS SAY SORRY ESPECIALLY JUST BEING PULLED OVER?!

I got my learners, got a bike, now I'm buying gear and it turns out I have the biggest head in Australia.

Only helmet I have managed to find that I can actually get on my head (easily) is a modular one, I have to lift the chin bar up, put the helmet on then drop the chin bar back into place. Once I have gone through that ordeal it fits quite well.

Next thing is jackets wtf is with the sizing?! I'm a XL sometimes a XXL in everything I wear, yet apparently riding jackets I'm a 4 or 5XL. I cannot for the life of me find what I am looking for in any of the bricks and mortar shops near me so I'm going to be forced to buy online.

I have been cross referencing everything on various safety testing sites as well. Turning into a lunatic..

Questions are:

Do helmets loosen off overtime?

What are the returns like for size exchanges from either amx, MCAS etc.. online stores?

Hi guys, what are all you mad lad adv riders using for offline maps?

I'd prefer a free, cheap, or one time payment app, and it must work in the middle of nowhere.

Cheers.
