    Yamaha SR Tracker/Brat

    So I bough a little baby-sized SR - there is absolutely no possible way I can afford a 400/500 here in AUS. I'm looking $5G + for a rustbucket. This will be a cafe/bobber....Cobber.

    Tire sizing

    Hi guys, just about to buy some new rubber. My stock tyres measure 110/90/18 and 100/99/19. Will Dunlop K70 400/18 and 350/19 fit? Interwebs says yes but just want to confirm! Thanks

    What battery?

    I'm replacing my old large battery on my bike. I've never replaced a battery before on his bike, and just wondering how I chose what battery. Do I just read the old one and buy the same? It's a 12v 9a, can I get a smaller 12v 6a or even a 4a? What will a change in amps or volts do? I have a kick...

    How to measure pod filters?

    Simple question; my carbs are 46mm on the inside, what size pod filters should I need? Do I go for a pod with a 47mm inside flange diameter and fit them, then tighten them up? Thanks!

    Registration for motorbike questions.

    So everyone I've spoken to has said to keep my 1976 Honda cj250t stock as a rock, get it rego'd, then to customise it. But what happens with I need to get I pink slip the next year? How do people pass their custom cafe conversions in NSW each year? Thanks!
