TSR Motorbike Society- take 3!

Yes, your no claims don't expire when the license does, so if you get 2 year no claims, then have a year off you'll still have them, but leave it much longer and you'll have to start from scratch again



Most of us on here are just old and not grown up yet!

"Grown up," what is this thing of which you speak?

i dont plan on it... (much to Juno's dislike )

Hi people I need some maintenance help please! My rear brake disc had wd40 sprayed on it (little nephew found the bottle) and now my rear brake hardly works. I press it while riding at 20mph (and I mean slam on it hard) and my bike gradually comes to a stop it's not safe at all. Also my bike chain keeps coming off, often when I shift to second gear. I have to pull up on the side and get my hands all oily and dirty just to put it back. Just now it came off, I put it back on and then came off after 5 mins again! Is it because it is too oiled? This problem never happened before, it's a recent problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Tighten your chain, it's far too loose to be able to come off. What bike? tightening isn't hard, you loose the rear axil, then you'll have two bolts one on each swing arm at the end near the back of the bike (most likely can't tell without knowing the bike) turn these both the same amount clockwise, gradually it moves the rear wheel back, tightening the chain. The chain should have 1.5inchs slack. Don't over tighten, and make sure you turn each bolt the same amount, otherwise your wheel will become wonky and can cause you to crash

With your rear brake disk, detergent or paraffin on the disk AND the pad, wash it, wash it, wash it some more, then rinse and wash it again.

HTH's?

Bike is Honda 125r 2007
