Hi, Thank you all last night for the warm welcome at the bikers cafe last night. It was good to have a ride out and meet. Looking forward to plenty more before my riding time is up. Thanks again.

Just considering purchasing a new bike maybe a Supermoto and wondered if Teesside Bikers was still an ongoing group, I used to come over to bowsfield when you met on a Tuesday night. Looking at the Forum it seems most of not the majority of posts are really old 😑 K hope as a group your all still gojng strong 💪🏻

Just a line to say hi gang! I've just bought a Yam 600 Thundercat and plan to ride at Teesside Autodrome occasionally. It would be great to hear from any fellow track day riders. Here's my bike at the start of my new project... Streetfighter Project...

Hi everyone,
I have always had bikes from a teenager however, my hobby had to take a back seat due to fact that I had a family. Now that me kids are grown up, it’s time to get on the roads again after a gap of 15 years. I have a triumph Sprint GT 1050 and can’t stop smiling when I am out on it. I used to go to the pit stop cafe near Stockton as I lived in Ingleby, however I have moved back to my childhood town of Guisborough several years ago.
I hope to see you out and about and will keep my eyes open for organised rides out.
Take care everyone, stay safe…
Regards
Chris

Hi all, I’m returning to Stockton in the next few weeks, after 33 years down south. Had a really helpful local bike shop to me and looking for the same in the Stockton area. I know I need 2 tyres straight away and will need an MOT pretty soon. Anyone have a place that they use regularly.
cheers, Chris
Bikes are GSXR 750 2015 Moto Guzzi V7 cafe racer 2016

Thanks Lee,a few months back i did have the problem of petrol in oil also flooding the airbox and pissing out all over the place,i took the carbs off and a friend who knows carbs found that everything was like brand new except one emulssion tube was blocked ,this was cleaned and carbs put back on,while this was taking place i put a new filter kit (diaphram ) included into the fuel cock along with all the other parts prieviously mentioned ,this last week started leaking again and i put another kit in and noticed the spring wasnt strong enough to push the plunger seal in tight enough ,so sorted this out.
Sunday took bike out for about 15mins to try it ,was going great,last night i took it for a longer run about 40 mins again to try it,was going brilliant until i got back home where the revs died and it cut out again strong smell of petrol no leaks sounds like only running on two cylinders ,started this morning runs ok gets warm cuts out .
Anyone hearing a loud explosion dont worry its just me throwing a match on the bloody bike !!!!!!!!!

This is an unusual fault but the fact that you’ve had a fuel leak reminds me of a similar fault I had.
Dip your oil, or sniff at the oil fill up hole. Does it smell of petrol ?
A diaphragm failure on the fuel tank, causes fuel to flow the wrong way along the vacuum hose. Fuel flows back to the manifold and slowly seeps through your carbs and in my case, eventually into the bore. One of 2 things happen, Fuel will end up all over the floor, or it will seep through the bore and fill your crank cases with petrol.
With the diaphpragm not working correctly, the bike may start for short periods amd then cut out after10-30 seconds. I had it happen on a blackbird... I opened the oil filler plug and petrol came horsing out !
If when pulling the vacuum hose off the tank, and it’s full of fuel, then that’s a sure sign of diaphragm failure (provided you’ve got fuel in the tank) Failing this, just check your vacuum hose for perishing or splits. Both of which will cause your bike to cut out after a short period of running.

I wonder if anyone has any ideas on a problem i have with my Xjr 1300sp,Ive had the carbs off and cleaned due to fuel filling the airbox and leaking everywhere ,put new air filter in new plugs ,oil and filter changed,new throttle cables fitted ,had new battery about 6 months ago,carbs refitted ,pilot jets done to correct settings etc.
Now bike starts pops a bit for a few seconds then sounds and runs great until ..............the engine gets warm /hot then the revs drop and it cuts out. I'm not overley mechanicly minded so looked on line and things pointed to the coils might break down when hot,so i have fitted some new( second hand) coils today exactly the same .
I am now at the point of pulling my non existing hair out.
Any ideas PLEASE >>

Hello,
Just started riding with a couple of mates in July last year, passed my tests in Dec and am now a proud owner of an ER-6F.
Hoping to find some more people nearby to ride with when things allow, to gain more experience and improve my skills.
