I have a '97 sportster that I am customizing. I am running a side mount license plate light./ tail light and a fender mounted sparco stop light. The rear tailight wires are: black, blue, red/yellow & orange/white. My hanyes wiring diagram doesn't do a real good job at breaking down exactly which are which. Can anyone help and tell me which I need to run for JUST the brake light and which for the tail light/ license plate light ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the Yamaha xv Virago 535 as stated, just bought it monday, filled it up and drove 75 miles. It has no petrol gauge but on my last bike I was able to get about 170 miles before switching to reserve so I guessed this may be about the same. However, after the 75 miles it started coughing and choking, then after a few jumps it stopped and wouldn't start again. Of course I hadn't imagined it would be a petrol issue and so sent it to a garage, they said it was running on fumes and had been sucking in crap from the air (plenty of that in central London!) so I guess it may have run out of petrol, but that sounds waaay too low mileage capability to me! Does anyone know how much mileage I should be getting? Anyone have an idea of something else it may be (from past experience, not just guesses:) )
Ta!

I haven't had a problem with the lights before. I had an accident and destroyed the back light, but after replacing the part and switching out the fuse, the lights worked for a few days. Now, the lights don't come on (including the clicking sound or the "hey your blinker is on" lamp on the display). I tried making sure all the wires were connected near the headlight, and after messing around with the connections for serveral minutes, the lights worked again. On and off -- no problem. Next time I came outside, the lights didn't work anymore. Now, no matter how much I make sure all the wires are connected, the lights don't come on. It's not the fuse, and I'm unsure whether the diode would have anything to do with this... Does anyone know what the problem might be? Or maybe you guys have a link to a troubling-shooting motorcycle site? Any input would help.

Thanks for your time!

I have a 1989 yamaha FZR600. The piston rings are going and the clutch. A buddy of mine suggested instead of crapping the bike, to just swap it for a better motor. I want to know if i can get the FZR1000 motor in my frame. I dont know what the deminsions are or anything, so i am seeing if anyone knows some refrences or has already done this

I am thinking of getting a gas scooter in the 150 to 250 cc range to use commuting to work (15 miles on back country roads) in order to save money on gas. Does anyone have one and can tell me if they are reliable and comfortable to ride. I am currently looking at the brand Tank, but, am willing to consider other brands.

The Harley Davidsons inspite of huge V-Twins don't have radiators on any of their bikes except V-Rod. Why is that ? Is that just a design and fit issue ? How will the engines perform while driving on Indian roads with going no more than 3rd gear in the city traffic and the tropical climate ?

I bought this bike last year but due to the birth of my child, I have to sell it (reluctantly). 2005, Black/Silver, Datatool £300 alarm, 3000mls, all paperwork, bought for £7200.

Please be serious, no stupid remarks like "I'll buy it of ya for a fiver" All sensible answers will be much appreciated.
Thanks

P.s If YOU are interested in purchasing this off me, I'm based in London and will accept the highest offer.
