Motorcycles - December 2006

Hi everyone, Im having a problem with my Suzuki GZ 125, im new to bikes and although ive spent a while looking through the manual and looking on the internet im having no joy.

The bike was working fine a few days ago when i rode into my local city, i got back, left it for a few hours and tried to use it again that night, the engine just turned over and over without starting...

I tried running along with the bike trying to start it as that usually does the trick but it still would not work and the battery flattened from the repeated attempts. So, after buying a charger and recharging, i have tried changing the spark plug with another one, (also not new but nowhere is open today to buy a new one) and the engine just keeps turning over still.

No idea where to go from here, anyone got any suggestions? thanks :-)

I have a 1989 Yamaha FZR 600 and was wondering what ways if any I could have the torque of the bike increased without spending a lot of money ie engine rebuild?

A guy walks in a bar he has on a harley leather hat, harley leather jacket, harley boots, takes out his harley wallet and gets a beer. What a sap! Then talks about his harley. Just how gay are you HD riders its bad enough you paid good money to ride 90 year old technology! Then you had to take the mufflers off of it....So why the tough guy act? Is it because some guys are straight and dont like the reach around from a fellow hog rider.

I was just wondering how many people went out last summer, bought a bike and wrecked it in the same summer. Also if you know anyone who has done this? I am just trying to figure out why people think all bikers have a death wish.

im reposting this question because i missed out a few details and i need a reply.

im really new to motorbikes, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
today my bike died whilst i was driving it, about 10miles into a journey, and refused to start. it won't kick start, and won't even bump start. the engine cranks, but thats it. and it didn't just stall, there was a loss of power- i noticed it slowing down- and then slowly came to a halt. but lights, horn, etc work, and the starter motor turns.
what could it be? the KILL switch is on RUN, it has a new spark plug, and it sparks.it has a full tank of fresh fuel, and the spark plug is wet when i crank it.it makes no difference if the choke is on or if the petcock is on prime or reserve. the battery is fully charged, and connected

what the hell is it!?

the engine cranks and sparks- but it doesn't seem to want to ignite...
i dont know if this helps, but i can feel air coming out the exhaust when i crank it
any feedback appreciated

thanks

Last year i laid my bike down, nothing major all minor scratches and dings, but i did bend the break pedal. Since then, the break light has stayed on constant, i kept riding through the rest of the season but would like to get it fixed now. Dos anyone know where the sensor might be, or what else might be causing this.

I was also wondering about how much it would cost to rebuild it and if I could even find any parts for it that may need to be replaced. The guy who has it says it's all there just in pieces.

Hi, my four wheeler is running fine, but there is a lot of "smoke" coming out of the exhaust pipe. Any ideas on how I can make it run "cleaner"? Thanks!
