today i was riding home from a job interview, i was traveling approximately 20mph behind a white van when suddenly he stopped. i stopped and wondered what he was doing as it was on a main road, at this point im about 5-6 meters behind him, the next minute i see his brake lights come on and suddenly hes charging into me!!! i tried to push the bike back as fast as i could and also beeped the horn to let him know i was here but no! straight into the front of me, the front end of my bike got sucked under the van!!! he didn't even realize what he had done, he just kept reversing, i got off the bike and went to his window to tell him to stop!! he got out and admitted straight away that it was his fault, police turned up and sorted it out, just waiting to here from insurance company to find out when the assessor is coming out to assess the bike, i think its going to be a write off though i have had so many problems with this bike its unreal!!!

hiya, i was driving down a road behind a nice Mercedes the other day and suddenly it slammed on its brakes for no reason what so ever! i slammed on my brakes but was too late. i went straight over the handle bars and over the roof of the car! the driver of the car got out to see what damage was done to his car. he then realized there was no damage so he got back in his car and drove off! since then i have had a much trouble with the bike there was no body damage to the bike except from scratches, but on the engine side, its not good! as the bike hit the floor, it hit the kick start into the engine   it also snapped the breather cable, broke the engine over where the kick start goes on. i have replaced these, but whenever i go to start the bike from the button, the kick start spins around and doesn't start.  i took off the kick start handle bit. the bike starts but sounds absolute horrible! it sounds as if the engine is eating the bike! it sounds horrible my brother is a mechanic and he said that it cant be fixed unless he rebuilds the engine or i get a new engine im a big confused on what to do now does anyone know what situation im in and how it can be fixed easily? thanks

i passed! im on the road! its great, so much more freedom

well basically where i live its really windy, and the cover for my moped keeps flying off, any tips on how to keep the cover on ? im nearly 16 and really excited to get on the road, any tips on how to make sure the bike doesn't fall over?
thanks
