  • What punishment awaits me?

    Moin, had a nice encounter with a over-heated cop earlier. First he wanted to seize my car and cut it up through the DEKRA and had it delivered to me in boxes… At the end he took photos of the exhaust, my plate holder and the tips as a bolt cover on the front and rear wheel, as well as on the top of the jumper. Since he was not very willing to talk, he didn’t answer what was coming to me in concrete terms. … What punishment (points etc) is there exactly on my violations? Thank you

  • Experience with accessory camshafts for BT-Evo

    Hello! Again a question from me. I already used the SuFu, but did not find the right thing for me. I drive an FXST Bj.98 with S&S Super E , BSL 2-2 exhaust and stick-toothing. I would like to install a sharper camshaft over the winter (well, the INA for the old Torington bearing in the same way) for more passage in the lower and middle speed range with still proper idleness. Capacity should remain original, does not want to race. Optionally later maybe One more single fire ignition. Who can report from their own experience whether Andrews (EV3, -13, -38), Crane or S&S is the best choice? Thanks in advance. MfG LRT

  • cheap twin carriages

    Hello people, here with a request for advice: I am looking for a Pampasbomber for my two future little ones – what would you recommend? Criteria: 1. The following stroller (LINK) should fit into the trunk, for the “fast time driving around the corner”, built up(!), including the two baby bowls (LINK )! 2. Alternative: At least the thing should be folded up! (in the polo station wagon this unfortunately does not work and you can’t see anything back, let alone anything else! 3. Don’t be older than 10 years and don’t be a transporter (VW T4) and cost a maximum of 10 T€! (That’s the maximum, “I” would rather hit me at half) I’m not a car fanatic, I want to come “simple” from A to B. Our mileage per year is less than 10 TKM. In the Dacia Logan I forgot a little, because it comes more like a station wagon and does not look like a moving cabinet wall (Renaul Kangoo, VW Caddy). conditions – what do you think? Unrealistic, suggestions, what else does my criteria meet? Thank you Kolp.

  • need to get in on your help

    Hey people the following problem: I’m in front of my first car purchase. So far I’ve only driven the Toyota Yaris and the Lexus is 250 (V6 engine) from my parents. Now I want to get a car of my own time… I’ve been looking in the direction of Audi because I like the cars there very much. Unfortunately you hear a lot of bad things about the engines and partly also about the technology in the interior like soud system etc. Nen acquaintance of me drives a B7 3.0TDI and has only problems. The engines are supposed to be better than those at Audi but not even more durable. Then go to Mercedes. They are not as chic now as the others are supposed to be qualitatively better. Unfortunately, the almost only electric hand brakes have to be installed. t. I am absolutely no fan of them. Now I need your help. I want to drive one of the three above mentioned brands. Place 1 is Audi; place 2 BMW; place 3 mercedes… I would like to know from people who drive cars from the years between 2002 and 2008 how they can cope with their cars. So there are many repairs or recalls? Quality and durability of the engines?? I am particularly interested in the experience of middle class drivers so A4, 3, C-Class You would t really help me if you could tell me how the reliability and the above mentioned points can be found in the individual brands. mfg

  • Yesterday my bike is located for the first time

    Hi, gester I put my beloved monster down for the first time. It happened on the property of my parents when I wanted to lift my sister’s little son down. When I was lifting up it was quite easy, I had the first gear in it and the stand folded out. When he had enough of lying on the tank to scream and to play with the buttons, I wanted to lift it down, it went well, but suddenly I came out of the same way. t and the bike then hung totally to the left, I could still catch it but that I did not stand wide-legged enough, unfortunately I had to drop it, a pity!! If I had put the first gear back in, it would probably have brought enough stability not to tip. I was lucky in the bad luck! Handlebars, mirrors and the tank landed softly in the meadow, there I have to replace nothing, but the exhaust landed on the pavement and now has small scratches, which hardly bother me! What however e in small bit, the exhaust and the frame for the passenger footrests are now bent a bit inwards, there was now a lot of the weight on it. I am surprised that the exhaust pipe is not completely dented and also did nothing else, only this small bend on the said frame, driving everything has remained completely in order! So luck in the bad luck!! Get to shoot pictures and load in. Was today at the local Ducati dealer, where I also got the bike, who meant the part would cost about 80 euros, he advised me to have it exchanged, because it is only minimal. What about it, maybe I have 80 euros over, then I change it myself. Am I glad that is otherwise nothing over!! I find the monsters have a very bad stand, I have to search always bitsl until I find a good parking lot, this is really a flaw of my beloved monsters. Has the bike overturned? Was there a lot of damage? Which type of bike was it that fell over you, Enduro, S where and how did it happen? When parking, refueling…? How satisfied are you with the stability of your parked bikes? MfG

  • Peugeot Speedfight 2 LC speedometer broken, taillight broken, tank indicator broken, brake lamp broken

    Hello, my father gave me the old 50cc scooter Speerfight 2 LC S1B0KB0 for the city here in Heidelberg. Since a father has always been very economical and has not invested anything in the scooter, I want to bring the scooter to front now, so that I can drive safely through the city. The following is broken: speedometer indicator, fuel indicator. Brake lamp only lights when rear wheel brake is operated, when the front wheel brake is operated the brake lamp does not light up t on. Even the normal rear light does not work, so a ride at night is not possible. Front light works. What could I do to make things run? What else should be done? Especially with regard to maintenance? What would you do? Thank you for your help.

  • What’s Suzuki Katana AY 50 W??

    Hello, Lief about 70 km/h then there was a flap (made out immediately), then jumped badly and clapped in the stand gas. Suspicion : crankshaft bearings. I shook at the Vario and there was a minimal axial game. Engine is removed and partially disassembled. Crankshaft and bearings do not seem to be. No axial game anymore. Turns even without noises and has compression. Vario claps when I shake them, are probably the reels and is that normal? The small right and one to the outside left. But where does the third one belong??? With the seller Prosports stood : On the left two Simmerrings are needed!!! Does anyone know anything about it? Is there in the engine block another one? Can I almost not imagine. Case on the Simmerring on the right side has minimal oil traces. What could that be?

  • Ignition does not switch off

    Hello together, first of all, I am Wolfgang from Hannover, I am new here in the forum and recently also owner of a Piaggio TPH. I bought the good piece half a year ago as not working and brought it back to the running. After some test drives – the car is going so well – I now stand for half an hour before the problem that I can no longer display it with the ignition key. ter Ignition. I finally got the scooter off by pulling off the spark plug plug. What also gives me to think is that even pulling off the plug fuse next to the battery box keeps the engine running. Does one of the experts present here know any advice?

  • Piaggio Liberty, horn quiet, starts badly

    Hello! I have two problems with a Piaggio Liberty 50 4-stroke built in 2011, 30,000 km. It starts with a cold engine extremely hard. With a mixture of E- and Kickstarter it runs after a few minutes, if you lightly give gas. If you turn on the gas grip, it goes out again. If you let it on a little bit, you can at some point slowly increase the gas in a stand. If you give a short full gas and the engine is warm then it starts with the E-starter. If you start the gas grip The light is darker with such a hold. When you drive, everything works perfectly, except for the horn. This is quieter depending on the speed. Sometimes it is hard to hear, sometimes a little louder, I could not reliably determine a pattern. The battery was changed several times. Do the problems when starting and the horn hang together? Is what generally not true with the electrics? How can I proceed to the diagnosis, it always goes out. ?
