  • Side marker lamps on the single-lane vehicle

    According to StVZO, side marking lights on single-lane vehicles are not allowable and, according to my inquiry at DEKRA, also lead, for example, to the fact that the HU badge cannot be assigned if they are mounted. Although the tested engineer could not answer my question directly, he called me back after extensive research and told me this. Also fits to my knowledge. Whether it’s for single-lane vehicles with EC approval I assume that the DEKRA employee has checked this. My real question is (in the search I found nothing really suitable about this) whether your experience with SML in general traffic controls, DEKRA and TÜV investigations has been gained. There are enough scooters, mopeds and motorcycles with orange beacons on the flanks. I would be very grateful for information. Ciao, LUPF

  • Vibrating the fork with hard brake

    Hi guys, maybe one of you can help me. Have the following problem with hard braking starts vibrating my fork what could that be? Could that have to do with the setting of the fork because it is completely open in relation to spring prestress, to be approximately adjusted to my weight correctly? Anything else concerning wear and tear I can actually exclude because the bike is not even a year old. Maybe someone has a suggestion ag what else it could be. Thanks already in advance.

  • Average age of registered motorcycles?

    Hi, about the average age of the German car stock there are various statistics. But I have not found anything similar about the German motorcycle stock yet. Since motorcycles in this country mainly serve the leisure activities and are accordingly mostly maintained and placed dry, I could imagine that the average age is considerably higher than with the local car stock. My Moto Guzzi California III will e.g. in the coming Month 19 years old, has 61,000 km on the clock and is in a technically and optically excellent condition (I acquired 4 years ago from 1st hand). What is it like with you?

  • Supersport bike, ducati, mv agusta, honda….

    Hi, I’m 21 years old and I’m now 3 years a 600s honda cbr which was throttled to 34 ps and is now open for half a year…. the bike is already quite old, and the performance is not after what I imagine…. so I want to finally fulfill my dream of a 1000s supersport bike! let’s start with a mv agusta 1000 f4… that’s eugl my dream since I’m 16. From the purchase are used already from about 7k to get, even the 750 variant would be enough for me. However, what about the entertainment? I will do a lot of things myself on the bike. However, mature, inspections, insurance etc are considerably more expensive than e.g. with a honda cbr 1000 with ducati tame e.g. a 998 xerox or a 996s in question… but also there again the question poses itself to me how it looks with the prices of the entertainment. My questions are not unjustified, which one hears just again and again ducati is in the workshop visits the most expensive etc… but how much more expensive are they really? I hope someone can help me…. as the last variant I would buy a honda cbr 1000 in repsol design, I also like this one… but a f4 would be another quite different league…… Greeting Andy

  • Who can give me tips to mature?

    Hello, I have to buy my moped new matures! Now it’s the case that the matures have to be driven in so that the smear film is removed! Is it enough if you drive there completely normal? so not racing, but driving around the curves in driving school manner? Or is that very slippery? is there home remedies to remove the film faster? I heard about Schmirgelpapier, from brake cleaner (I don’t think it’s good for the mature) or a nice burnout in the dreck (I don’t really want to wear it off). would be nice if you can give a beginner like me a few tips….

  • Need large, comfortable, airy summer gloves

    We haven’t had such a thread this year, have we? No serious. I’m almost desperate. I ordered a few gloves in the net, Held Summerset. I thought at the company Held you can’t do anything wrong. Wrong thought. I couldn’t drive 50m with it, pain. Pain in the fingertips because the inner seams are really nice inward, like blunt plastic needles. Made in Pakistan. So I’m going to Polo and Hein. Meager selection, nasty optics, partly the same P This can’t be anywhere. Ordering gloves in rows in the net and sending them back again is too stupid for me. Louis only opens his holy halls on August 6th. So I need a few gloves, at least size 13, mainly black, something in the direction of fighter optics would be nice. So with protectors on the ankles. The most important thing, however, must be extremely airy. I always feel 10°C warmer than the average German. At 20° C, I’m starting to sweat, at 30°C the broth wien waterfall is running, and now let’s get your suggestions.

  • Drive in England, stick your headlights off or not?

    So, as an Englishman, I have to ask the question all questions. I’m going to England with my motorcycle. Do I also have to have my headlight diverted with the so-called Light Benders? Somehow I don’t find any information about this, just a lot of questions. For my car, that’s clear, and I could imagine for the motorcycle too. Only, some motorcycles only have small round headlights, how should this be glued off. Was here someone last in the United Kingdom and knows exactly if I have to say hello to Jasonhttps://www.adac-shop.de/…/…-Abkleber-England-Great Britain.html

  • Motorcycle for big people

    Hey, I just made my A2 driver’s license and am looking for a motorcycle. I’m basically looking for a lightweight compact motorcycle. The problem is that I’m 188cm tall and therefore somewhat limited in my selection. My question:Can anyone recommend a lightweight, compact and “not enduro” motorcycle for big people (188cm)? I’d be very grateful for any advice as I can’t normally take more than pro-owned because often no throttled versions are available si Thank you in advance!
