New to street bikes. Got home from work today and the bolt directly behind the tie rod is completely knocked loose. The tie rod is the only thing that kept it on the bike from fully coming out. What does this bolt go to?

Hey ive got this light ticking/chattering noise its fairly constant regardless of rpm but at higher rpm I cant really hear it, Im not sure if its an exhaust leak or if its the pair valve, any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi Guys, Just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself I passed my DAS 2 weeks a go and picked my new bike up on Saturday. First ride home was 75 miles, so felt pleased with this. Bike was great and really enjoyed my first ride on my own. Got used to the bike quite quickly and really think...

Hello! Recently I've noticed a noise that seems to be emanating from the front sprocket area of my bike, and I cannot for the life of me find out what's causing it- to the point that I'm wondering if it's always been there and I'm only just now noticing it. The sound seems to be related to...

Hi - dumb question. I feel like I should have the need to replace my chain & sprockets by now - I’ve done 45,000 kms but have used a chain oiler from day one. The sprocket teeth look ok at me (I think), attached is photo. The chain tension guide is still in the green. Any tips...

I recently purchased a 2021 Honda CB650R (Australia). Ive just completed 1000km on it and have taken in for first service. About 2 weeks ago I noticed the bike beeping randomly. Basically its a high pitch electronic beep that last for 2 - 3 seconds. Im riding normally when it happens and...

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if someone with a CB650FA 2017 could post a video clip of the engine idling after a ride, so it’s hot. But recorded around the right hand side near the cam chain tensioner and cam cover. I know about pair valve noise, but think the cam chain maybe a bit noisy...

I have had a look at how difficult it is to remove pair valve today on my 2018 cbr 650f while doing that I unplugged the pair valve. I have since put it all back together double checking that all sensors etc are plugged back in. Now my engine management light is permanently on. Has anyone got...

Hi there, I am having issues starting my Honda CB650R 2019. To give some background to my predicament, I bought the bike used and it had previously sat for a month. It started up fine when I bought it, but the clutch plates needed to be replaced. I towed it home and it has sat in my garage for...

I've just fitted a tail tidy too my cbr650f and have somehow managed to knock all the dash off with the exception of the HISS light (which is flashing on and off). The rear turn signals worked fine for a minute or so but then there was the sound of a short circuit that clicks every time I...

Title says it all. He was riding and popped the gear lever off on a downshift. His bike is stuck in third gear. I’m thinking that he needs some sort of OEM replacement hardware for that bracket that the lever mounts to. But I’m also confused cause it doesn’t even look threaded. He just picked...

Hi all; I think I'll probably need to get a mechanic to diagnose... but wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar or has any advice as the stealership wants over £100 just to diagnose. Here are the problems: Indicators stopped flashing and stayed solid at the beginning of last...

Hey, I have a 2018 cbr650f with 200 miles on it and I was riding down the highway yesterday and anything above 70mph in 5th and 6th gear I had vibrations in the seat and handlebars. Its never done it before. Could I get some insight?

So in Australia we have a law where the tail light turn signals must be at least 300mm apart therefore eliminating the clean integrated tail light method. However l still would love to have an intergrated tail light on my recently purchased CBR650F so l was curious as to whether anyone knows of...
