Selling my newlite mini hauler / mini bike rack. $200. Call me on 0403862521 if you are interested.

Here's a new pic of my bike. Have changed the rear light setup. Also upgraded to a high rise seat and fastace rear shock.

My thoughts are that you could rec reg the bike, but I think the person riding the bike could be fined for not having a license.

I dont see how putting coins in the tube would make the spring stiffer. It would just pre-compress it, giving you less travel? Stiffness of the spring is a constant from my engineering days. Let me know how you go because my forks are wayyy to soft too.

Nope I'm not jumping. Just riding around flat stuff mostly. I only weigh about 93/94 kg and I find that when riding the forks do often bottom out easily. Ie. just riding around on a bumpy grassy field will cause this. Maybe Atomik changed the springs on them or something at some point.

Hi there guys, Can you advise if the AS02's would bottom out with a 95kg rider (me)? I have an Atomik Moto X and I find that the front forks bottom out alot (they only have a couple of inches of travel with me on it). Thanks for the help as I want to see if the money on the AS02's is...

Thanks guys. Ps. I did search and couldn't find any other shit on these forks!

Hi everyone, I am considering buying a set of FastAce AS-03for my Atomik Moto X 125. I find that my stock forks bottom out with my weight (~94kg) and that my bike doesn't handle that well over rough terrain. I know the FastAce forks are adjustable, but will the fast ace forks stop the...

Does anyone know any good motorcycle mechanics around melbourne that could tune my bike properly (Atomik moto x)? I had to replace the throttle cable and I have not been able to get my bike to run correctly since. I played with the mixture screw (thinking it was an idle screw) which has...

I've owned one of these bikes since around December 06. So far the only thing that has broken is the throttle cable (which seems to happen on alot of bikes). The frame probably could be stronger and looks weaker than others. Forks are way to soft for my weight (~94kg) and bottom out all the...

Sounds like a bloody rip off. Try All Motorcycle X-ccessories5/ 477 Dorset Rd Bayswater 3153(03) 9729 8000 I was there on the weekend and they had some great prices on riding gear. They sell accessories too.

I got it to start last friday. Pulled some extra mud off it, unwrapped the tape on the ignition coil and re-wraped it. Started! Thanks.

There is one place I called up a while ago to move a bike from Qld to Vic. They dealt in moving bikes specially. I can't remember their name, but the price from memmory was around $500.

Oops sorry guys. I deleted my earlier post. I obviously didn't install them :) They have stopped my puncture problems to some extent - I got a thorn through my tyre a few weeks ago and couldn't fn believe my bad luck!

Just kick up a fuss ; say you'll write to the transport minister. If their systems can't recognise your bike, this is not your responsibility. It is a Vic Roads system issue only. My bike only had a 14 digit VIN when the usual number is 17. They can still enter it. I'm not even sure if it was...
