So I'm trying to get replacement tyre for my sons little dirt bike and I'm not having any luck. Its a 2.50-10 wheel. Does anyone have one spare or know where to get one? I'm in Blenheim

Transalper where are you?
I can't seem to send direct messages from my phone. Trying to contact the ChCh crowd, especially Transalper.
Can anyone WhatsApp me about bike hire for a visiting pom in October 2018? +353871713125. I live in Ireland these days. If anyone is in the area, come and stay!

Transalper where are you?
UK biker on tour in October 2018
Hey people, it's been ten years since I visited and participated in the meetings and ride-out events around ChCh with Transalper and Oldrider (iirc) plus a load of guys on the adventure ride turned trail where Transalper ended up sinking sideways in a strong current. But, I remember it all fondly and vividly and I often talk about it still. New Zealand transformed my life in many ways.
I have inspired a friend and his wife to go to NZ and sample the roads and the two wheeled brotherhood (and sisterhood) of your amazing country.
I recommended him to sign up here. His name is Rob. Lookout for his StoneAlive screen name.
I'm after some latest info for him on how to spend two months riding the south island please. Are there any affordable bike hire places these days?
Is Trade Me still the best way to find a private seller?
Are any of you into selling and buying back (pre agreed rates, to make you a modest profit)?
Are any of you selling a decent used machine suitable for the back roads, two-up?
I think he's going to your the north island in a camper, and then do the south on a bike.
That's it. Any info gratefully received.
I live in Ireland now, on the West Coast, Galway. If any of you are ever in the area, come and stay!

GN250E Workshop/Service Manual
Anyone have any GN250E manuals that they can give me a link to or send to me?
Wanting to do some work on my GN, but wanting to read through a manual first, not having much luck finding one
Any help will be greatly appreciated

2007 hyosung v2s 250r won't start
I was having problems keeping my bike running after i shifted into first gear, so i was told to clean the spark plugs. After removing the fuel tank, cleaning the spark plugs and puting it all back together my bike only started and ran for about 30 seconds then died and i can't get it to start now.
Any ideas?

Hacking a WR250 Speedo
The speedo on my WR250R is flipping useless, even from new it drove me mental that the stupid thing couldn’t get close to approximating my real ground speed. I spend a lot of my riding time trying to perform the mental gymnastics required to work out if I actually am doing 40 through a school zone. Then after a multi-day effort to undo the nut on the output shaft, I’ve changed the sprocket, dropping a tooth on the front. So the speedo’s miles out now.
So this weekend, armed with an oscilloscope, I set out to see if I could hack into the WR’s wiring loom and trick the bikes speedo. The ultimate goal of this project is to come up with some sort of speedo healer type device.
There’s lots of stuff on the internet about WR250R speedos, so finding a good place to hack into the loom was not a problem. The speedo pickup connects just behind the left-hand side panel, easy.

Putting the bike on a lift stand allowed me to easily spin the back wheel (speed pickup sender reads off the gear box) and see what kind of electrical pulses come out of the sender.
The scope showed a nice 5 volt square wave. Awesome, I can knock up a simple microcontroller circuit to bang out a 5 volt pulse. The Yamahas excellent onboard diagnostics mode allowed me to count the number of speed pulses per wheel revolution to give me an idea of how fast to send the pulses to the ECU.
For any programmers out there, the guts of program is pretty frickin simple.
While(1)
{
pulse == !pulse;
delayMs(10);
}
That’s it, wire the circuit up to the bikes battery and the microcontroller output to the ECU speedo input. Turn on the ignition and SUCCESS.

Playing around length of the delay shows different speeds on the clocks. At this point the urge to see how fast she could go became overwhelming, so I set the delay to zero to see what would happen.

Look mum I’ve maxed out the bike, no hands!
Next weekends job is to read the pulses from the speedo sender work out how fast they’re coming, adjust them according to some ratio and send them onto the ECU. Which I think is going to be a bit trickier
