Hi guys
i am 28 with 2 kids have a nice car but wanted to get on to bikes

I am a noob when it comes to bikes it total my first bike it a 1984 MZ ST125 this bike runs just the wiring looks like the guy who had it before did not have a clue ( used masking tape everywhere ) and it also needs tuning.
on a plus i did get nearly a complete bike in bits which on off the top of my head consists of frame both side panels front wheel with drum think there is front and back wheel guard most of a engine few stands lol

Welcome to the madhouse! (It's a TS125 by the way!) They are simple enough to work on and there are people on here to give you help you need.

Sorry TS125 lol

Is there anyone one close to Barnsley area that i could take the bike to its not running right at all and i dont know if the carb has had it looks clean inside but bogs down when the throttle is on thats when you get it started

It's a little bit of a way but you could try Mollsprings - they are near Homfirth somewhere. My friend lives up that way and swears by them. They do know a lot about MZ's s it might be worth talking to them. Andy is the MZ man apparently.

Do you have a garage to work on the bike in? Or a wife that doesn't mind a bike in the kitchen or living room? If so I could pop over and have a look at it for you one evening. Would invite you round to my garage ( or rather my OHs garage) is full of an FJ1200, remains of a Tiger 855i, 2 Atlas lathes, tumble drier, .......... well you get the picture!) Oh and despite my address on here I'm actually in Barnsley at the moment
