Best not, we'll have people quoting:

"Unscrew broken one...Remove....Put new one in....Tighten"

To everything you can think of including marriage counseling, advice on relationships, changing the tyre on a 98R1, installing a fridge freezer etc Laughing

Aye lol....but what would be good would be to....

Get some super biker boffin (kickstart or someone along those lines Razz ) to possibly do a write up on general bike maintanace...and replacing tyres, checking chain tension, checking for general wear and all that malarky.

Or, as we did on another forum (not bikes) was assigned (volunteers) people different 'subjects'...then they all wrote their bit (whether it be a paragraph or a 5000 word essay) and they were ammended where needed and posted into a sticky.

It was really helpful, especially for numpties like me Very Happy

Please excuse me if this is already posted, or even worse already a sticky. Its 1am, got a fair amount of toxins in me so give me a chance Very Happy
