Tell us your DIY howlers

MCN will be doing a feature soon about the disastrous bodges inflicted on bikes in the sake of keeping them going – or in sheer ignorance.

Whether you’ve tried twigs instead of gear shifts or sealed an exhaust with a Tango can and rubber glove we want to hear from you – or the " mate " (yeah, right) who attempted the impossible.

Click on the link on the right to leave yourself open to ridicule or send them directly to richard.fairbairn@emap.com and we’ll include the best in the feature.
