Much easier to blame the rider. It was his fault! As the rider he should have been prepared for that car. From his reaction he no more regarded the car, than the car did him. I slow down at junctions etc and would not even consider those speeds. Having driven trucks for years i have seen enough wreckage of varying vehicles to have lost my need for speed. I fully understand why plods are so angry at drivers. I downsized from a 600 to a 250 to have all my fun at lower speeds. I sympathise with his family etc but he rolled the highest stakes dice and lost in the worst way.

Unfortunately Lassy this is almost certainly true, if you look this kind of thing up on youtube it appears to be a common occurance, especially in a lot of American homes, I think the term they use is BI-POLAR but my term is SHUT THE F**K UP you moaning little tit and get a job! PS both my son's are games players on the net but when push comes to shove they decide whether it's eat or not, you don't work you don't eat. Harsh some might say but the world don't care if you starve.

Could always turn the shaft drive into a mill with a couple of razor blades welded on then you can carve a nice table leg out of there femur

well i've been going crazy. I have 2 complete motors with bad mainshafts, and I plan to pick up a complete parts bike in a week or so which will give me 4 top ends, and hopefully one useable bottom end... so what I also did was pickup a CT 175 complete gearset in USA that my step mum is going to bring over for me for $10 USD which was just a crazy bargain, I also purchased a CT 175 primary gear (19 tooth) for $7 and some clutch steel plates. ideally I want a complete ct 175 geartrain (primaries + gearset) but at this stage I dont have the 74 tooth CT clutch basket. the gearing differences AG primary = 72/17 (4.3) vs CT PRIMARY 74/19 (3.89) gears CT AG 3.181 vs 3.181 2 vs 2 1.368 vs 1.368 1 vs 0.875 0.8 0.666 ag RPM drop per gear 2413 2054 2342 1553 ct rpm drop per gear 2413 2054 1749 1300 with the different primary gearing the ag bike has shorter 1st 2nd 3rd but 4th and 5th are much longer so bike can still do 100kph - you can see the 600rpm drop is fairly significant. I am hoping perhaps I can put the CT gearset in with the ag clutch basket but ct primary to get 72/19 (3.79 ratio) this will give me the shorter gear ratios but with the same top speed. I am not sure if this is possible as I dont know if the 17 tooth and 19 tooth primary gears have the same diameter/tooth width etc - if not Ill have to buy a CT 175 74 tooth clutch basket instead of the ag 72 tooth basket. if I cant be bothered doing all this I'll just take the mainshaft from the transmission and use with all the other ag bits - the gear ratios aren't that bad. if I run the CT gearset with the ag primaries as it will be super short ratio throughout with top speed of 80 (like the ATMX gearbox) - I could then run a 15t on front and 37t on back to bring it back to normal

feck the hot water, boil a pan full.

You know what they say " shit happens" keep saving the penny's slice.

Shit mate - feel your pain! Do you not feel hot water is over rated???

High rpm and heat misfires tend to point to a coil breaking down,could be the main coil or the pick up coil or CDI. If you have a Multy meter and a heat gun try warming up the coils and see if they fall out of speck range for resistance of ohms. Or a can of compressed air to quickly cool them down when it happens,problems like this need some serious investagation and we can only offer things to check that you may not know to check. If you haven't yet,,,, a Hi hello in the new members setion is the right thing to do.
