Seems to me the best way to wash a bike is to get Goff to do it Regards WD

Thats gotta hurt Wd

The good thing about Jensen Button winning is that it follows on from Lewis Hamilton's success, showing that we can produce drivers of world championship quality

Some time ago Top Gear did a piece about how there is always an astra van wanting to overtake you, however it won't be long before the EU limits the top speed of all new vans, Regards Wombledog

Hi Jim, Supposedly the idea of the legislation is to improve the skills of professional drivers and therefore road safety, personally I do think that all professional drivers should undergo the training / retraining irrespective of what they drive as whilst there are some very professional drivers out there, there are also some that leave an awful lot to be desired. As someone who has worked in all aspects of the road transport industry for nearly 35 years and has held a cat C+E (old class one) licence for 27 I think I'm qualified to comment. Regards WD PS I think you'll find dust cart drivers may be exempt

The driver CPC for buses started last September and for lorries it is this September (new drivers only) existing drivers have 5 years to complete the training from the above dates. however it is a vocational requirement, therefore you can pass a HGV test and if all you do is drive your own horsebox, you do not need the cpc, Regards WD

I think if you did it in silver it would need to match the engine casings regards Wombledog

Jim, This is how I did mine

Maybe the reference to KR is to do with the speedblocks appearing on FS1e's, I would chrome the springs or as a second choice do them black Regards Wombledog

You could try posting on the wanted section of the fizzy website as someone always seems to be stripping a yb down for the engine Wombledog

I agree with Goff the adverts are a pain, but I understand the need to fund the site and on that basis accept that they are a necessary evil. I also agree that some of the signatures and avatars are a bit ott, On the positive side I find the site interesting, informative and amusing regards Wombledog

Hi All, Has anyone ever stripped the rear dampers on a YAS1, I can see that there is a small roll pin through the top mounting, any ideas on how it comes apart after that regards WD

Hi All, I've recently bought a non running YG1 and have discovered that the clutch actuating lever (that is inside the crankcase cover is missing) The part is discontinued, does anyone have one kicking around that they would be either willing to sell or loan me so I can get something engineered, I would be willing to pay any carriage charges regards Wombledog

Do you still have them for sale? regards Wombledog
