  1. Hi, i was involved in a collision last year that as resulted in a year long claim, today i recieved a letter from my lawyers saying that i would be better of proposing 50/50. Im just wondering if it goes 50/50 will i have to pay for the rental bike i had during the claim ? and will i have to pay back the without prejudice payment cheque if i accept? Thanks in advance.
  2. Well it doesnt smell like petrol or oil so it smells like water .
  3. ( just noticed a small leak under the exhaust, it seems to be coming out of a small hole underneath the exhaust, smells like water is it just condensation?)
  4. Ive fixed bike now, it was the inlet pipe that were causing the problems. Bike runs fine now and idles great, off to get some spark plugs soon, shall i get iridiums or standard ones? Thanks for your help lads
  5. Also i noticed the other day, that this intake pipe is split badly at the top ( its close to breaking in half )Could this be causing a vaccum leak? http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/pict/260713738718_0.jpg&imgrefurl=http://pricesbargains.info/carburetor-joint.html&usg=__y4dvC83KVHcPexjLUVE2fQGUEpw=&h=72&w=96&sz=3&hl=en&start=16&zoom=1&tbnid=j5SxShLvmWO0UM:&tbnh=65&tbnw=87&ei=lCfITafUFMPZiAKpjsjWBA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dvirago%2Bintake%2Blink%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-GB:official%26biw%3D800%26bih%3D402%26tbm%3Disch0%2C684&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=315&vpy=186&dur=1546&hovh=65&hovw=87&tx=104&ty=27&page=3&ndsp=8&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:16&biw=800&bih=402
  6. Right ill have a go tommorow, i havent had the time to mess about with it yet, so hoping to get things checked tommorow. Can i leave the carb on the bike with those instructions?
  7. Im gonna have another go tommorow, im gonna test for compression, switch the plugs, and i might actually open up the carb and give the jets a clean, can you give us a rough idea of how to do it, and how hard is it? Doesnt sound right to me how he bikes running, it will rev freely but when i let the revs off it seems slow to decrease them? doesnt sound healthy at all, hoping ive got compression on both cyclinders, if i have then ill be a happy man.
  8. I didnt take the jets out, ive just had a look on carb and the only flat head screws i can see are very small, on the right hand side of the carb, are these the jets? Im gonna try some new plugs tommorow.
  9. No choke, and when i took the plugs out one was black and wet and the other was dry and light brown, the problem seems to have started after tightening my chain, confusing me now. ( oh and you were right about taking off the tank, piece of piss !)
  10. Quick update, Just cleaned carbs and all fuel lines, now the bike starts but it wont idle at all, i have to keep revs on or it will just cut out, also it doesnt sound right it sounds like its running rough.
  11. hi, ive got a sachs roadster 125 (same engine as a virago), i ran out of fuel the other day, and ive just been and put a fiver in, gone to start the bike and it wont have it. Ive checked the plugs, HT leads, fuel is getting to the carb but i think thats as far as its going, the bike will start but it idles very low and eventually cuts out, even when i bump start the bike. Ive tried everything i can think off, just coming on here for some advice. Thanks.
  12. Well ive decided to sell mine, its been a great bike but its time to get rid and finally get a 2 stroke lol. If anyones interested ill be putting it in the for sale section. Good look with your builds Paul.
  13. lol What engine are yu thinking off putting in yours? A dt engine?
  14. This any good to you? And this, http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_is_the_oil_drain_plug_on_1993_yamaha_xj600
