Tommy xs

No sign of any leaks and lever feels fine but it might be worth a try bleeding them.

Cheers Finn, are you shaw they where original though?

Would have been tempted to run over his bike if I'd been driving the black car behind.

The first couple of times this happened I thought it was just me pulling the lever slightly as I accelerated, l mean it does nearly pull yer arms out of their sockets when she goes. But seems to be happening more often now even when I know my hand is off the lever so looking round on the web thing some advise is to change the clutch spring, but I'm thinking might be better to do plates as well while I'm in there as I'll need a new gasket anyway might as well just buy a clutch kit and know its done, any advise on brand ect and any tips from the FJ boys as its almost the same motor.

When I saw the title to this thread I clicked hoping to see a punch line never mind welcome to YOC.

No Slice Oltimer gave Drewpy his Fz. l got given a Honda 50 by mate and I loved if till some little toerag stole it.

Sickening

Take the long way home Grouch it's the perfect excuse

Yep like Cynic said, l was using redex lead replacement for years till I joined YOC Only to find I didn't need it, been running fine without now for about 5 years.

No I don't remember! it must have been one of your Dreams, oh I still have that stretchy net thingy of yours i'll return it with the handcuffs & the whip

Hi Paul nice Tidy example you have their, main problem I had with mine was points needed lot of adjustments oh and I suspect you already know brakes are poo,but I know what you mean about prices these are well worth the money, not so many left in original form anymore most have been cafe'd, can only go up in value and still loads of fun.

Nearly hit a dear while driving in my van in Warrington! She turned round and tried to whack me with her zimmer frame

That was a nice hot sunny day though Although been behind you in the rain on that and it seems to handle really well

How do you know?

Noticed it went quiet here a while back seems to have picked up again, now everyone's had their fix of riding. Think sometimes people just get tired of same old ?s drift away then miss it and come back still a few faces missing in here wonder what's happened to Kev ?

Your lucky you get to do so many miles, I'm lucky if I get 2k total a year riding. My tyers are fine I just don't get enough riding time

I'm sure the guys are right in that its the jets but also check fuel filler cap breather, easiest way is see if it runs OK with filler cap slightly open also check any vacuum pipes aren't split or blocked,

No there's a rarity a bloke complaining that his cocks too big

Never knew it was there Drew, I'll check it out and let you know what I think

Hi James welcome to YOC. my first bike was a xs250 and loved it but you would probably find there are still some 125s out there that are quicker, not that is what you want, I can see that by your choice, bet its a great feeling to be back on two wheels again after so long but you never forget its just like riding a bike!

It Was brilliant weather today I managed to finish work early and went for bimble round the back roads of Cheshire , Stopped off at Great Budworth for an icecream then home in time for tee.

Thanks everyone looking forward to getting out on it again, went through the Mersey tunnel 3 times the other day just cos the exhaust sounds so good
