  1. hey folks, new to the club, and new to bikes, so bare with me please

    im in france with my sr 125, i was taking a tight corner and leaning over quite a bit

    the chain came loose, and off the rear wheel cog (bad jargon, i know)

    so i put it back on, easily enough, but then it was really loose.

    anyways i continued along my merry way, bike still functioning just about.

    but sometimes the chain would come off, obviously coz its real loose....

    so now i've had a friend tighten it, not sure how, i guess he took out some links???

    apparently, the chain is completely wrecked, it badly needs oil and to be changed....

    i know, i'm useless.

    so heres the quetions

    how much does a knew chain cost? roughly...

    with the oil, do i just pour it on like one would for a bicycle....

    how long will this "completely wrecked" chain last....

    will it do any other damage to the bike if i continue with it.....

    thanks a mill for any advice or tips, sorry about the rediculously trivial questions....

    ps i wont be reparing it myself, due to lack of tools while travelling and complete ignorance!!!!

    Word of Advice take it to your local bike shop or garage and get them to order u a new chain and sprocket set and get them to fit it and get them to show you how to adjust it if need be and use gearbox oil on ure chain works onders..... should cost no more than £40 for a set

  2. its a 50cc so don't expect much to be honest u can get different exhausts an rollers to tune it but i wouldn't expect to get no More than 55 tops on her, unless u strapped a rocket to her and then Ur have some Good acceleration

  3. i have an 88 RXS100 with a 6v battery.

    everything worked fine, then i took the oil tank out to give it a clean and when it was all put back together again the indicators wont work.

    is it just crappy electrics or are there any wires assosiated with the indicators running near the oil tank that i could have caught or damaged while working???

    all other lights, horn and instruments work fine!!!!

    HELP

    check the flasher reley i have bought a new one for mine and works so much better if not the wires need a check which i had to do to mine found loads of diy wireing done that needed to be done properly the wires on thease rxs100 aint much good so u will need to check and use decent connecters if u find problems

  4. my rxs100 e reg 89...i had a problem a week ago found out it was sugur....went to check the points ignition which there wasnt lol i thought someone might of changed it thats all

    atlease i dont have to set the points on it....also ive found some fiber reeds for it would they be alright or a waste of time and money
