dear all,

i have just purchased this bike -

the clutch is sticky - i think it could do with a service. i wanting to get my hands dirty - what should i do for a basic service?

change the oil, filter, plug etc?

where is the best place to get parts for my bike - i am based in north london.

worse case - who should i go to for servicing - i need someone who is cheap but good.

many thanks,

vishal vora

Get yourself a manual and read it.

Haynes should do one for your bike and it tells you what needs doing at what intervals and how its done. That's how I learned.

Get hold of a copy of Motorcycle and scooter maintenance manual by Hugo Wilson ISBN-7513-0402-6

a very good guide for beginners even if you are not intending to do any work yourself it will give you a good insight into how the thing works
