ok yesterday my bike when getting up to about 60 feels like it goes then like holds back and it doesnt really rev past 8K i have never had a problem with it getting up to 75 and revving freely to the red line never taken it over apart from the odd accident. its hard to explain what its like but at about 58Mph it starts holding back then going then holding back whats the problem? any ideas? i thought it could be a clogged air filter so i took it out sprayed carb cleaner on it blew it out with a air line and it doesnt seem much better at all? please send ur suggestions thnx

hmm yer could work i wasnt on about a copper washer i was talking a gasket to cover to whole mating surface then cut a hole for the bit of the dep pipe that sticks out to go through its a big eye shape let me no how u get on

Hello just to let you no how the saga of the test is going! iv been ringing up and told theres no tests in the future until they are annoced in two weeks time when the new test is sooooooooooo i asked where they had a availible slot turns out Bristlington Bristol theres me expecting atleast a week or so nope next wednesday! so i booked it and am now panicing iv never even been to Bristlington bristol and i cant get any tution as its way to short notice im going on a pot luck theory! Im pretty poistive that if fail iv got a insight as to how a test goes lala etc as iv never done anything so serious (not even a car test got that on the 29th August) so i dont really no the butterfly feelings and stuff but if i fail il be more prepared for the new test becuase iv done this totaly unprepared and off the cuff how ever if i pass it will be a punt a lucky punt a the moment i think iv got atleast 50% 50% chance becuase im pretty sure i can ride a bike but not sure if all the feelings of being assesd will take over. but we'll see and il let you all no now iv got to find Brislington test centre i sure its about 30ish miles away ruffley il let you all no how i get on p.s on my test i am aloud to use bus lanes right..

wow makes it look not so cheap now he told me 80 for the frame or all of it for 100 inc masking and blasting

i here where your both coming from! its so stupid but we all no them type of people have never came off before cuz they definatly wont be wearing that type of stuff again will they...
