  2. Hey peeps, im now in need of a towbar to tow a single bike trailer (ive checked, it is under 750kg and is less than the unladen weight of the towing vehicle so i can tow it without taking another test). i have an old hitch unit in the shed, and a frame to mount it to but what point on the car should it be mounted to? help appreciated peeps - Steve

    Traffic lights

    thats weird, i have no problem with traffic lights when im on my little DT50 :/, only thing i can think of is make sure you have pulled right up to the line and are close to the centre of your lane. sorry i cant be more help bud :/
  7. went out on the DT last week, despite the cold it was rather enjoyable... ut for the time being i will stick to the swift, with my windscreen and heater... loverly
  8. can you get galvanising stuff in an aerosol? , would be mint if i could find some and get the DT back in the workshop

    K&N

    dont bother, had one on my DT50 and gave me some tuning problems so i gave it to a mate for his ped, either drill some more holes in your standard air filter or find an aftermarket foam filter
  10. nah, orange lights and a few glowsticks, would be a rave
  11. Hmmm, doubt the girlies would like the look of earphones/earplugs... :/
  12. hey peeps just been outside to start the DT up and make sure everything is fine, ended up getting the twitches and had to grab my helmet (giggity) and take it for a spin, got back and decided to give the (new) swingarm a scrub down to remove a bit of the salt and sh*t from the roads, noticed that although the new swingarm has only been on for a month or two its already going rusty, and when i scrubbed the rust off the paint also came off with it. now rather than take the swingarm off and respray it every couple of months would it be possible to powdercoat it for a bit more protection?, ive already had one swingarm rust through in a year and replacements are getting harder to find, so does anyone know where i can get powdercoating done, at what price and would it be possible to do a DIY jobby?
  13. fuse on the sub is 20 amp and the fuse on the 6x9s amp is 60 amp, ive now installed the 8 AWG cable anyway because a buddy of mine had a load left over from wiring in his sound system as for the swift being able to run the stereo then not sure how to check that, so far it has been fine and is able to run the stereo with a good volume at low-revs (cruisin through town picking up the ladies ) and i havent noticed any strobin (headlights dimming in sequence with the subwoofer), if i do get into any difficulties i will look in to swapping the alternator for something a bit more substantial (off the top of my head, maybe the 1.6/2.0 suzuki vitara). will look up the amps spec sheet now...
  14. i tihnk what he means is that it will crank over on the starter but not run under its own power, if it wont start pull the choke out until it will, but i never need to use the choke on my DT even on days like today :/ (but mines running rich anyway)
  15. nothing wrong with porn BH, i myself think its an art! ... that's my excuse and im sticking to it... 'nuff said
  16. Hey peeps i know this is a Yammy forum but need some help/advice with the sound system in my swift. basically i got a 500w subwoofer currently plugged in and running on a 10/12AWG power cable (supports maximum 800w), also got a 680w Amplifier for my 6x9s but these aren't connected to the stereo (waiting on an extra RCA cable). now, the sub and the speakers together are rated 1100w maximum output, so i cannot run both on my existing power cable. im swapping the existing power cable to the sub to a heavier 8AWG (1500w) cable tomorrow, im then planning to run the smaller 800w cable to my 6x9s' amp (piggybacking the spades from my subs amp), would this create problems for my sub amp by using the terminals to run my other amp?, and also would i be able to wire up the amp but leave it disconnected from the speakers or would this damage the amp? (as i said im only waiting on the RCA cable and dont really have the facilities i need on the base during the week) any help appreciated, i can upload a wiring diagram if you want aswell - Steveo
  17. imports maybe? :/, just a stab in the dark, Yammy dealer is probs the way to go tbf,
  18. make sure you re-jet aswell dont want another DT moment
  19. fuck me sideways peeps (no pun intended), i dont think i'd have had the balls to do that, now i see why peeps were complaining about this weather, luckily we havent had that over here although i did have a f*ckin close miss about half hour ago on the A-roads, little swift slipped into the tyremarks in the snow and came within an inch of a passing car... could have been messy even at low speed :/ need a cuddle from Goff now...
  20. ebay is your best bet mate as they do pop up frequently, do you know if yours is the TK or Mikuni carb? (there should be visible markings/logos on the carb to help identification)
  21. reminds me of going to school on my DT last year, knobbly tyres FTW IMHO XD, if only i could find a set to fit the swift...
  22. watch what you say fella... could end up gettin' a slap... ¬¬
