  1. saw that, its a mess and IMHO not worth it. Anyway was got given a 5 speed engine with free delivery
  2. Oxford products have been pretty good and I have an optimiser and its worked for the last 10 years no problem. can't see why this one would be different
  3. V for vendetta, its cool with the proletariat ATM
  4. sounds like great fun, I do like the 400 class of bikes
  5. I did cams late last year and managed to swap an ex for an inlet and just purchased one shim. you don't get a lot of thickness's so yam gives a range for the gap also when the head settles and you re torque, guess what? you do them again
  6. nice, are those arrows on the cam caps supposed to point to the cam sprockets?
  7. they are, All Italian bikes used the same filter at some point
  8. was off today so dialled in the timing on the little G, finished off all the wiring (all works) awaiting the chain then I can tighten up the mag properly. Still need to find a Dellorto filter (steel one) 32mm female thread. something like this; found the tank was like sand inside I soaked the inside with vinegar and I think this is the rust particulates. I have some acid stuff from the FZ tank, so i'll have a go with that and fill up with pre mix, to stop the rust reforming.
  9. The 15th Classic & Modern Japanese & European Motorcycle Show at Donnington Park February 2nd Admission Prices £10.00 per Adult £3.00 per Child (7-14yrs) Under 7s Free

  11. did anyone listen to steve Berry on Manchester real xs? he played bat out of hell and then played, what sounded like a KH triple sound bite

  13. reminds me of this doing the rounds ATM http://anothernobodyslife.com/2012/10/05/dear-neighbor/
  14. you can make one from a G clamp and an old socket. Plenty of info on the net
  15. close one eye, then open it when the car passes. may help, although if peeps saw you, you would be a bit of a winker
  16. it was a safety vid, it said so in the text accompanying the video. Just went a bit pear shaped thanks for the update
  17. its real, but they were making a safety video (in the fog) hence the multi camera angles
  18. looking very nice. cleanliness is paramount here. read the manual twice before putting it all together and ensure you have a torque wrench handy
  19. I liked the jumpy guy presenting his bollocks to the bike rider
