    going well, don't forget that BBQ paint needs a lot of heat to cure and Its supposed to be done within an hour of being painted (well my stuff did)

    its not about annealing, but refacing the wear. Stellite is a chrome based weld which is so hard only grinding can remove the material.

    just had a quote to stellite and grind the selector fork from SEP.....£70 + VAT
  5. getting it from ESB Bolton, pick up from work and save £4 off eBay good luck with the shoot Kev
  6. love to sneak the express through there unannounced
  7. My mate used a reverse bid auction site for couriers and got an engine delivered 200 miles for £60 I used them meself and paid £30 for an engine case with bits to send to Carl http://www.uship.com/uk/
  8. of course, I need to replace the output oil seal as its pouring out of there ATM. I'm off tomorrow (worked today) so I'll visit a bearing stockist.

    the bike's spewing oil out ATM, its the output seal but it took a few mins running the engine to find it. the back tyre and me/bike/public are covered in 20w/50 I'm off work tomorrow so should be able to source one and replace. vid to follow

    that's Foams for ya, the kid has no staying power
  11. bloody awful, no direction and looks a deathtrap
  12. I know about that dodge, who knows if the rim gets squashed and develops unseen cracks. I'd rather have a pro do mine thanks
  13. I had a lovely 80's Bell helmet, but the plastic just fell apart after a bit. you should be able to get Modern helmets retro styled (but they cost)
  14. how does he get the power down on the scoot?
  15. drewpy replied to drewpy's topic in Classics
    thanks Gazzy, the yoshi is now installed and sounds great
  16. tubed tyres I do myself, but tubless I take to a specialist as they have the force necessary to move that sidewall on/off the rim

  18. I campedwith my daughter at 9 months in a tent, she loved it. just got to watch her though, she mooch off through the tent exploring
  19. fork seals don't pop, in fact they are a real bitch to get out. They leak because there is a minute erosion between the rubber and the stanchion along with pressure from the compressed forks, forces oil past the seals. with all that gunge, its def due for renewal.
  20. no idea what you just replaced as you didn't actually mention it! what worked loose? the valves are pretty good unless they hit the top of the piston for some reason and then they bend. things like collets (cotters to you?) will be fine unless damaged
  21. TIP: spray water on the tent, it acts like a fridge and cools the inside
  22. drewpy replied to jimmy's topic in General
    he's not a Yank and would probably resemble that remark
  23. Henry Cole did the john o groats/lands end thing and was just been shown on TV, maybe worth checking out as I'm sure its repeat
