  1. the owner was a Mr T C McCulley, long disappeared now! try writing to the dvla for past owners, its a fiver and you have to give a good reason ( for mine I said i was researching the bike as it was being restored) I'd dream on and imagine the bike in that film

    well I got another pressie today courtisy of a fellow member of the sports moped forum. a 5 speed seized engine I'm hoping that left cover will fit mine as that will save me £50 for a new one, or if your daft, £100 for 2nd hand on eBay I'm off Friday and Monday so hope to strip it down and see what I have. Already I can see an unrestricted inlet worth at least £20 Off to pick up some zinc from Unity in Oldham tomorrow morning before work (they open at 5:30am)

    wonder if the xj600 fits the FZ600? same engine, but the mounts?
  4. so you want to lower the engine revs for the same speed? put a 13 on the front BTW you can get sprockets made, not really a big deal, JT's in Wales do them and I'm sure there's someone stateside
  5. that first pic is sooo photoshopped, her feet are nearly bigger than the wheel
  6. all good fun. I love building bikes but money, time and somewhere to do it always gets in my way
  7. one for our northern bretheren The Carole Nash Great Scottish Bike Show takes place at Lanark Agricultural Centre, Hyndford Road, Lanark, on Saturday, May 11, and Sunday, May 12. http://www.classicbikeshows.com/press.asp?uid=356&showcode=GSS13
  8. 3.1 was ace... still remember upgrading DOS to 6.1 with 6 floppies
  9. I remember the Combe Martin M/c Collection as I lived in Combe Martin for 5 years. In fact I lived across the road from it more or less Can't remember seeing that there though. to the forum
  10. lowering your gear ratios overall will raise the revs! you want a higher gear on the front sprocket ie 12 up to 13 teeth or lower on the rear ie 33 to 32 teeth that will lower the engine revs for cruising A taller front sprocket is better as the chain will have a longer circumference to go round and have an easier life. 1 tooth on the front also = about 3 teeth on the rear.
  11. there is another engine on Gumtree ATM in Manchester £45 http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/rxs-100-complete-engine-carb-exhaust-manchester-45/1008109956 he's about 2 miles from where I live so may have other bits too
  12. why do you want to lower your gearing? is it bogging down on you?
