    I think its just clutch drag, and your going against the direction of the clutch which exasperates the issue! hey hornix did you like the picture I sent you of your dad in retro?
  2. triple s charge about £100 plus postage for powder coating, so that's sounds great. Trust me get it done by motorcycle powder coaters, not garden gate vendors. I had a test peice done from one of the garden gate coaters and it was shite, more orange peel than oranges!! Your would need to csand blast that frame anyway, so let the pro's do it. Just make sure you degrease everything first or the powder will take on a sheen when its heated up. BTW, start looking for new stancions on ebay etc as they will need doing and to rechrome is another £135!! drewps

    use the bike to charge it
  12. I assumed you have checked the bulbs? the neutral and oil connections are both near the output sprocket and as such can be brittle thus break internally if disturbed. I'd earth the leads and see if you get light. then check connection/fuse for power.

    check the rear brake switch, might just need a squirt of wd40 or such gt185. check connections by undoing and reconnecting

    ask the seller what ampage it charges at. Its obviously not an optimate, which will monitor the battery, but for a 6v battery. why don't you just buy a new battery? can't be that much!
  18. did you do anything before hand or it just happened?
  19. drewpy replied to up.yours's topic in Classics
    4.5 amp is way too high for a m/c battery. look for a trickle 1/2 amp, if the first one does it then your ok.
  20. thanks merv, interflora, vistaprint all seem to be in it!
  21. if you look carefully @ 1min 36 secs, there's a red flash streaking past on the right. If you freeze it carefully, its me on my xs400 overtaking
