drewpy

are you from Thailand originally?

I already bagged those

jackson, are you the same jackson in hannah montana?

skip to 52 seconds

the parts do need to be prepped quite well. a bit of linishing does the trick, I know its not possible on bearing surfaces, so i think renewal or chrome is the way to go!

try these speedos

that's what I did when i rebuilt my engine on the xs. put mineral oil in and thrashed it for 20 miles, drained the oil and put in semi synth. had the bike 4 years now and it don't smoke!

Paul in Dorset agree with Blackie, voltage/rectifier grounding out

nice one Patricia

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?

good tip

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

didn't quite come in for the Tomselleckwatersandwich treatment eh Cynic?

I think they all do that, why you want to push the bike back with the bike in gear and engine off (i assume)?

greeting Tom to the YOC

happy birthday for tomorrow

bobbyBBop

so that was you in Kev's tent was it!! Have a great Birfday Mate!

might just be a case of spraying maintenance fluid in there and turning the switch a few times. poss the earth's gone! just need to strip and clean

TC, shit site really, don't bother with it!

to the YOC Rus

use the bike to charge it

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.

good to hear

looking Good Liam, soon be nice weather....
