I think it could be a good thing that a 13-year-old has fathered a child. If it all goes wrong and he ends up joining 'Fathers 4 Justice', he'll save a fortune on finding a fitting Spiderman costume.

what rims fit what tyres HERE

pictorial story so far..... cut rear frame rails and test mounted speedo tried custom tank, but figure its too big, seat is great though bought a DT125 tank and looks better, fitted custom forks which are longer and fitted longer rear shocks bought from stafford bike show last year Cut and welded a Motad exhaust I'm keeping the bars clean I will mount the horn push inside the bar end and fit an ATE BMW master cylinder, so i figure i will need a bespoke tank making now I'm after some flat track type tyres, carbs are brand new from a dohc xs400 and I made new brackets as these were too narrow. swing arm needs to be cut narrower to fit and have sourced new needle bearings to suit xs400 shaft, biggest job will be the tank methinks, although sometimes to little jobs become HUGE ones!! drewps

fork spring out, forks compressed and mark the measuring apperatus (a metal tube i had laying around) pour in oil till it hits the bottom of the tube. If you overfill it you can use the the tube to extract by merely sealing the end with thumb and lifting out the fluid in the tube.

Hi Ally to the forum I think those clutches work by centrifugal force low revs disconnect and a Vee belt is gradually spun out of the pulley to give a higher gear. it may rattle a bit as the fulcrum bob weights move around in the clutch. that's all I can remember about auto gears from when I was a YOOF many moons ago drewps

your supposed to take the fuel tank off (have to, to get to the intake) use a small container with a tube to the carb.

problem is kids are empowered with no moral guidence or repercussions. they know their rights and being a minor can drum up all sorts of trouble for adults. My wife runs an after school club and there are really really weird and disturbed kids out there. My wife tells the parents there's a problem (eg shitting themselves aged 8 and spreading it all over the walls etc) and say its not their child!!! WTF? no parenting skills at and only interested in their own selfish world without a child. then that parent "treats" them to a McDonalds!! I could go on but I'm getting too wound up now!!!

I've just averted being killed on the roads today, by not riding my bike or going outside at all! now that can be a proven fact and is 100% effective.

I followed the "minton mods" for xs650 and filled to 6" from the top, slightly harder ride but better on the brakes and road holding
