    cool ride, i think the q you need to ask is "what is the width of the the swing arm mount" if it will fit your frame width, the rest you can make fit I'm sure! drewps

    two golfers were on a putting green when a hearse drove by. one golfer took his cap off and bowed his head. The other golfer was amazed at this act of respect and told him so! "its the least i could do for the wife" he said

    you posted in the wrong section, "events and rides outs" where you would find a similar post to yours

    I work in Lax autolease and the best value cars are skodas. Octavia esate springs to mind. still a VW without the badge IMHO
  19. your battery does sound like its on its last legs. this will affect the ignition and starting. the way you describe the non start with electric as opposed with the kick also points in that direction. can you borrow a spare battery? I had bad running last year and a 2 month old battery had given up one of its plates, i thought it were my charging at first. you could invest in an AGM battery, they are smaller(use colsed cell foam to pack out) but last ages and are sealed!! as a test connect up a car battery with the old battery in place (using jump leads) and see what happens drewps
