nice original example, some idiot made a tracker out of one

question for the engineers.
could you re-enforce the sprocket bolts with locktited nuts on the other side of the sprocket carrier? that would also spread the loading away from the holes

TDR forum so quiet.
Kev's having his fuel tank repainted, as it wrinkled over winter (bit like his todger) Hopefully see him soon

TDR forum so quiet.
I go on Carpe TDM and that's very lively, 2 stroke forum is too. sometimes it goes in circles. I remember this site from early days of the RD boys, just them and me. Didn't come back for a while then it exploded when reached a certain critical mass.

tissue roll? nah, do what finners suggest, also invest in a couple of carb cleaner spray cans, they have quite a high pressure too which helps clear jets. You also need to take out the fuel jets to clean properly and best practise is to use a ultrasonic cleaner

still sounds like a fuel issue. when you say cleaned carbs you don't mean they look shiney on the outside? (its been known) maybe your float height needs checking, and did you strip the main jet and emulsion tube and ensured all the miniscule holes are clear?

Potato House
well, when the chips are down......

it might be water in the fuel. ethanol attracts water which sinks to the bottom. just open the float drain plug and get rid of the fuel, then top up with fresh and put an inline fuel filter in too

crap in the fuel, did you fit an inline filter?

Fzr 600 help
your looking for a code something like 6220rs measure the outer race and the spindle for a size and cross reference that way. don't forget there's usually a mushroom spacer that fits inside the sprocket carrier bearing (on the inside) and peeps throw that away with the bearing. and yes you need it as one bike I serviced for a friend had it missing and the bearing was about to fail

Back to bikes
expect this sort of hassle with 125's as they tend to be neglected. mind you I've seen some bodges on my bikes
-
Bike wont idle, will start with revs held, runs rough, tried everything.
tip the head upside down and put petrol/turps in the "bowl" if it drains you need have the valves ground (try those kits first) and retest. if it still does it, the seats will need recutting by an engineer

Wray last night 4/5/17
went to Wray tonight , did about 150 miles round trip and It got a bit cowd later on. My core temp was really low by the time I got in. Took an hour to warm up John McGuiness was there ( nothing official just chilling) and it was a really good night. Went with Billbot (RD350) Brad (350) and a couple of other guys
