    Common problem. I cut mine out but sometimes brute force works.

    Hi and welcome to the forum. Sorry I can't help with the question but there are a few RXS owners around who may be able to help.
  4. Hi and welcome to the forum. I used to work in "Chessie". Used to frequent "the Spire" a fair bit and used to stay in the Portland hotel, I think it is just a pub now..
  5. Hi and welcome Daniel.

    I am not sure if it will work but have you considered an Abba stand with the swingarm removal fitting kit?

    Hi Daniel, As already advised, it is always best to say hello in the new members section. The question can't be answered on here due to the amount of information required. I would also look at comparison sites to get some indication of cost. Insurers will use a variety of information to give you a quote. This will include: Your post code Any bile security If the bike is garaged If you have any adverse driving history What level of cover you wanted (TPO, TPFT, fully comp) Bike value Plus loads more.

    It would take me 2 minutes to set up a forum, and I mean 2 minutes. The issue is getting people onto it. The tinterweb is full of dead or very slow forums

    Does the starter or relay make a clicking sound? If so you need to clean all of the starter and relay terminals. You already said that the battery was charged but can you also jump the bike off another battery?

    If it has a side stand, put this down first as you can rest the bike straight onto it once the bike is off the main stand.

    Fleabay is possibly your best bet for a subframe. It may be a case of just looking until one turns up. You need to explain the start up issues a little better. I get that the lights dim. Does the bike turn over? If so, fast or slow. Does the starter of relay just click? Have you checked the plugs for sparks and changed the fuel? Have you taken the plugs out and pushed the bike in gear to see if the engine is not seized?

    One of the best looking bikes. Ever. Does he want to swap it for one of my kidneys?

    If you look where the 2 sections of the switch assembly you can see where these part (once you get the screws out) join. You can normally gauge how much of the bolt will be left once you cut the head off by looking at the distance between the bottom of the bolt head and the where the 2 sections join.

    Its a real dead ringer for love............................It should be fun to insure. Have you got a V5 with the right frame number on it?
  20. Hi and welcome to the forum. I can't answer any questions about the current bike licensing but I am sure someone will be along soon to help out.

    Just working from the 5m6 number Nev. Someone in the past may have stamped the engine with a DT50 number in case they got stopped by the police. I concur with the 3BN on the engine - 1988 DT125 (France).
