Not advisable to run around naked mate. Remember Kev goes to Squires and you could wake up never knowing.........................if you know what I mean!!!!

    Check the connections to the bulbs behind the headlight. Spray a little wd40 into the switchgear.

    +1 for the bobber idea. Welcome to the forum.
  5. I am sorry that the forum fell short of your expectations. Some people join and go and some people stay a while. To be honest I am not sure what you expected but if this forum isn't for you then so be it. Writing what you wrote will not change that. It does smack of being a little immature though. Please don't slam the door on your way out and good luck in finding that utopian forum you are searching for.

  9. I've never burnt my belly on an exhaust and that is heading south!
  10. Soften the plastic by getting the exhaust hot. Wood block (not ply) and solvol should do it. Oh yeh............................. keep plastics away from hot exhausts.

    Moved to the workshop. Spark, fuel and compression are all you need. The timing has to be right also so check the compression and the timing. What exactly happend if you pour fuel into the plug hole and try and start it? Cylinders can get flushed of oil so leave the plug out for a while and try a little clean engine oil down the bore and turn it over with the plug out. Then take the air filter out and squirt some wd40 into the carb and push the starter.

    Hi Ray. Welcome to the forum. "Bike rebuilding" and "2 stroke" in the same sentence. There is a hard core of people like you on here so pull up a pew and make yourself comfortable.

    2 things I can think of are: It is a very cheap chain the adjusters are moving

    No. They stretch a fair bit when new but with a good lube they tend to settle down very quickly.
