Squires 2013?
Come on Foamy! You always post one of these and as soon as the date is known you pretend say that you have the carrot crunchers steam rally the same weekend. 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!!!!

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

This is a nice friendly forum
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.

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.

XT125X Problem
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.

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