    Alright Guys I've FINALLY got hold of my bike, and just in time it's my 17th in a couple of days and i wanna be riding it ASAP... I took off the petrol and oil tanks and cleaned them out, checked for a spark (which was slightly painfull lol) and then put it all back together and filled it up and after a couple of kicks the old girl came to life much to my suprise!! Tomorrow I'll be trying to unseize the clutch (any tips?) and greasing up the wheel bearings (again any tips?) and then i'll be looking at an MOT if it rides ok

    I'm still waiting to get my hand on a truck to bring the bike back to my place as it's about 100 miles away atm but please keep us posted on how you get on because mines practically the same by the sound of it!

    Hi Guys About to start work on my YB100 to get it running again, it has been sitting for years and apparently may have 'seized up', can anyone tell me any common problems i may come across and how to fix them? thanks
