  1. I have a hardtail chop - it's a bit bouncy but not too bad. Have seen quite a few Harleys done this way, I'd say just make sure you use decent quality materials. might be worth asking on the Britchopper forum as i'm sure someone on there will have run a bike on struts.
  2. Hi folks, this is my first post (apologies I'm already asking for help). I have a 125 Dragstar that I'm trying to get running again for a friend. He has the usual carb joint perishing issues which i've bodged briefly while he saves up the cash to get a replacement, but I've run in to a little issue when putting the tank back on (yep - should've paid more attention to the fuel hoses when I disconnected them ). I have 3 hoses coming off the fuel tap - the one that lets fuel out in prime and then one that comes off what i assume to be the vacuum for the main supply to the fuel pump, however, there is a T piece in the short length of hose from this. I can only find 2 hoses/connections on the bike though - a hose that goes straight to the carb (I assume this is for the prime) and a hose that goes to the fuel pump. Can someone tell me where the other hose goes coz I can't find a connector for it? Once I've got this sussed I'm going to try getting it running, but have a feeling I'm going to have to strip an' clean the carb and fuel pump (or bypass the fuel pump until he gets a new one as i think he's damaged/knackered it by running out of petrol twice). Thanks in advance for any advice you can give and apologies again for coming straight on for help.
