    I'm not. Stuck on the starter motor. Just looking in my manual.

    Told you I didn't have a clue, now that side needs a new gasket.

    Just as I thought am unable to do fuck all! I drained the oil and took the clutch cover off and apart from getting oil all over my path, I have been unable to notice anything. http://s990.photobucket.com/albums/af25/jordangrace_photos/?action=view&current=ee4846c78cf37e7e0f1729937e9ca2ea_zpsbd55aed7.jpg

    I got that fed up with it I lost interest for a few weeks and then I had to order some nuts and bolts to keep the gear lever and kick start on when riding it to my friends for him to look at it. There's no point in me starting to take it apart when I don't know what I'm doing. I have looked in my Haynes and it looks confusing. I would end up causing more damage. I suppose I can take the cover off and just look.

    Spend all year round riding, snow, sleet, constant rain, extreme cold and as soon as summer comes my bike is fucked. Fucking typical.
  8. I have stooped nodding at other bikers until they nod at me first. I kept nodding with no nod back and it made me feel a right idiot.
  9. Noise unlike me at least your blessed with mechanical know how and can fix her yourself.
  10. How much are the CDI's? Unless they're expensive might be a worth a gamble.
  11. Sorry to hear that mate, at least your not the YOC laughing stock.

    Unfortunately for you lot you will never get rid of me and my cursed machine muhahaha

    No Tommy its not the bolt. The bolt just keeps the lever on the shaft. I can still change gear without the bolt but eventually the lever will fall off the shaft.

    Sorry guys................ My friend is going to help me but I need to get the bike to his. I don't want to do it in my garden because I live on a busy street and I don't want a gang of kids and neighbours coming over to annoy me while I work on it. Anyway was on my way to start working on it and the fucking gear lever fell off! Yes can you believe it! The bolt somehow come loose and fell out, a few weeks earlier the same thing happened to the kickstart. So I am just currently waiting for the new bolt to come as I had to order it. I started her up yesterday as she's been stood for a while and there was too much oil in her, she was smoking bad so I had to drain some. It says ion my Haynes that I have to take the starter motor off before I take the clutch cover off, also do I need to drain all the oil out?

    My name reflects my short temper and lack of patience.
