  1. I'll put it on and see how it feels, it should be ok until I can get some proper lube.

    Have my bike on the road and it will never let me down again
  3. Haven't got any, I'm going to pour a little bit of oil down the sleeve.
  4. I more or less have now, after this the bike should be fine.
  5. My cable has come, I'm going to fit it tomorrow. I hope it goes smoothly. I'm going to attempt the tie it at the bottom method.
  6. Wow seems very expensive even if you do the work yourself the parts will cost a bit.
  7. It's for smuggling contraband through customs
  8. Could be your forks that are bent
  9. Handle bars are bent, got to be, unless the fixings on top of the yoke are knackered.
  10. I can but it would be a ball ache, I'd probably drain it first as well.
  11. That's what I thought. Snotty bastards, you should make a complaint to the manager.
  12. That's the method I was planning on using. I'm just worried about interfering with the carb, I hope I don't fuck it up.
  13. £15 for a throttle cable and the housing, so not bad. Just need to fit it myself and I've never done it before.
  14. You'll probably get some off eBay.

    dt running again.

    Hopefully the weather will pick up now
  16. Wow Prichard it seems your intent on owning the fastest XT 125, go for it but remember to notify your insurer lmao
  17. No effin way! I have just ordered a replacement and I am doing it myself. I have consulted my manual and it has no mention of tank removal. I have to remove the seat that's it I think. I had planned on attempting your idea Slice. Hopefully the job will go smoothly.
  18. Ffs. I better consult my Haynes. I suppose if its got to be done, or I could just book her in the garage haha.
  19. WHAT??? You better be winding me up! I've just filled the tank up and I'm not fucking about with it!
  20. On my way home from work my throttle cable has snapped ffs. Not a biggy but a massive inconvenience. Don't worry I'm going to replace it myself.
  21. They said my excess is £950 and if I pay the extra £8 a month it will be nothing and I will also have a guaranteed NCB for 2 years even if I have an accident.
  22. No and tbh I thought this thread looked dodgy with all the 1 post wonders contributing to it. It looks like the same person with multiple accounts.
