Tommy xs

Look forward to seeing this finished! well any of your projects finished would be nice

got my bike back together tonight so far cleaned the carbs fitted new HT leads which bye the way are real pain to fit on my bike as the coils are tucked right up inside the backbone of the frame, getting them out was easy but getting them back in was a nightmare changed the rear tyre still got to do the front one but the tyre on there is almost new so no real hurry though, will do it soon so I have a paired set on. Changed oil and filter also had to change oil filter cover as original one was damaged lucky i had a spare one off another motor I have finally got the exhaust gaskets today and fitted the new exhaust. I haven't started her since I cleaned the carbs last week will have a go in the morning as I didn't finish it after 11 tonight

Welcome to YOC Liam, post your questions in the workshop section your more likely to get a reply there

Think Drewpy came up with the aswer to this here

Only a matter of time the way DDT is spending

I am! I'm a deep shade of green

Maybe next year!! love the sound and the smell

One thing about this one Drew, its a good ride there & back

should that read chilly dips (Finger licken good)

so If you ever fall off while vlogging post it here we all love to see that!! as above but only managed about 30 secs sorry mate.

Sounds sweet to me but I've never owned a 2 stroke

true' but I'm sure I worded it right

Sorry to see this thread slip into the abyss. thought there would have been more input (not yours Foamy) Wonder what ever happened to Ian ?

Maybe the clock came with the motor? it's doubtful a bike has gone through 2 colour change's and a replaced motor in 17k but like you say you just don't know, you just have to go on what you have but sounds like a real bargain oh yes said this when you got your last one they always look better in yellow

the Foamy Cave will be full of Kev

Well done Dt, what was the original colour then ?

yeah I remember now, I did say on the day I didn't have a clue were I was going

All clear! I really must have been tired the other night I hadn't removed the sump plug for some reason, my mind was telling me the bolt for the filter was the sump plug they are right next to each other but that's no excuse just plain stupid anyhow I need a new gasket for the strainer plate as it's started leaking after I'd done the oil change ordered one with a few other bits last night from Fowlers also bought 1 new fork stanchion for only £30 off ebay but that's for future use found another on Wemoto for £120 but can't justify the the funds at the moment. all the little bits I've been buying are adding up and need to save some money for my Scotland trip.

Sounds just like home

That fowler site is brilliant as you said Merv I just copied the part no's from cmsnl & pasted them straight into fowlers site its a lot cheaper and a lot of parts available and the postage is very reasonable too! thanks again for the tip

wasn't that the one we were on are way to last year till your bike started showering me in oil?

better for that yoke to crack now than later mate

Lookin into that Drew, been busy decorating son's room today will get out in garage in a bit for a couple of hours

Ahh the explains a lot hehehe

I know people will probably cringe but when my bike was only about six months old the frame started to show signs of rust near the joints I was only a young ​inexperienced lad back then and don't think there was that much to choose from so I hammerited it with a brush, looked like glass when I'd done it and its still on today, it no longer looks like glass but there are still no signs of rust only problem is getting the stuff off to redo it with something else.
