Finally !!
Thanks Mervin , I'll see if I can find out . As far as I know there's a few bikes and the Banshee Quad all sharing the same set up .

Finally !!
At last ! I managed to get hold of an LC tank in fairly good nick . It's got some filler , scratches and small dents but no rust as far as I can see . I'll enjoy rubbing it back into shape and I'll get saving for a mitaka clutch kit and a set of gearbox bearings . I'm thinking yellow for the tank . Any one out there got any LC gear selector forks lying around ?? Two of mine are shagged .

Slightly bent handlebars
I've "fixed" slightly bent handlebars by inserting a length of solid bar into the bar end and levering the bar back to where it was supposed to be . Careful though , it's easy to overdo it .

Cylinder hone?
You'll just need to take the glaze off the bore , a very light hone . A rub with some Scotchbrite would do the job . I've had a new ring break because I neglected to do this .

Adjustable clutch lever for wrist pain?
Try slackening the cable slightly so the biting point is when the lever is closer to the bar ,

running without muffler
There's a company called Hi Level that do a large range of aftermarket exhausts . I just got one for the CG , very reasonably priced and the quality looks pretty good . Check 'em out .

worlds most dangerous rides
The best , if not all that dangerous , ride I've done was the Leh - Manali highway in India (over 3 miles above sea level in some parts ). On an Enfield Bullet . Google it . Great fun . The road in the sky .

DT125 plug chop results, running lean?
Hahaaa! Oh God , this brings me back to my youthful days of blind enthusiasm and blissful ignorance . A little knowledge truly is a dangerous thing . There's a book on Two Stroke tuning by a bloke called Bell , if you can find it (and then understand it ) it'll tell you all you need to know . Or ,alternatively, leave well enough alone .

Yamaha RS100
Hi ele , that little bike looks pretty much all there so don't go nuts spending money on it just yet . Get it running and tidy up what's there and by then you'll know exactly what's needed . Yambits UK will have most of what you need and there is a wealth of experience and good advice on here . The RS was a cracking little bike and yours could be too with some tlc and plenty of elbow grease . Best of luck .

Deal or no deal
Why is he getting rid I wonder ? Remember , you never know what you've bought until you get the seat and tank off for a good look .

running without muffler
Loudness does not equal speed . And you'll find you can only hear the tv at full volume , faintly .

As I write....
Any of you lads ever pop over for the roadracing ? It's a good weekend , cheap enough if you don't mind camping . Some buzz sitting in the hedge watching (and feeling the breeze) as the boys go past at 200+ in the old money . Plenty of classic and vintage racing that you won't see on tv , bring yer earplugs .
