Low oil level?

You have worn fork selectors which you can change.

It could be fuel starvation. When you filled up with fuel, you might have taken up some dirt or released some that's got into the lines, fuel tap or carbs. Try cleaning it all and put fresh fuel in.

Take the fuse out and do a continuity check on it.

The motors on the 'plane weigh 6 tons each, 10 feet in diameter and produce 80,000 lbs of thrust. Your FS1 would get up to about 300 miles an hour but the fuel tank would be empty in about 1 second.

Make your eyes water!

You should expect an error on the speedo of not more than 10%.

Two up, 122 mph = six months. Nothing wrong with 122 mph but the pillion passenger only had a helmet on for safety and it was wet.

Sound like its running too rich. You need to service the carb.

That has got to hurt!

Well you can now buy a 2009 Divi and keep it for best!

As always, buyer beware.

You can rent bikes in Miami, just make sure you take your license.

This is the wrong stuff to use. You need to use a penetrating fluid and give it time. The item has seized due to corrosion so you need to penetrate that. When you re-assemble put some grease on the bolt.

If the spark plugs are firing, the engine must start. If not then you have low compression. If the plugs are not firing but the engine turns over on the starter, then it's the kill switch.

What year?

I made a mistake. It's 2010 that compulsory daylight lighting starts. I find this very worrying as the standard of driving in this country (UK) is now down to third world standards.

It matters not about on or off because in 2011 it will be compulsory to have daylight driving lights.

Go to the local station and make sure you have your docs with you. Then you can make a complaint.

You must go to the police and report this accident. If he goes to hospital and has witnesses you might be in trouble. Anyway you have to report the accident so that you can make a complaint and sue for damages. He must live close by and have a habit of being on that bit of road at that time. Wait for him.

Have you checked all your breather pipes for blockage? Even transfer ports within the engine can get blocked. All of these will cause pressurisation and weeping bolts.

There are several things that cause poor cold starting. The two that stand out are poor battery and lower compression. The combination of the two will prove painful.

I think the shaft drive system is being pressurised by the gearbox. It might be that the engine/gearbox vent pipes are blocked causing the whole crankcase to be pressurised which has then blown the seal on the gearbox output shaft. Either that or you have gearbox oil leaking into the shaft area. Same seal.

The Moon must have been brighter!!!

I still like my tyre valve stem idea the best. You have to do all four though.
