  2. youll get used to it kev its like this thread here, the chap was pleading for help so i trawled the archives and gave the best advice i could, thank you?...I think not! almost two weeks have gone by now!!! i did smash a few windows in the house last week but i'm getting on top of the situation now
  3. jayne see new members FAQ's for posting photos
  4. keep an eye on the level in the reservoir though...dont let the level get too high in there or get it on your paitwork youll need some small tube wired on to the nipple and syringe, if it leaks from the nipple thread you may have to seal it with ptfe tape. Take care you dont blow the syringe or tube off its fixing and thereby spill fluid on your disk or pads...for that matter take precautions and mask them off first
  5. bloody hell he's an excitable chap

  7. yeah syringe it in through the bleed nipple,

  9. wow 500 miles, now thats some ride, a holiday?
  10. Sara saludos y bienvenida, con la potencia de Google que puede mantenerse en contacto
  11. yes that would do it, should be an easy and cheap fix, just get a new connector
  12. hey morph, did you give up on XVS you bought? the one they wantad to charge delivery for?
  13. have you checked your oil level dude? hmmm an intro is always a good start on a forum too
  14. we have a project section if you want to show off your skills
  15. yeah and just double check the crank seal again, you implied evidence of a change before...see it it's repeatable, just so long as you can get her started
  16. greetings dt50, stick around and enjoy your stay...i've not forgot ( keep an eye out for a seat) wheres ya from then sheffield?
  17. if the head gasket is the culprit you will see the engine temp hotter than usual but have you still got a temperature indicator on the bike? also the collant level will be reducing and if very bad you may have bubbling in the expansion tank base gasket? well thats an easy one to check with the WD40 also might as well try them wizzer eh
  18. yes it usually is youll be able to see when you get the rotor off. you'll need a proper rotor puller...dont be hitting it with a hammer lol. the trick is to carefully screw in a couple of self tapping screws at opposite sides of the seal, then warm the area slightly if possible and pull on the screws alternately all this is just a guess but its often the case
  19. lol look at this one, why not message him and ask if you can pick up personally from california DTLC barrel £760 postage from Keighley west Yorks http://www.ebay.co.u...ME:B:SS:GB:1123
  20. if its a seal it will be the one on the left behind the flywheel rotor. 1: is there any petrol / oil in the magneto area? 2: Try spraying WD40 through the gaps in the rotor when she's running...aim at the seal....does it affect speed or tone from the engine?
  21. Greetings Cerd try the search facility perhaps? so you YBR is the YBR Custom?... a fast one
  22. i'll keep an eye out dave, full seat or just a cover?
