  1. Hi and are you in uk? you didnt fill your profile in.
  2. Tez you have to open your own photobucket account here Then follow the instructions here to place pictures in the forum It might seem a bit daunting at first but it's not...it's dead easy when you get the hang of it
  3. you have to upload the to photobucket, like I said see 'New members'...'FAQ's'
  4. Please...if you do that...just place it onto the CZ175 Trail and video it for us

    yeah thats incredible, must be shot now though eh?
  6. what it will mean is this... If it's set to a restricted position it will be prevented from opening fully, ie raising the exhaust port top fully. Therefore power output will be reduced, it is there as a restriction because governments have imposed restrictions on what power output learner riders are allowed to have available. If you are a learner rider and find yours is in a restricted position I am not advocating you change it in any way...I am just showing you what can be possible when you pass your test
  7. It will make the difference between 55 mph and 70 mph sure enough. Undo your pulley bolt and slowly draw it back to see if yours PV is the diamond ended one, you may be able to do it with the cables still attached I cant remember and anyway I detached mine of course for the photos Then set as to what you have learned in post#31 if it applies to yours
  8. Good luck mate take care if it's wet
  9. I saw you have a full DEP exhaust which is good. So now im wondering about your PV, there were two types, mine has a diamond shape on the end of the PV so it can be set to a restricted position. Have a good read of that part of my de-restrict topic it describes the correct position with pictures yours may be the same as mine. Others are just parallel sided and so are set right or 180 degrees out ( which would totally wreck any performance)
  10. Looks good to me , and we do appreciate intro's here iSoupz
  11. I am that 'dad' also only I never got without mine...tell him, he must get one!!
  12. I had a quick read of your link, I am unsure about your problem...is your bike slow or is the speedo out...which is it?
  13. Fill in your profile Gaz...where are you? Edit: ok so youre not from Godley then wich is just down the road from me
  14. a picture would help tez if you know how...see 'New Members'...'FAQ's'
  15. Greetings Gaz a 2003 bike eh...just like mine ...Paul
  16. Gaz..an intro? We have a forum 'New members'
  17. It's a great shame you cut it off you could have gotten it off without damaging it! Take the grips and your bike back to the shop...perhaps they will fit them? By the way it would be a tight fit you know or the gripp would slip abaout on the throttle body...fitting would also be a straight push on...not a twist and push in any way.
  18. Greetings Rick get yourself a manual, there will be all kinds of set-up tips in there, from engine tuning to really general roadworthiness stuff. you may be interested in this site...you can get a manual there too http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/Yamaha/FZR_1000_Genesis__2LA/87-88/
  19. Pat they are different internal diameter arent they, sure your trying the right one? Do not remove or damage the black plastic throttle grip or you wont be 'going anywhere fast' You will have to remove the silver bar end on the laft side like you did the right, looks like the new grips have fancy chrome closed ends so wont be able to go over this.

    How about this young Steve http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-DT50-DT-50-SALVAGE-PROJECT-SPARES-REPAIR-TS-/110715030301?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item19c7214b1d
  23. you heard this clicking when trying to bumpstart the bike? Could it be the chain is so loose/worn it was jumping the teeth on the sprocket?
  24. Dont force it Dan, It sounds like it's a different thread. Take the original with you to compare when buying one. If you offer up the threads of each nipple you may see them start to run out instead of mating up with each other exactly.
