  1. The same amount of time it takes to add 20p per litre That pug looks like my 'Casper' when he was a much younger chap (14 now, deaf, grey and dont see so good these days)
  2. OK then change the plugs and try again. My suzuki Bandit is always a pig to get going after a winter lay off, I have to leave it to warm up and at first it doesnt fire on all 4. However as it warms I find i can open the throttle more and more until it runs properly. During normal use though I dont have to do any of this. Good luck, Oh and an oil change would be advised soon as well (check the level at first oppotunity)
  3. How many carbs, is it only one? I wouldnt rush into dismantling it if it is just one because one pot runs fine. is there a 'PRI' (Prime) position on the fuel cock? if there is, try that for a while.
  4. Greetings madpig, trikes the worst of both worlds to me, pissed wet through and stuck in the traffic. Having said that, if you love bikes ...

    Should it have a brake light, even for a daytime MOT? doesnt seem a good idea to not have one .
  9. Shame about the tank and exhaust, dont throw them if there is a remote chance of repair yet eh?

    Try oiling the disk brake Only joking of course Does it even have a disc at the back?
  21. Greetings Bry, YBR is a great little bike (apart from the squeeks)
  22. Nice one Pat, looks a minter ....until next winter
  23. The point is...only use it for an initial clean, it's abrasive. use washing and waxing on a regular basis to keep it nice.
  24. Best way for me would be a good chrome cleaner, I use 'Belgom Chroom' and follow that by regular applications of Rim Wax. I would use this on both rims and spokes. Dont persist on using abrasives on the spokes as they will only ever come up to a certain standard and if they are rusty...thats it, replace or be happy
