I use modern oils in mine without problem...and dont forget...it pumps out a butt clenching 15bhp (ish) if its going well

Nice to see a proper intro Nick DT175's are very welcome here, Look at the casting at the bottom of the cylinder you will see it says 171cc, which if it were on standard bore, that would be the capacity. ATF in the forks would be ok but it's a bit of an experiment really so go for it and if its too thin then try fork oil. Any questions on the DT fire away its a favourite of mine and Cynic's ...Paul

Post a photo of the bolt and tell us how you attempted to extract it, maybe we can suggest something

Great job, looks like a french one now I see you have the same indicators as mine, 'off in a flash'

Shouldnt do it any harm, it just wont ever go to trickle. Why not just go for a drive?

Nice one Dave, looks nice and light and will be well suited to your climate, even the white seat will be a bonus in the scorching sunshine you lucky b4st***

Could be flooded, is it indoors? if so take the spark plug out for a couple of days. if its outside cover with a tarpaulin when the plug is out. Get a new spark plug before you try again.

Only two weeks to go, have a great Xmas everyone and I look forward to seeing and meeting you in the new year. ...Paul Heres a 'touching' Xmas tale. It's nice how Christmas spirit brings out the best in everyone!! There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day, a letter came addressed in a shaky handwriting to God with no actual address. He thought he should open it to see what it was about. The letter read: Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had £100 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension payment. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with, have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope.. Can you please help me? Sincerely, Edna The postal worker was touched.. He showed the letter to all the other workers. Each one dug into his or her wallet and came up with a few pounds. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected £96, which they put into an envelope and sent to the woman. The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Edna and the dinner she would be able to share with her friends. Christmas came and went. A few days later, another letter came from the same old lady to God. All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read: Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift. By the way, there was £4 missing. I think it might have been those bastards at the post office. Sincerely, Edna

Talking of 'Restricted' are YOU restricted? or have you passed your test, Learners can only ride 125's (I suppose you already know this though)

No that heavily finned unit is more likely the voltage regulator. No one on here de-restricted one of those models, They were never available here as we had the LC models at that time, you will never get much power from it. Best bet would be just to get it set up propery, there will be restrictions inside the exhaust I think but not worth the effort to do, it possiby has a very narrowed exhaust port too. Only way to see would be to take off the exhaust, again though...not worth the effort to do

These are genuine clips from Dublin City Council complaint letters - so read and enjoy how others put their thoughts into words... 1. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it. 2. He's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it anymore. 3. It's the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow. 4. I want some repairs done to my cooker, as it has backfired and burnt my knob off. 5. I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage. 6. ...and their 18year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence. 7. I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof... I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off. 8. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand? 9. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall. 10. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it, yesterday, and now she is pregnant. 11. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen. 12. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster, and 50% are plain filthy. 13. I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers. 14. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared. 15. Will you please sed a man to look at my water, it is a funny colour and not fit to drink. 16. Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces. 17. I want to complain about the farmer across the road. Every morning at 6am his cock wakes me up and now it's getting too much for me. 18. The man next door has a large erection in the back yard, which is unsightly and dangerous. 19. Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third, so please send someone around to do something about it. 20. I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man on top of me every night. 21. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife. 22. I have had the clerk of works down on the floor six times, but I still have no satisfaction. 23. This is to let you know that our lavatory seat is broke and we can't get BBC2.
