    hi vijay your english is fine, rirding in the rain will mean you will have to lubricate your chain much more regularly than normal

    ouch...what peaks Ryan ?
  9. Pack the crankcase with rags until you have the gugeon pin (wrist pin) clips fitted, just in case you drop one. Maybe even place the gugeon pin in the freezer for a while to shrink it to aid fitting
  10. the rings ar both different, the bottom one os parallel and the top one is a 'keystone' section...be sure to fit the right...there us a cutout at the edge of each ring to go around the peg
  11. I agree...not worth the bother IMO, it's not unusual for owners of elec start models to fit the kickers from the earlier bikes

  20. commuting to work on the dt in the 80's an extremely cold winters morning, all the way there I was so careful and took it easy...fell off on the turn in to work, much to the amusement of the works security guards...I'm sure it made their day...lazy bastards hadnt bothered to grit the entrance!

  22. Airhead replied to Timmygardiner's post in a topic in New Members Welcome Area
    Greetings Tim, they're a fantastic looking bike of you like the V twin cruiser types..I cant believe they are only a 125 when i see them...great choice, dont expect it to keep up with lighter bikes though...It's the 'look' with those not the performance.

    my moneys on big ends being shot from what noise said...3/4 litre!!! jeez what you thinking about man!!!
  24. Airhead replied to Kkrumb's post in a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    most likely an m5 thread dont worry about the oil, the bike is cold...hasnt been run much...so its a bit premature to be doubting it, they ayways emit more oil / smoke briefly when cold

    is there a drain screw at the bottom of the fork leg, on the outside of each leg? if so...get a long screw that fits and grind the end to a point then screw it in until it hits the taper spindle and 'nip it up' this may get a hold of the thing while you undo the bottom allen key
