  2. Greetings morph, i went to see saxon many years ago (wheels of steel) my god 1980 you werent even born!
  3. Greetings gunner Dave, so whats the plan...to get another?
  4. yeah its quite normal for an old motor, there are rubber cush drives that wear a little in time, not much can be done other than find a basket with less wear Having said that the welding isnt normal, it looks like someone has had it apart in the past...i would have a looksy at the spare engine basket
  5. if draining the bowl fixes it, albeit temporarily you need to drain the tank completely, even take it off and shake out the last...
  6. no wonder with a 2000 engine
  7. Greetings TC, yeah DT's are great bikes
  8. well it seems like last time by working on the carb you fixed it, i'm wondering if you have water in the fuel...drain the carb bowl and try it again, you can usually do this with the carb insitu so it's an easy fix.
  9. Great result john, over the moon tell him the red paint doesnt do it eh?
  10. Greetings Justin yeah the scooter scene is thriving, they get everwhere only joking...its good to see hear and smell
  11. ok although i'm sceptical of the possibilities, yes start a new topic in either dualsport or vintage sections, there are a few DT fans in here so we'll see what they think ...Paul
  12. Greetings Filippo she looks very nice First thought are you will never get much power though!! she's what we call a 'Trail' bike not a proper 'Enduro' such as a Yamaha IT I say leave it alone and enjoy it for what it is
  13. Hmm with 14000 views i'm surpised the 2011 YOC camping weekend is still getting hits...time to start a 2012 on I think...

  20. if its been stored its a good bet the battery is knackered! Have you checked the voltage ?
  21. seana click on the yambits link, confirm the colours and plug pinout are correct for the loom and then someone give yambits a call

    what no oil burners
  23. I referred back to post 4 because i suspect seana was checking magneto coils against info from an early haynes book, the one with the orange cover, as we know this book doesnt cover the readings for the mk2 anyway... this is not the problem with the lights so she should fit a proper switch with 4 positions. off, run, run with lights, and park The link looks out of date (too cheap) but its worth giving them a call http://yambits.co.uk...tch-p-3183.html
  24. err isnt that what i just said?
