If you do take your wheel for a balance check, it wont be to your nearest tyre place (BWJ) most of them only do car wheels and can not do bikes, so its a tyre place that can do bike wheels or a bike shop that can...the beer tokens have just increased!
I'm for setting the fork height correctly too.
BUT if the previous owner was a little vertically challenged, he may have lowered the back too? so this would cancel out the front being lowered., you should put both front and back to standard if this is the case.
Have you passed your test, its only supposed to do 30 isnt it
If youre only 16, its usually dead cheap to reach 17, (too young to drink, too young to smoke, mum and dad pay for everything) and when youre 17 you can get a 125, restricted of course
Sound like the fuel gas gone to reserve, switch the tap to RES and fill her up, dont forget to switch it back to ON when you do fill up, or you'll be walking again sometime
It its already switched to RES, youre out of fuel!
It might be a squere relay though like on my DTMX, more than likely 2 pins, 1/4 blades at 90 degrees to each other, only guessing but worth investigating
To add insult to injury I even took some spares in as well, thought I might as well get them done too while I was at it.
On a brighter note I went to another company (Unity Plating) in Oldham, the chap there did a test and confirmed the were indeed chrome and agreed they were rough. I found a spare front wheel axle and he has plated it zinc, free of charge as a sample...it's the mutts nuts and just how I wanted my stuff to look.
I am actively replacing as much of the first stuff both new and used, no prizes for guessing who gets that job.
I am in discussion with the first place.
Welcome littlered, its on the carb somewhere
They usually have quite a big head, knurled metal or moulded plastic. AKA tickover adjustment screw. Just guessing though as i aint familiar with the beast in question
is yours a water cooled Paul, I would have been worried with the extreme weather over the Xmas period and the run up to Xmas!
And 'Uncovered' under all that snow...shame on you
A half decent forecast for the next 3 days spurred me to try and start the Bandit up, having flattened the battery once I just managed to get it ticking over (roughly), the next 10 minutes spent trying to open the throttle which has the quirky characteristic of killing it until finally I could give it some revs. Then I noticed one header pipe didnt burn me quite as much as the other three, so then..its new plugs all round when I get some, and I have no idea what sort of job it is to change them, on first glance it looks like tank off. (not looked in the manual yet though)
so its the DTR out of hibernation I guess
