Stu

you cant put a price on your head

you sure they havent sent you two tail pack instead of a tank bag ?

it looks a bit big to be a tank bag and wrong shape

take a look at the pic on M&P they look different

Its not a case of leverage to the get the bolt out that goes thu the pads. i dont think i used the right word. its like a long thin cylinder shape that goes thru the 2 holes at the top of the pad. Think ill jus av to wd40 its ass and hope for the best.

i know exactly what you mean with the pin like i say attach it to the bike so you can get leaverage on it

its easier to get out while its on the bike then on the floor or in your hand and less chance of damaging it

yes an exhaust can be welded if you have something to weld to you will probably find that around the area is really thin

sounds like you still have air in the caliper as the fluid will push it out

fluid is better then air

as for the rear caliper

stick it in a bag and spray loads of WD40 in there and leave overnight you will need to replace the brake pads if that doesnt work try giving the area a tap not too hard as its cast and can crack to get the bolt out attach it back to the bike to get some leaverage on it

instead of replying to this thread all the time why not put a new topic when your out and about ??

weekend/weekday/evening for me just depends on work

my bike is for fun and thats all i have a car for going to work in

first things first Phil

get the sag set correctly and write down any adjustments so you can go back to them

the most popular bike is the Honda cbr125

best selling bike of 2007

ps drop into newbies and introduce yourself

prillia as its a twin

was a great night nice to see some old faces oh and a few new ones

see you all there

my mobile is in contacts if anyone needs it

moved to pitstop

I have up to size 32mm and I seriously don't think any bike would need a 32mm

36mm here for the suzuki's spindle nut

i dont see what odds what wiring system you have as the two wires go to your battery red to + black to -

unless you are taping in to the wiring so it only works with ignition on ??

main wire goes where that bolt is

hmmm brake cleaner "might" be ok for cleaning it out personally i wouldnt as its a very strong solvent

WD40 would be fine

my starter on my 4X4 makes some strange sounds and sticks after a good offroading session a good jetwash and WD40 sorts that out

found this in my favorites

must have been in there years

a word of warning though due to the amount of camera locations this does run really slow

sounds like the starter is sticking

carry a hammer to save your feet

take it off see if you can strip it clean it up and a bit of grease otherwise its a new starter

hmmm howden to driff some of my fave roads

shame my bikes off the road (no tax)

hope you have a good day craig and tomo will probs join ya

you dont need to take the loom to bits you could do it keeping the loom intact

you would have to buy new connectors for the bulbs some bigger wiring and a couple of relays

take the feed from the oe plug using a suitable spade connector to the relay simple

moved to pitstop

if your really concerned about burning the loom out then install a relay with thicker wiring and use the oe wiring to work the relay

there will be a little give in the wiring but the fuse is the first thing to go thats what its there for

you can get proper exhaust paint in a sray from halfrauds and i think their BBQ paint is even better and tougher

you will need a heat resistant paint for the engine too so if hamarite do one it should be fine

exhausts can get hotter then 700 degress though

i have used the exhaust paint and it can be good if you do it right

give the pipes a right good clean the spray them and heat the paint by fitting to bike and running it read the tin on how to do it exactly

the only thing is it wont last forever and will probably need doing again in about a year but still worth it as it will keep must of the road salt away from the metal and stop a lot of corrosion

not sure what time i will be there yet i think the wife is coming along too

good to see rich took up racing

last i heard he was going to have a go
