I bought an engine recently for my TZR which ended up not fitting, with no engine numbers and there's engines in worse condition on ebay that are four times the price I'm selling mine for and no one wants to risk it. I got mine cheap and quick which is why I bought it, now it's proving to be a hard sell.

Gahhhh I need a time machine!!!!

I'm completely and utterly embarrassed now, please may you deactivate my account and I shall leave forever. I apologise.

ermmmm I have one but its not a concession/senior citizen one Shit. I need to work on my comebacks... Waheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy tango cracked it! Sit down stu

She has family over there, so we'll be staying with them (lucky me) and she said them dates just so happened to be the cheapest for flights, she sighs and moans when I talk about ride outs and calls me sad so I think it was on purpose And stu; ... ... Can't think of a joke about your age ... ... Go get a buss pass! Sorry I couldn't think of anything:p

Every time my girlfriend talks about going to Portugal on holiday I always told her to not book these exact days because I'm at a motorbike rally... She has now booked the holiday and booked the 11th of August till the 25th of August! I've told her around 9 god damn times! (She goes on about going there, a lot...) I've told her to basically get stuffed (politely) and I'm going for just a week from the 18th till the 24th! How many times do you have to tell someone something to get it into their god damn skull?!

New engine fitted! Might take this out at a later date to give a clean up and sand it down to bare metal so it's shiny but for now, it looks okay http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y513/coolman418/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps2d7b73fc.jpg New clocks fitted! Everything works, connected a battery up before and everything lit up! Even the back lights work! didn't take a picture because I couldn't hold the wires to the battery terminals and take a picture of it lit up http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y513/coolman418/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps115468bf.jpg All new chain and sprockets fitted and tightened up, awesome. http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y513/coolman418/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps83a9f154.jpg Bought the full brake and gear levers and set up from him also, fitted the rear brake, everything is set up perfectly back there now http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y513/coolman418/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsa2de4903.jpg Still got to do... Finish tidying up the wires. Fit all new bulbs Install front brake calliper Clean a lot of stuff up Install carburettor Install air box Install radiator Check if the bike runs And a few other things, won't be to long now before I can check the bike works then the polishing equipment comes out and a load of zip ties! Sorry for the slow progress but it shouldn't be to long! Expect a video in the next week of the bikes first kicks!

So the DT125 engine didn't fit and is now in ebay Result! I found someone breaking a near mint TZR and I was like a kid in a candy shop... I bought; An engine which he proved to me running on the first kick! 8000! Genuine miles! A near new original mudguard, complete with reg holder! A CDI bracket and CDI with cap! Both footpegs with all the brake levers and gear levers etc! Gahhhhh he had so much more that I want! A perfect wiring loom but I ran out of money! I'll be back to him though! Pictures soon, just on the way back from picking it all up

Little update Things are going slow because the YZF was top priority and drained what little money I had Been cleaning various parts and fitting them on Fitted the front tyre and it's starting to look like a bike at last! http://i1278.photobucket.com/albums/y513/coolman418/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps85a0e733.jpg Testing out my spray painting skills on various stuff, not all that good I have to admit

Mines being doing that since I accidentally cracked one of the terminals on my bike which is now held on by string till I can afford a new battery Not much help but maybe you've got a loose connection of some sort some where or your battery is flat?

Congratulations!

Thanks for the reminder! Going to go get one!

I'll try that one

Maybe the reflection of the petrol shined and made it a gold colour?

Thanks stu!

While we're on the subject of registration plates, my TZR has a metal reg plate, is that legal or do I have to get a plastic one made?

Nice one for pulling it off, I'd of got pissed off and sent it back

Hey EAB Shortly after I posted I rung up the shop and they was apologetic and said to bring it in Monday and he'll turn it around for free

Front tire has been put on the wrong way around... Jesus wept... Means going back to the shop and spending more money Oh and the new ignition I bought works perfectly and plugged straight in

The back tyre is on http://imageshack.com/a/img801/8720/pz8b.jpg

Yay, so I've got the new tyres fitted! http://imageshack.com/a/img62/759/0fr4.jpg I've got the back tyre on, finally! I ran out of charge so I couldn't take a picture I'm not putting front one on yet because I have a few jobs to do before hand

Hmmmmmmm, that's an awesome idea! Thanks stu I'll make sure I order the right one this time

I'll bare it in mind, thanks joe! I'm hoping to not get my hands to close to them, only to open them and then take photos
