Nearly 81 of the great British pounds excluding VAT for a lock!? I'd expect a automatic mounted machine to popout for that price! Jesus wept.. And it only acts as a deterrent oh my good gracious!

Damn, well sorry I couldn't help.

Going to use my knowledge for once... Brace yourself... Is the kill switch in the off position? I'm all out of ideas...

Mine is to the bast*rd who short changed me a whole pound, while buying an ice cream! To late to go back as the line was out the shop... Well played mr texaco man, well played...

Congratulations I'll be joining you in about 2 years

Hahahahahahah I'm pissing myself! Anyway, I don't think riding it would be a very good idea pmsl...

Please do Good to see you're back in the bike dude

Admire what you're doing and wish you the best of luck with it

Maybe we're all in on this joe try to convince you that it's not spam ;D

LOL, maybe!! but look at first few characters of the OP's username, and the name of the site that was posted.... Spooooky coincidence!!?? Perhaps, but it was bogof who posted the link, maybe if it was a random users first post putting the link on then yeah a little bit suspicious.

Try here I do wonder if this thread is an elaborate way for the spammers to get their link posted! So instead of posting the link themselves, they ask a question that results in someone else finding, and posting the link for them!! You've been around zod to much with your conspiracies

As the engine won't be used using the same electronics as on my yamaha I'll have to convert it to carbs won't I? New to this stuff and especially electrics I'll split the case tonight inspect the bearing make a video and some pictures and start a thread later on If the damage is going to be loads then I'm going to just sell the working parts if not ill be borrowing your manual

+1 A 50cc two stroke with an upgraded bore kit... Unless you want it to last about 2 minutes go ahead but I reckon he fitted it f**ked up and tried getting rid of it to you.. Or as usual I'm wrong I don't condone upgrading a 16 year olds bike because like myself will be an idiot revving the guts off it and destroying it... It'll be an accident waiting to happen. Oh and it's illegal too... I've heard the police don't take to kindly to teens riding illegal bikes on the road.

Thanks a lot for the reply I'm going to check the state of everything first because all it's potentially going to be used for is a go kart or a project of some sort The barrel is in great condition there's no scratches or damage to it which is surprising when looking at that piston I'll be sure to send you a PM if the damage isn't to bad and then try and rebuild it Stupid question but my bike is fuel injected so would I have to buy a new one of them or can I try and find an adequate carburettor or does it not work like that?

That's a great idea Cheers dude

I was thinking more for a go kart I might just sell the undamaged parts on it try and make some money back

If I split the crank case and investigate the bearings and they're okay, clear any debris at the bottom should it be okay?

Stupid question but how can I tell between dead bearings and non dead bearings?

So basically I asked if I could have the old engine from my Yamaha and the mechanic happily gave it me so I thought I'd do what the mechanic didn't do and strip it down and see where the fault is and I took and the barrel, etc off and first thing I saw that didn't look right was the piston... http://imageshack.us/a/img5/6685/bfti.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img819/1403/j3oe.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img35/1668/iov9.jpg When I hold the piston and spin the engine round it doesn't make that clunking noise like it did previously? Did I just waste 723 quid on something as simple as that?!

See, there's your problem Have you made any progress miss meg?

It blows Stupid government changing all the rules and crap :'(

Yeah, I can't go this year Bike engine hasn't even been packaged yet... Rantmachine, good luck with all the luggage and that massive journey on a 125 Hope you all have a good time and ride safe

Congratulations dude! I'll get there some day, well I'm years off

Yoo I'm around your area Shame I'm on a 125
