Nice one Miss Meg Good luck for the test and be sure to let us know how you get on!

Blimey.... Is all I can say

The nob of the day award goes to the Zafira (I think) driver near Warwick today. I was on my little 125cc scoot and I was pulling out of a junction, turning left. The Zafira was coming towards me at a distance but very slowly, so I thought i`d pull out being that he was going so slow and could easily build up speed. Then out of nowhere, he was on my arse, even though I was traveling a 60mph which was more than enough for the road. He found it a great importance to be wanting to overtake me, even though he was traveling slow originally. He tried a dodgy overtake on a blind corner but had to go back in because he couldnt see (still traveling at 60 at this point) so i turned my body and head to look behind and gave him a few hand gestures as if to say..wtf are you doing you w**ker. Still on my arse, he overtook with a car coming head on and I had to move left of the lane to stop an accident. I noticed he had a child in the car but that didnt deter me trying to keep up with the muppet. Couldnt keep up and hunted around a few local roads so I could have a "chat" Wish I would have caught him, I was fuming. If you are the driver of said car (which I doubt you would be on this forum) and you had a incident with a little orange scooter by Warwick, I have a few words for you You put my life at risk including yourself, your child and other road users. I sincerely hope bad karma will enter your life and f**k you up in the way I would have done if i`d have caught you today. You are a worthless piece of shit and most of all, you are the stain on the worlds underpants. Well f**king done. *Breathe*

Never knew this existed. Might have to have a look into doing it!

R6 any day of the week. Though ask me the same question in 20 years, i`ll probably give you a different answer

Sparkplug is probably back and dry from overfuelling. You probably just need some slight adjustment. I wouldn't know what size jet you would need to be perfectly honest

Did you manage to get it running from the information given on the previous thread?

Nice build! Keep up the good work!

Best to check your spark plug fella. Sounds to me like wrong mixture but you mentioned that it hadn't be used for a while by the previous owner. I have found that modern petrol is deteriorating a lot quicker than it used to. So the carb might need cleaning out. Not too sure on the science behind it, just my opinion. Also check air filter.

Hmmm sounds nasty but might be worth checking your rollers first

They are not snap-on.... but snap-off!

That`s pretty good editing to be fair! Are you making more videos in the future?

Very good and informative write up that! Will be great to see a longer term update too!

Ohhh cheers for that! Think I might have to change my number plate then.

Really considering going to this so if anyone wants to meet up in Birmingham area, i`ll more than likely ride up

Replied in your topic bud

Looks great that does Rennie. Would love to take part but I think i`ll end up binning it (I get a bit enthusiastic) I will keep this on my list of possibilities and let you know nearer the time if I will be going. Cheers man

Have been reading through this thread, might just come along, Should be a good laugh!

Hi all Just trying to arrange a decent ride out (the more the merrier) on Easter weekend on one of the days. Meet up in Birmingham area (west mids)... or wherever suits. Probably bassets would be best as everyone knows it. Route and dates/times can be arranged after we figure out who coming and how they want to go. All cc`s welcome! Let me know.

Yeah he could just been saying that he worked on the superbike circuit, might be just good for the pub talk topic Yeah, get him to check it, could be just simple.

Love a bit of CCR. "> Its a little before my time but my mom had a fantastic taste in music so drummed out the vinyls all through my childhood. Metal all the way

Was looking at something like for myself. Just for music and answering phone calls. No interest in talking to my Mrs when she is on the back

Is the spark plug that is black, wet or dryish? I would suggest that a compression test would be the first test to find the cause. If the compression is low, then a top end job would be considered as a cause. If the test numbers are good then you would want to look for other causes, like being too rich or a float setting or a leaking seal. Or you may even have too much oil in your mixture> Considering that you recently changed the jets, I`d think the you need to get the setting right on the carb. Maybe the jets that you installed are incorrectly sized?

Had the problem for 4 years?? I thought I was king of procrastination but this just takes the biscuit!!
