  1. Can vouch for motorbatt, bikes been fine all winter and it lives outside. Left it for two weeks without starting as the longest period and it still fired up first time.
  2. Yup I went onto bike-parts-Honda.com found your bike and looked at the correct assembly for the part number. It’s used on a few models
  3. https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CBR600RR-CBR1000RR-New-Genuine-Spark-Plug-Hole-Gasket-12395-MBW-003/362234556753?_mwBanner=1&epid=1615983256
  4. I wonder what happens to people who wear a patch, I bet there’s lots of people who unknowingly wear one like the OP could have.
  5. Thanks very much all just a quiet meal tonight, ruined my head enough at weekend . Got a Haynes for the bike which I’ve been reading over and some new gloves for the bike courtesy of [mention]Baldrick[/mention].
  6. The Aldi gear is alright for starting out

    Pioneer Nevada

    I found it in 30 seconds [mention]fastbob[/mention] I just stuck "Pioneer Nevada battery" in google and the first answer was this http://pioneernevada-parts.co.uk/zenshop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=27 so to OP, this is what you want http://www.halfords.com/motoring/motorcycling/motorcycle-batteries/yuasa-12n7-4a-12v-conventional-battery
  8. As Tango says, within 2 weeks of having a 125 you'll be wanting to go for a DAS anyway. Just dooooo it.
  9. Finally all sorted, got the full race week Saturday-Satruday and staying right by Ramsey Heir-Pin . I can just look forward to it now
  10. Only if they use their own bike with an instructor.
  11. Your handle bars are pointing in a different direction to your wheel. I straightened mine like you would a push bike. Front wheel between your legs and forced them straight using the handle bars. Don’t know if that’s a really bad way to do it, there is a proper way involving a undoing something but I’ve forgot
  12. They only insure it if you’re under a professional instructor you balloon.
  13. I keep reading the title and it sounds like an order you’d make in a Chinese takeaway
  14. The cbf125 has a notoriously shit choice of tyres, maybe they’ve carried that over to the CB125F. When I had my CBF I didn’t find anything to suggest you can use different sizes.
  15. I do trail brake and engine brake far too much, and I lock the rear up and poo myself
  16. Have you tried replacing the battery before you go mental replacing the ECU and everything?
  17. I imagine that without the panniers on and only the rack it'd look a bit strange.
  18. Managed to get my sailings changed so now there all race week, (minus the first race) but I'm going to try see if I can get that changed too
  19. By far the best in the area is http://www.papillion-training.com/ the fella who runs them trains other instructors, very highly qualified and a very good instructor. However I don't know if they offer training past DAS though but they can probably advise. They're in didsbury.
  20. Let us know how it goes £600 to use a schools bike fully insured and their instructors expert knowledge for 3 days isn’t bad at all. Your route may not work out that much cheaper, £90 test fees. I bet the insurance is extortionate for that and then if you haven’t got your own method of getting the bike or the tea centre you’ve then got to pay for that. Plus without proper practice you’re much more likely to fail the Mod 1 a few times. If you all of a sudden realise the U-Turn isn’t the doddle you think it is and you drop your bike you can add on to the cost for repairs too.
  21. My style is slow in, slow out and just generally slow
  22. Time for H&S to pay a visit. There is no excuse to not use protective gear. Well the best trick is to put the screen near where they are welding but not covering the actual spot . Nothing will come of H&S issues here until an accident happens, it's too small a company.
  23. The workshop at my place often have to weld all over the place, there is a welding bay but often it's required on the job. They have screens to put up in this instance but they never do, . Luckily I'm usually far enough away not to burn my eyes.
  24. Mine's a bit tappy when cold, I think it's just the valves are out and it comes into tolerance once warm. I'm not sure if that is your CCT, aren't they noisy through the rev range? However it really won't hurt to replace it because they are known to fail.* Mine's 34k miles on the original though, typical life time is 25kish
  25. https://ownersmanuals2.com/d/72696 Not sure if this is the manual you have got, but these pages form it seem quite useful;
