  1. MrSheen for plastic and paintwork
  2. Bleedin scooter....turned it off
  3. Top it up. Don't wait till the bike overheats and seizes. If you top it up and the level goes down again you know you have some sort of leak to sort out.
  4. By the time it starts to seize, as yours has, there's probably a deal of rusting of the inner cable. I'd be getting a replacement now while it still works and putting it on the shelf for when it goes. Lubrication of all moving parts should be on your schedule and done regularly.
  5. There's your problem Any problems you have with your bike after a strip down can be easily cured by keep riding and rev the nuts off it
  6. Oooh! didn't know upside down was gay....You told the Aussies? And what about them forks? http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z28/Colin_the_bear/2gay.gif
  7. Thankyou. Can't believe I've not heard of him. Lots of stuff on youtube. Just ordered Addicted and Ghost. You wouldn't think it was anything to do with the same bloke lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpbUGBm6 ... KONMxTYWdn
  8. And a helmet...gotta keep it legal http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z28/Colin_the_bear/images-2.jpg
  9. Chester and Lester ">
  10. You need to concentrate on traffic and learn your road craft before becoming a mobile DJ and accessing facebook on the move. The helmet is to protect your head. It's not an app store. If the helmet has any space for gadgets in it, then it doesn't fit properly imo
  11. Being comfortable when you get there isn't the point with dedicated bike boots. They are for weather and accident protection. I prefer a good quality leather commando style boot. Protection and you can walk in them when you get there. I wouldn't wear a short boot on a bike. You need ankle protection.
  12. Substitute lettuce for chips and get a whole second
  13. The only reason for a fancy oil for the track, as far as I'm aware is to reduce drag and maybe shave off a couple of tenths of a second per lap. You need a couple of tenths?
  14. It makes no difference do a search there is a big thread about it Certain car oils have additives that are not compatible with a wet clutch. Did it on mine. Used to slip till the oil was hot. Changed the oil problem solved.
  15. You didn't put car oil in at the oil change did you?
  16. You checked the oil recently?
  17. googled number 8. Apparently its a Fibonacci number
  18. Sofa and one armchair is it you're after?
  19. It depends how you ride. If you tickle about and don't accelerate hard you may get a few thousand . If you blast it round the twisties and give it large away from the lights you may get less than a hundred
  20. That'll teach me to check the location of a poster before replying.
