Cheers guys

It won't stop it running!

It just helps to return the clutch worm drive

The clutch itself is enough to make it return though

Cool so is it ok to carry on riding the bike while I'm waiting for the spring to be delivered?

here ya go

Cheers £2.47, anyone know then how the bike is running without this then? Seems a pretty important part to me

Dont know your bike specifically but it looks very similar to the clutch operating arm on my GT380.

That's looks like its a return spring for the arm.

Sorry should have said it's a '99' gsx750f

Hi guys I haven't been on here for a while (sorry for that been very busy with work and moving home),

I have an issue with a broken part and I'm not even sure what it is, how it works or how to change it,

All I can tell you is the bike seems to be fine (I think) and I found this when changing my front sprocket, it is the spring thing (that's as technical as I can get and I've even read the manual),

As you can see I have put a ring around it in the pic, but I found mine to be just hanging and it kept hitting the chain I guess causing a funny noise,

So like I said any info guys would be great coz im at a loss?

Cheers.

If you get a 125 you will want a bigger bike no more than 2 weeks after riding it

I second that, there's cost to think of as well, you would have buy and insure a 125 then when you finally do your DAS you with have to get rid of the bike (probably make a slight loss if your unlucky) before you can get the bigger bike you want,

I pondered over this question for a long time but decided to go straight for my DAS and got my 750 straight away looking back I'm glad,

But also like has already been stated each individual is different so you gotta do what you think is right for you (generally speaking though if your intentions is to get a big in the end I wouldn't bother with anything else in between).

Hi guys anyone know of any carb cleaner services in or around the Swansea area, not confident in doing it myself?

Here she is on the first day out

Not much experience on bikes carbs but I have seen more problems on outboard carbs caused by people tinkering (they can be swines to set up)...

Do you know if it was running fine in history?

My experience is in not playing with carbs easy suggestions:

Visual inspection have look for differences between

Fresh fuel,

Check air filter is in reasonable nick,

Drain carb bowls (screw underneath),

If you can disconnect fuel hose near carbs check for good fuel flow,

Check change any fuel filter,

Check choke and throttle operation looks same on all carbs smooth not sticking,

Check plugs if all look the same, if they do its common across all cylinders fault could be else where.

Dose of Redex or similar,

Italian tune up (get her warm open her up and pull some fuel through),

Try the choke with the engine warm and some revs on (don't do it in first as if it stalls you could lock back wheel),

If no improvement after the above take carbs to someone who knows what they are doing!

Unless maybe its sticking float switches (Needle valves) in the bowls thats a relatively easy fix. On my bike the carbs would have to come off if I where to do this so I would probably just get them looked at!

Thanks but I think for now I'm gonna let someone else do all that as I don't want to wreck the bike in the first week of riding it

Standard exhaust or aftermarket on there?.....If it's aftermarket you may need to rejet the carbs.....

Its the standard suzuki exhaust that was on the bike?

Thanks, I was thinking that the carbs would need to be off and inspected (and more importantly by someone who knows what they're doing)

Thanks guys really excited cant wait for nicer weather

Hi guys I've just started using my 98 gsx750f, before I got on the road I done a full service on it, when I changed the plugs I noticed at the time that they were really cruddy and black, I didn't think much of it at the time because I knew it had been sat for a while and started and stopped a load of times so just put the new ones in (gap checked ok), I've noticed that on start up the exhaust fumes just smell like raw fuel (which I guess you'd get a bit as it's warming up), but even after I get to work or home (40 mins ride) it still smells just as bad,

Sorry for the long post but any ideas guys (still very new to bikes so please explain in simple terms for me lol)

Thanks!

WooHoo passed my mod 2 first time on Wednesday got straight home insured the bike taxed it and off I went lol!

Cheers guys will get looking now!

So I've just brought my first bike a gsx750f, I want to put the side panniers on it, where is the best place to get them from I have looked on ebay but can't seem to find the right ones, need the brackets and boxes?

yer i looked at the insurance and its about three times more for the rr model

Hi guys i haven't done my test yet but i really want to get a CBR600 as my first bike (I dont think the RR would make a good first bike???), like i said i haven't done my test yet so not looking to buy straight away just looking to see whats around??
