    MOT Failure

    As FB said what do you want to happen as I feel the dealer will say the bike had 100 parts mot complete strip down an rebuild don't didn't happen here . What I would do is contact trading standards that way they can keep a check on the dealer and once this has been reported enough times they will do some thing .because once they won't do anything but 10 times then they know has taken the Mick and getting or doing bent MOTs as I know a garage that will pass any car for double the MOT price so there are ones out there don't it . And things like this will help to stop this .. And yes he been reported to TS..
  3. Filtering all the time as I don't understand when I see bikers sitting in traffic ?????even when its raining but the worsed is hot sunny days sitting in a traffic jam (road works ) when there is nothing coming the other way for a few minutes anyway .Yet still sit an wait . If see learners do it and as I pass them I'll wave like follow me and a few have some still sit there . One the best parts about riding a bike is filtering .
  4. Iv got brakedown thro my bank account . I pay £15 a month it covers a load things as well holiday .insurance. will .probate .so on. Check your bank accounts some times these things are on your policy but don't know it ..
  5. I got one on watch list .it's one battery last for ages but needs a SIM card I don't know how that will work . It says you hide the tracker and if the bike gets nicked you call or text the number on the SIM and it gives the GPS and you I guess tell the cops???? Or look for it your self. Any info will be helpful
  6. Anything a bit less !! I have a tracker!! Lol
  7. Hi I know this was chatted about a few weeks ago . So I'm in need of a tracker as my insurance is due and as the bike weather is coming I want an extra peace of mind . So what have we got then . I'm looking for a cheap tracker low running cost easy to use . Thanks
  8. @Samadielka If it helps, I had a no fault claim on record I forgot to mention when applying for a new policy, their checks brought it up on their system but it didn't increase my premium they'd already quoted me (this was with bikesure) - so not all companies will take them into account. This is the same with mine not my fault I told them as I didn't want the BOLLOCKS down the line trying to make a claim and they say sorry you didn't tell us about it we not.paying out . So I had a price before I told them and no difference ..
  9. Also the coppers was hiding down a lane they 're not allowed to hide they must be in full veiw of the drivers .. down a dirt track waiting for someone to speed past is entrapment if the cop car was in full view i dont think the test pilot would gone as fast .. So free him and give him his bike back
  10. Me . Desiding to go out for a ride gets me biker gear on sets up the Bluetooth on my phone log it in to intercom. wife wife opened the garage door and I ride out saying won't belong ......... Then the music stops .So i push the button nothing. Turns it off turns it on still no music so I'm half way down the lane an thinking what's wrong with this now aawww it must be low on battery then the wife slaps my right arm music bursts into life shits me right up ..WTF I'm so engrossed in what I'm doing I didn't see her walking down to me !!! you dropped your Phone dumbass !! Do the zip up next time .. What lesson we learned ...Zip your jacket pocket up..
  11. I really don't know much about rethreads. tapping .sump kits but what u do know is if got oil can get out of it then it will and feck your engine up . This plug thing I one way and the sump can come off the bike so you have the sump so you can see it from the inside thro the hole towards the floor . .. I might have this all wrong but why not take the sump off clean all the oil off the sump inside and out . Buy 2 sump plug washers then put one washer on a m14 or m15 bolt that sits thro the sump hole then put the other sump washer on the bolt and put a nut on it tighten the nut and bolt up till the sump washers seal the hole then put the sump baxk on the bike fill the sump up with oil thro the oil fill .then warm up the engine make sure no leaks then over the next few months look for a new one or 2an hand one .while keeping a check on the oil level . If what I said can't be done or won't work . Just buy a new one ......
  12. I know . there's nothing worse than your Mrs chewing your ear off because you want to spend cash on your lover sorry bike lol . I know wait till mothers day give her chocs flowers breaky in bed then the bill from the garage
  13. Ok I'll try that tomorrow . .Ill take the 2 pipes that are on the right side used the tank off and make sure they not blocked then I'll go out for a ride . I'm almost on an empty tank about 50miles.left then I'll take the petcock off make sure that's not blocked The parts guy at Honda parts thinks that as I have a fuel filiter under tank (My bike should not have one ) he says the last owner might have taken the one off the petcock as its £40 to replace its a gauz white tube like thing to a fuel filter outside under the tank which cost £5
  14. Hi all . Ok you might remember few months ago I had problems with my Honda cb750 P reg 1996 . It just after its Ben parked up over the winter I did a service on it which I changed the plugs .to do that I lifted up the gas tank and when I put it back.down I linked up the air breather so the bike was cutting out after a few mins. So I sorted out the kinks and NOW when I was out just now every now then the bike was sluggish as if it was say running on 3 pistons not 4 ( I'm just saying the pistons as its got numbers in it to show 1 not running 3 is ) So I was told few years ago if you start the bike turn off the gas at the petcock then it suck the carb down as its starved of gas .. So I did that and it run out petrol turn on gas started off it went firing on all 4 .. Then about hour later it did it again I was doing about 60mph then opened the throtel and it just went sluggish again so did the petcock thing again . Cuts out turn on gas off like a shot. This time on way home . So from the sound of this I need my carbs cleaned ??????? If so how much do you think it cost .. As I need a new front tyre and the Mrs said one or the other ??
  15. I used it in my car once as I had a slowly so when I went to.the tyre shop they won't changen the tyre as it was to much hassle to clean the gunk off the wheel so they could fit the new tyre .So they take the tyre off so I ended up having to take home wash it then take it back to fit the new tyre. So I won't be using it again
  16. royal mail would never get though the letterbox WHAT A BET if they week in the mood not to fill out a card or take it back to the sorting office they have a go lol .
  17. So what's stopping them knocking you over the head and taken the cash and the bike or in today's day stabbing you taken the cash andn the bike ... It's all a gamble . Did any you see the scammer programme on TV about credit card scams these 4 got away with nearly 3million and the most they got was 3 months in jail rest suspended sentances. So if they do Nick your bike what's the chance you ever see it again or get justice for the crime. Wee rant over
  18. Yea go with a biker lawyer as said .. MCN has a big advert on one such ..most these ambulance chasers dontntake cases on unless they have something like 70 to 80% high return for them Even if it's a plane sale win unless they can drag it out over say a year or so . Then they won't touch it . As they want to send you load letters .you to go in and see them (if your local ) or they come and see you then pay for medical reports . Police reports . Hospital appointments . Then say a years pain .Then they will get you a standred pay out .. while they get about 4 times the amount you get yet your the one in pain .. One my m8s worked for admiral insurance in the claims department .. .
  19. Wow that pants I got a P reg cb750 does 130 and I'm sure there's a wee bit left to go .
  20. I had the very same thing . Stopped at.a biker cafe put the front dics lock on .(As my insurance states 2 forms lock at.all times steering.lock disc lock) had the coffee get.back on the bike waits for a gap of goes PING what the back as shit sick lock one or guys came over as I just managed not to fall . They picked up a peice each . And both went blood heck it split it in 2 . No damage to the disc but was well pissed that it split. Went back to the shop to buy a different one the guy said it was due to me putting disc on the front of the disc so as i went to.pull off it had a bit of speed to hit the brake caliper so he said to put it behind so I just bought a boss lock instead don't trust disc locks now.
  21. I'm sorry I just don't get this ???? It's the same with pen letters . Candyman candyman candyman candyaaaagaghhhhhh.......
  22. I guess he had an extended mag . .I that type of policing should be taken in the UK . Cops ask you to stop you don't then they shoot you ........ sorry I don't see the problem . Once you shoot a few then the SCUM who try and run from the cops will stop . I even say the helicopter cops need to have a sniper on board they fly above the car put on the search light if you don't stop then they fill the car with bullets .. .less SCUM on the road and save prison costs .
  23. My best DIY is my 30ft by 18 ft garage . The double extension on my house . Full length the house 30ft then 10ft out so we now have down stairs bathroom walking shower toilet. Massive kitchen. Utility room .my action man room (dining room ) then living room .upstairs 5 bed rooms .1with ensuite bathroom shower. Then another bath room at the far end the landing . Attic very low can't do crap in there old house . We have high ceilings I wanted to gut the whole house lower the ceilings to make a fair size attic . But wife said not as it ment we live in a caravan for 6months till I done the floors and walls . But as I was working at the time as.well it would been 6months or so .. . All building work was done off ladders no scaffolding till the end when I done the rendering on the walls . And 1 full skip of clay . All the earth from the footings went in to the front garden .All the crap bricks rubble In one massive hole in the back garden . As our gardens don't have any stones bigger than chippins we used to have the garden flooding but now as i filed it with briks and rubble water runs away .
  24. Leave the cat alone .once the smell fades to your nose anyway . It stop other cats peeing on the bike . Also if it's under wraps how do you know there is no mice eating your wires well the cats per will stop that . Also if you got SCUM in your area looking to pinch a bike well one that smells of cats pee well let's say I won't want to pinch it . .
  25. The minimum on whiplash is £2.500 then you have a year or so of pain this is why so Many do these crash for cash scams . These ones are making millions. Yet its us who pay . But if it's a real accident then I'm all for paying out but crash for cash they need locking up for a long time .
