  1. Booked Mod 2 on 11th November at 8.30 in the morning but the sun doesn't come up til 8.45 all the dates they had left until the end of november were first thing in the morning
  2. Passed Mod 1 this morning The only concern I had was getting up to speed for the swerve and emergency stop on my chinese 125 but I did both first time at 52 & 52
  3. Passed Mod 1 this morning they only have 1 speed trap and it was set up to go left

    magnets dont work on aluminium The only way to be certain there's no swarf in the engine is to take the head off

    You wont get 14V until the engine is running
  9. If the green light for straight ahead is just a green light you can turn right when the road is clear. If the green light is a straight ahead arrow you have to wait for the right filter to turn green before moving off.
  10. Use a valve spring compressor to release the collets then remove the spring retainer then do the reverse to put it back together with a new retainer This video shows how to do it on a car engine "> with new retainers the shims will probably need changed
  11. From the link it looks like the shim buckets are part of the valve spring retainer So you would have to replace those - item 12009 in the diagram looks like a head off job
  12. If you pass on an automatic you are limited to automatic If you pass on manual you can choose either Why limit yourself

    Clutch/Gears issue...

    Its probably because you have a wet clutch the plates are wet and the coating of oil causes a little drag when the cluch is disengaged it will happen in the other gears but it shows more in first because of the lower ratio you'll get less drag as the oil warms up
  19. Youv'e answered your own question the image is to big
  20. I did my CBT at Harleys in springburn just before they shut down last summer On the last day they were open I was told that they were closing down the business
  21. I misunderstood the rules, here's the file dsa_mc_diagram_manoeuvring_layout.pdf
  22. I know I'm not allowed to post direct links So do a google search for this file dsa_mc_diagram_manoeuvring_layout.pdf It has all the dimensions to lay out the test course
  23. I agree its good site for practice I was clicking too often and got 4 clips cancelled with zero score but I still managed a score of 38 on the remaining 10 clips so I think I should pass if I take it easy clicking
