  1. I would be very wary about buying goods from Hong Kong at the moment (or since a few months ago) because of all the kerfuffle in the area. Unless you have paid with a direct debit card you can always raise a dispute with either PayPal or the credit card company. Once you have told them that they won't refund you, they will return your money and will go after them for it
  2. I did the fluid change on my ST1300 and the system is similar (maybe a bit more complicated on the ST. The nightmare is when you empty the system completely and then try to refill. you won't be able to remove the air without a vacuum pump. The process I use is to remove enough brake fluid (BF) from the reservoir without emptying it. Then I fill the reservoir with methylated alcohol (you can get it from toolstation) and pump the fluid until the alcohol starts running clean from the calipers. After this you repeat the process with new BF until it runs clean from the calipers. This way you will never have air in the system The alcohol cleans the system but doesn't damage the pipework and it will only be there for no more than 30 min.
  3. True but the link in the forum helps @Stu with forum costs
  4. follow the link for sportbikeshop https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/#/27907,3203,1186 the best is a www.duckduck.com search for your bike
  5. Sounds like in need of a fluid change, caliper service and ABS ring cleanup. Maybe worth a service in master cylinder while you're at it

    If the bike was running and not charging the battery, you could be facing an alternator or controller problem. As above, test the battery, if you can get hold of a car battery try using it to start the bike and check if it is charging the battery. The only reason why a battery would go flat is if left plugged for a long period and parasite currents drains it down. A battery on a bike that is used frequently shouldn't go flat so that is a sign that your problem is not the battery.
  14. Important to remember the thread lock for the disk's bolts. If you're servicing the calipers is worth to replace the brake fluid.
  15. SSSHHHH don't tell him that would be nice having the poor thing sprouting stronger and start to give more pears Until your house insurance claim for structural issues is rejected because of it ... When you buy the policy you would have to tell them how many how big and the distance from the house trees are. So if you make a claim about a declared tree you will be covered.
  16. A. It produced very few pears. B. The few it produce were rock hard for weeks, then overnight went soft. C. It is right next to the house so the roots will be playing silly beggars with the drains and foundations. D. It was covering several windows. E. It was damaging the gutters. F. I was bored. Don't forget to poison it .... Unless your digging it out ..which you will wish you had left the trunk attached for levarage If not poisoned it will return ...in varied suckers along its root base . SSSHHHH don't tell him that would be nice having the poor thing sprouting stronger and start to give more pears
  17. Never had a problem with them. Last chinese purchase I made was on Ebay the item took 10 days from purchase to arrive to the UK on 14/10/20. Tracking is showing as accepted by RM and still waiting for it. So yes it can take some time but don't blame the Chinese for everything.
  18. Reminds me the story of the countryman talking to his friend... "Next month is my wedding anniversary." "Really?" "Yep, going to kill a pig for the occasion." "Why are you putting the blame on the poor animal?"
  19. Another candidate for TOTY...
  20. We will have something like this?

  22. I'll be writing all my posts on my notepad. It will be a very busy Thu...
  23. I pay that every bloody month Shit! What services do they provide to warrant that cost? As a comparison, we have communal rubbish containers throughout the estate (inc recycling ones) and they're emptied every night! 7 days a week! I pay over £200 a month for the privilege of having: 4 wheelie bins (paper, plastic and metal, garden rubbish and general waste that doesn't fit on the other ones) to be collected once a week on a 2 bin per 2 weeks for the garden and general waste then in between the paper and plastic/metal alternated, crap roads, idiotic traffic signs Ice on the road during winter months paid parking on major towns and cities Litter everywhere ridiculous speed bumps that you can ride in between (even with the car) One thing the council offers for free and lots are potholes...
