  1. cheers to stu and vicki for a great forum (and it must be good as i have hung around for nearly 5 years) lets drink to another 8 years happy birthday tmbf
  2. is the hole blind or open at the back of the casing if its open its also worth filling that side up with plusgas as well so that it soaks in from both sides
  3. ive got both lower and upper arms done with single tats not full or half sleeves then i have got both shoulder blades and top halves of back done my lower right leg has a dragon wrapped around it from knee to ankle and my left leg has a biker about to shoots the 8 ball in pool thats the only one i dont like but its more do to with quality of work being really crap
  4. have you pulled it out to see if that pin is meant to be inside it to make the switch work? the pin might fall out if the switch vibrates back far enough with no screws in it,if you have already got another neutral switch then change it as you are in looking at it and i will be worth putting tiny bit of loctite on the bolts when refitting them
  5. the 12 days havent passed yet so there is still time to fail completly like i did last year and proberbly will this year
  6. happy new year all hope everyone has a good one
  7. happy birthday neil hope you have had a good day
  8. Hic merry xmas all
  9. that offer at either price didnt hang around long the page has gone today so it goes to show the offers dont hang around long
  10. a good evening had thanks all hope everyone has a good xmas and see everyone in the new year
  11. if you had the fuel tap in the prime position then you would of flooded the engine while at the lights causing it to cut out
  12. if i didnt have the car the mrs would be stuck at home the whole time as she cant travel far on the bike..............oh hang on anyone want to buy a car?
  13. the plug should be coated with carbon deposits and r ange in cloour from very light greyish to dark almost black sooty like condition it helps if we know colour range as well
  14. is the air filter clogged up? what colour is the plug when you take it out? basic setting for mixture is about 1 1/2- 1 3/4 turns out to get it to run then tune it slowly from there
  15. you can drop off the left handfront engine casing but check if it contains oil before removing and see how much movment there is in the crankshaft if you can feel any up and down movement then its fooked,big ends are not so easy to check unless you strip the motor down to check them
  16. Make a mockery out of the building control insisting on 1meter deep concrete footings for my single storey extension... we done a downstairs bathroom/wetroom for my parents many years ago and had to take the footings down 2.5 metres as there was a lavender tree within 20ft of where it was being built so we went 1.5 metres below the orginal house foundation for a tiny room extension really made sense that did
  17. yep bulb sounds like its gone now you are halfway into it finish the job and pull it out put new one in and before refitting it all turn ign on to see if it work
  18. reading the first link is the bike cutting out as you put the side stand down with clutch in?if so its not the bulb try what the links suggest before pulling fairings and engine casings off just to make sure could save you money
  19. it will be easier cheaper and quicker to just replace complete engine as a whole unit
  20. i will try and get to this as well be good to catch up
  21. is the bike water cooled and if so is there any coolant in it.once engine is off then nothing should be making high pitched noise unless its the fuel tank gasping air into itself when you turn it off and can hear the noise open petrol cap quickly and see if you hear it breath and the noise stops
  22. sounds like big end or main bearing to me,has it ever been run dry of oil or run for long period with it below the minimum level dont hear of many failing
  23. hope you have a good day alan
  24. happy birthday mate hope you have a good day
  25. are you sure that wasnt just a casting mark in the barrel its not very often they would crack like that
