  1. dont suppose light spray wd40 will do for filter ?
  2. cana really remember looking at speed, just match the clutch control to the speed he is walking, use back brake to keep bike up right and help control speed if you need it, looking at your speedo will make you balls the whole thing up
  3. cheers chaps, il get some air filter oil /grease when i replace filter, i have a feeling its never been replaced and it approaching 19k miles
  4. something ive discovered, why do i need to put oil in air filter?
  5. ta fozzie! il have a look, i got a feeling it aint been changed since day one, so im expecting all sorts of dead animals in there, can you wash these filters?
  6. just read it mate, thanks for posting it, i keep putting mine off. Can i ask how long you were riding for before you put in for mod2? did yo get any instruction?
  7. Didnt have much on yestersday due to rain so decided to fettle with bike, air filter was my objective, however discovered its buried beneath fuel tank, so i start removing fairings , removed fasten bolt to frame. Then it occurred to me i was gonna have disconnect fuel line, ah stuck now. Reason im stuck is getting to fuel line is a pain and im not sure when i disconnect it and clamp it shut im gonna end up with a airlock or so other horrible disease.. Seems bit drastic action for a simple check up
  8. turns out was a loose wire , drama over !
  9. cheers chapsil have a fettle later when jam eaters are asleep
  10. yea, normal beam and 1 full beam bulb comes on!, then when i switch to full beam all bulbs come on. All of a sudden this has started
  11. is odd i have one full beam light coming on with main beam, then wheni switch to full beam, both full beam lights are as intended, just cana see why it would do this...i have Honda Varadero 125 2004
  12. Unlucky mate, you'll do it, many people assume mod1 is just a CBT with a bit more , and to be honest it isnt.
  13. im debating if i can do 150 miles on varadero 125 without my ass dropping off or bike exploding
  14. oh i got a twinge in me love spuds there
  15. Went out today without some gloves on just to see if i rode better, and lo and behold my riding was much better, obviously i cannot keep doing this as its bad practice so im trying to find some gloves that lets you feel the bike like riding without gloves or as near as. Anyone able to recommend?
  16. Get a flapdisc for anglegrinder and gently and i mean gently brush over it, the flap disc is just sandpaper, 10 min job aslong as your not hamfisted all your gona remove is the rust
  17. good look pal, may the force be with you!
  18. Lol i was thinking i could do that today lol
  19. cheers bud i owe you a drink
  20. I would think it would be best to go fully suited up to test, kinda gives examiner the right impression and put away his red marker pen ( for a while anyway ) after that go out on ya speedos if thats whay ya want
  21. So im gonna teach myself to ride, driving for 16 years so im good with roads and signs. What im wondering is what would be a good lesson layout so im not aimlessly just riding about lol. Gona do test at Gateshead tyne and wear, basic plan is to hed down there, about 20 odd mile ride there up A19 then start at test centre, then just go for it, try n find the most ridiculous traffic systems lol
  22. NIce one Bumble, im very jealous, if i may ask, how long were you riding for beore you put in for test?
  23. thanks guys, ive booked a two hour lesson with an instructor, ive been very frank about what im doing but he said this is fine he will show me what i must practice
  24. Good on ya pal, i owe ya drink!
