  1. Did you see the review I did of my SJ1000 camera Joe? ....paid £50 plus added sd card and a spare battery for a few quid more.... Worth a look mate....
  2. Welcome to TMBF mate.....pop over to the Newbies section and say hello to the guys when you can..... UK190 has a chop based on a gsx750 engine.....he don't get on here much these days....but may respond to a PM if you send him one. He rewired his and fitted it with a remote starter.....so he may have the info you're looking for...
  3. The Sky is Cryin' - Stevie Ray
  4. Go to any section of the forum and at the top of the section is the Rally thread and below it is the Attendance list....
  5. Is the plug just wet or is it a bit oily?.....is the bike 2 or 4-stroke?
  6. Yep.... you and OhJay are on there Cat....
  7. So.....is there anyone who's likely to be attending that doesn't have their name on the attendance list?......shout up folks.....so we have a better idea of how many are likely to be coming along....
  8. Blue and Evil - Joe Bonamassa (again)....
  9. Very popular with the Cafe Racer boys......so parts may not be too bad to get hold of....
  10. Three times a Fool - Joe Bonamassa or Otis Rush.....take your pick.....
  11. Blood hell....another year gone already... Thankfully it's dead easy to change the settings.....
  12. Check your clutch cable adjustment as the clutch may be dragging slightly.....and also make sure your chain isn't too tight now.....
  13. Bought off eBay from UK seller for £50....but I did have to buy a MicroSD card too.....and I also bought a spare battery for £5. Camera is a bit like the GoPro and requires the waterproof case (supplied) to use it on the bike. There is a whole raft of mounts supplied in the kit....so it may take some experimentation to find the right combination....but, as the waterproof case has a standard camera thread insert in the bottom, there are also other mounts available if required. Currently using the camera without the waterproof case with one of the mounts in the car, and have attached another mount to the front brake reservoir....so it's still suffers a bit from vibration over rough road surfaces....but it's fairly useable I think. The waterproof case reduces the wind noise on the camera, so you can hear the engine....but it's not perfect, but again I think it's useable. The battery is interchangeable.....so, for use on the bike it'll give about 4 hours recording with both batteries. In the car it's connected to a micro-USB supply (same as phone chargers) and is set to start recording when the ignition comes on. I've set it for loop recording with 5 minute segments. There are 3 options I think....but the 5 minute segments work for me.....and it generates a slight overlap between segments if you want to stitch several segments together. The camera has a small LCD screen on the back, so it's dead easy to set it up and change settings on the fly if you want. The screen can be set to turn off after a preset time to preserve battery life.....but there's a small blue LED in the top of the camera that comes on when it is powered on, and flashes when it's recording. The files are saved as .MOV....which my laptop doesn't like, but my tablet is fine with them. The only downside I've seen so far is that the picture isn't as sharp in the middle of the screen as it is on the edges....but it's still not bad.....and for £50..... Here's a little taster of the quality. ">
  14. Brute force and ignorance has won the day on many oil filter removals.......I think Stu's suggestion is your best option now.....
  15. I love camping......buy I have to admit it's nice when I get back to my own bed....
  16. Nightmare.... Whip the tank off again and make sure the connections to the fuel pump are good and there's no trapped or cut wires.....
  17. Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton
  18. How's the exhaust? Any leaks around that? Check headers. Are you sure that there's no leaks on the inlet stubs? Have a spray around with WD40 with the engine idling and see if the revs rise. And, as Mr Fro says, the carbs may need a clean.
  19. Red Sails in the Sunset - Nat King Cole (amongst others)

    Automatic 125 stalling

    Welcome to TMBF mate.......pop over to the Newbies section and say hello to all the guys when you can...... Well.....your problem sounds like the drive isn't disengaging when you stop. Could be a worn drive belt or the variator sticking. Dunno if the drive has separate oil....but if it does it'll be worth checking the level....or even replacing it.....
  21. I guess the burgers and hotdogs are pub prices......we were spoiled with the burgers at Papworth...... Hoping to make it along there next Tuesday......got the week off, so no issues about getting back from work....
  22. Turn to Stone - ELO
  23. Sorry chaps.....didn't make it tonight.....bit too kn*ckered after being away all last week and at the weekend.....

    XJ600 issues

    Phew.....that was one hell of a sentence..... Anyway.....I'd be measuring the voltage at the battery with the motor running.......sounds like it could still be too high......or it was too high before you replaced the battery and reg/rec and it cooked all the other bits. But measure the voltage before you do anything else.....
  25. Very sad.....RIP....
