Does sound like a blocked tank breather to me too........and the idle mixture screw sounds like it could do with a tweak......

Yep.....ditto what EAB says....... -
Moved to Pitstop as it's more relevant here......

The rear tyre hasn't squared off has it? Check the back wheel to make sure it's not loose or the bearings are shot......likewise, check the swing arm bearings......and also make sure the rear shocks are ok....and no one has b*ggered about with the rear shock settings......

Biker dating groups ... There is such a thing? Where do I find them? There's a biker dating group advert that pops up on my Facebook feed every now and then......dunno if it's any good though......but may be worth a look.....

Sorry to hear this, mate.......but you've got to look ahead and not dwell on the past. One of my mates has just had the same thing happen to him......After nearly 30 years.....but he's joined various groups, like walking groups and the like where he's meeting a lot of other people. Check out the biker dating groups too..... Good luck mate......

My Nexus 5 is doing OK. The only thing I don't like about it is the lack of a microSD slot.....The battery life can sometimes be a bit short, but other times it's OK. Not so many accessories available for it.....but the main ones like screen protectors and cases are ok......

Google Nexus 5 phone?.......

Welcome to TMBF mate. .....pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ...... Does it make the noise when stationary or only when moving?.......If it's only when you're moving check chain for tension or tight links.....also check wheel bearings. ......
-
The original post is in Newbies, Joe....so I suggested the OP put the question in the appropriate section (here), but leave the introduction where it is......
-
Nice one mate......enjoy......and take it a bit steady at first.....

Outdoor cover missing this morning
Tango replied to a topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Just be careful using a bike cover in high winds....They can act like a sail and pull your bike over off the stand!..... -
We're not having a go at you mate.....but as EAB says, you'll knacker your new chain with that sprocket.....best change it as soon as you can.....
-
Is that your front sprocket?......

Tango replied to Grumpy Old Git's topic in General Rideouts/Meets
Done the pubs during my outing today......twas great to get out on the bike again...... -
Nice one mate... 17500 miles in 10 years?......I'm sure you'll sort that out!......
-
I didn't think the tank looked very big, how much do you think it would require to top up? Would something like this be suitable? http://www.halfords.com/motoring/bulbs-blades-batteries/car-battery-chargers/halfords-battery-top-up-water-1l" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; That would do the job......but you can get deionized water cheaper in some supermarkets. ......

Sorry mate, I don't know where the temp sensor is on that bike.....you'd need a repair manual to find out where it is. The sensor on my bike is at the top of the radiator, but yours could be somewhere else....
-
Ahhh....you kids.....never experienced having to put a clothes peg on the choke lever on a car to keep it out because the thing was so worn that the friction collar to hold the choke on didn't work anymore. .....
-
Welcome to TMBF mate. ....pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ....... Sounds like either the fan is duff or the temp sensor for the fan is faulty......sounds like you could do with checking the water pump and thermostat too.....
-
If you top it up with the same stuff you should be OK. ....
-
Welcome to TMBF mate. ....... I'm guessing you've got an airlock in the water jacket......Check for a bleed screw around the water jacket or water pump, or both...... I'm assuming you used the correct dilution of coolant?
-
Just passed my CBT looking to get a KSR TW 125?
Tango replied to Alane1989's topic in Motorbike Chat
Welcome to TMBF mate. ...... Not a bike I'm familiar with.....but someone else may have more info for you..... -
so long as it doesn't go much higher you should be OK. .....
-
Sounds like you're only running on 1 cylinder......hopefully tapping the carbs will free up the float.....
