    Mmmm.. still time for one more change before they start playing about with the prices. Decisions decisions.. l wonder how much Ogura's stock will go up or not after being disqualified. Hairsy is propping you up Rennie..

    Hi, You should get an idea from this hopefully. The pics look shit on here but we're clear enough on the phone.

    Great to see the racing back up and away. Bit of a procession but we'll see how it pans out. Ogura the surprise package so far and what a bargain! Everyone will be swapping him in for that price! Is it the first three races before anything changes?
  4. Nick the wanderer
    Any more for anymore.. is Jackie in? 24 hours left to pick a team for the first race..
  5. Nick the wanderer
    That soon came round. I enjoyed it last year, let's hope for more results going my way. Still a couple of days to get your team in !

    Now the decent thing to do would have been to mention it at the time of posting. But no, it seems you have been lobbying away behind the scenes. This shows me what sort of person you are. Zero respect to you. I've resisted putting a curse on Kettering Town, I've bigger fish to fry at the moment. Loser.

    Well what a stab in the back, a knife through the heart! What's the point of doing the research and going out to get these things if you're just going to give them to 'my mates in the cliquey club.' Very disappointing to say the least!

    What tosh! you didn't win you came second, first Loser!

    I watch the weather, high pressure usually means a period of relative calm so that's a good start.

    Sounds like it may be a starter motor issue, the solenoid sticking perhaps, that's where I'd be looking, good luck.

    I'd say get whatever you can for it, it's not going to worth a great deal, especially if off the road and not being used.

    Re having to change the jets with a different pipe, that may be so, but since you haven't ridden it with the current setup, you don't really know how it's going to go. I'd stay positive with the carbs for now. How is finding a new pipe going? I take it there's nothing to weld to on the old one.

    You could get a HPI Check that will tell you a fair bit, not sure how much they cost but under a tenner. Most people get one before they part with the cash. One way of knowing if a vehicle is imported is the Speedo will be in KPH. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135394348485?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=HkrIAFC9Rd-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=-Q-jPEg_T3u&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY This is the UK version from what I can gather. Same engine different body work.

    You can get a TZR/DTR manual up to 93 from Haynes. I did see the German one you must have seen. I'd be having a look at the vin numbers and checking the year of manufacture and where it came from. If it's a German bike that manual would be ideal.

    Fuel E10 is yellowy..

    Hi and welcome. One of the best things you can do is get a workshop manual. Haynes do a good one for instance, so you can familiarise yourself with everything. Next make sure you have decent tools. You will need JIS screwdrivers, they look like a Phillips but are not, you don't want to be rounding off the heads. Enjoy! Great little bike to play with.

    Hi, looks like more of a summer shoe/ ankle boot. They won't keep your feet dry but look good.
  19. Nick the wanderer
    That's the one.

    I would be dead if l had that much alcohol.. too old for that caper.
  21. Nick the wanderer
    We have one of those super modern ones, you just throw the washing in a basket and wait a couple of days..
  22. Nick the wanderer
    Older ones used mercury, heavy so it didn't fluctuate so much.

    Since you ask I'd have a Honda over a Harley every day of the week. There is a size guide on here somewhere where you can put in your height etc to get an overview of fit on specific bikes. May help.
  24. Nick the wanderer
    Welcome. Get warm clothes and waterproofs.

    Re the not idling thing and cutting out, l think that may be fuel starvation. It starts well enough. Needs an Italian tune maybe. If you get no faults when you get the obd reader set up that would suggest fuel even more to me, can't remember if you stripped and cleaned the carbs. If you are gonna be firing any cannons it should be for the wife on her special weekend! Good luck, enjoy.
