  1. Anyone who is in any kind of business should accept negative comments as part of a learning process or suggestions on doing things differently next time, my main criticisms were after reading the web site i was expecting entertainment and an auto jumble like they have at telford, the bikes on show had no placards saying what they were who rode them and how old they were, it said there was a live band but found out after we were there and paid the
  2. a kickstart type format would have been much better, the sections looked very easy to me and im sure any half decent rider would clean the lot, very disapionted with the show that with the land and space available could have been so good,
  3. sorry to dissapoint but just got back from the show (sat) what a waste of
  4. photos of my convertion, got it working well now, http://s822.photobucket.com/albums/zz147/lloydie66/
  5. i bought this frame, all i can say is that now been built up it has gained about 1 1/2 inches of ground clearance steering is sharper as the shocks are now mounted so the back end is higher will try it out properly this weekend at the earl shilton 2 day
  6. Thanks guys points & condenser changed no problem since, so far got about 6hrs use out of one plug!! fingers crossed sorted
  7. thanks guys points & condensor are now on order, will let you know!!!!
  8. right im using silcolene premix, useing the same mix in my lads ty80 with no problem,i have to carry a spare plug with me, as soon as it cuts out i remove the plug that ia a nice brown colour check if its sparking (not) change to a new one and off we go again go through about 10 plugs since the rebore so any muck has gome by now, could the condenser cause a problem like this as iv not changed that yet
  9. got my ty running great, only problem after about 2 hours use it starts missfiring then stops, no spark, change the plug and off it goes again no problem for about another 2 hours, iv got the mix right by the colour of the plug, its just had a rebore and crank seals, exhaust is a new wes system so not blocked, dont think any electrics are getting wet as the only wire to the coil is covered in silicon sealant so is the plug cap, anyone got any ideas!!!!!
  10. iv tried new cable, ebc shoes, other shoes that have the slots in, drum degreased and they still didnt work very well, without changing the wheel its all new, the fantic wheel came at a bargain price so gave that a try, but all are no where near as good as the drum on my mates kt250 kwack
  11. tried everything to get the drum brake to work well but to no avail so tried this and fitted a fantic front wheel & disc on my ty175 with an aprila bembo caliper, & suzuki rm brake master, a set of wheel spacers were custom made so i could use the original spindle, and a cutom made caliper bracket. forks were turned round and swopped left to right so the caliper is on the back of the fork leg, still needs some fine tuning as im still not happy with it, but yes i can be done, as for why? coz i can
