    smart lights 20w power and come with btry........i have used the on my cycle and cars have flashed me to dip the beam when on full......lol. Should be just the trick i guess good luck with the trial.
  5. gents what we have to remember here is that the mot is not the same as the law. ie the bike does not need a horn or speedo for the mot. It does however need it to be ridden on the road. if any lights are fitted they must work, so take all of them off. numberplates are the worse thing size etc. the important thing to remember is that, construction and use offences covered by the police are not the same as mot legislation, so in effect you could pass your mot and then get stopped and reported for an offence by the police if things are not correct. hope that helps. min reqirement on the road. 1.horn (not a bell) 2. legal tyres (enough said) 3.numberplate 4.working speedo (wireless cycle comp is good to 199mph so perfect) 5.insurance 6.mot all do happy riding.....

    Should be easy enough, remember to clean up the pads and put a little grease on the rear of them when replacing. there should be an allenkey bolt that holds them in simple really. hope thats of some help..
  12. Should have four washers with he dog bone section. and 1 which is the regulator washer at the rocker arm or triangular shaped peice. so in all the whole thing has 6 washers hope that helps; Des
  13. I have managed to remove using a strap oil filter remover, which works fine. it was the only way to change the seals. otherwise you can not pull the two parts apart.
  14. my questions are. 1. My bike is fitted with forks that require the top part of the fork leg which is gold and marked as ohlins to be unscrewed before it will allow the fork stancion to be removedand access to the seals. 2. Is this normal. I ask because previous bikes have been simple enough to change seals, remove lower bolt in the leg, removed top caps, remove dust seal and retaining clip then internals eventually pulling the stancion and leg apart once the old oil is removed. mine will not allow me to puul the parts apart. 3.So in all I can removed the lower parts of the fork leg and upper parts all of which unscrew.three seperate parts to the lower legs and then stancions. 4. Is this a standard fork for this year of bike or has the previous owners up graded tham at some point. I look forward to getting a reply tried to add a photo of the bike so people can see what I mean thanks Des.
  15. Thank you Jon..

  22. des replied to as iow's topic in UK Trials Talk
    Sections were great to watch and challeging for all riders, I take my hat of to those boys-girls. The seemed to be a lack of grip i most sections due to weather but same for all who took part. Great day out had by all well done Scarborough dmcc.
  23. most kill switches are wired from low tension wire on terminal to an earth point, hope that helps.

  25. des replied to revfinn's topic in Gas Gas
    it should be a 50-1 mix 100ml to 5 ltrs some like to run a little leaner so 75ml to 5ltrs should be ok to just see how smoky the bike get or better still ask the previous owner what they used.
