It’s always worth going over the whole bike with a spanner as part of your regular maintenance. All the nuts and bolts have a tendency to work lose, especially on a two stroke!

Or even a universal one?

Can anyone recommend an aftermarket side stand for a GasGas txt pro? I’m missing the bracket so I need the lot!

The best sound has to be a Matchless G80 Motocross bike with a straight through pipe!

I’d have stayed thirsty than drink the remnants Not sure how it could have been but let's hope it was a mistake! Most people at motorcycle events are the most generous you are likely to meet, I underestimated the distance of a venue and as I drove onto the field ran out of diesel! The guy I broke down next to promptly syphoned a gallon of diesel from his motorhome and refused to accept any payment for his diesel or help!

Don’t worry too much, its peanuts now with the new living wage

According do my ACU Licence, it clearly states that its a Licence/Registration Printed under my mug shot, not that it makes any difference what its called

Join a local club, they will give you a membership number to obtain a licence from the ACU you can still do it the old way with a form (you will still need a membership number) : https://www.acu.org.uk/RidersMembers/License-Forms.aspx

Yes, it ridiculous. I was fortunate to find a load of cast billets at a local scrap yard The only down side to this is I don’t know the grade, but I’ve made a few nice vee blocks with it

Cast iron, I had some done years ago by InMotion for a pursang. I have also done some myself, but Its hard to get the cast at a reasonable price

what's the difference between a premier amal & the standard?

'Centrifugal clutch which enables the machine to be operated with only one hand' Is this in case of a minor accident….

It would be a lot cheaper to stick with the c15 motor, building bitsa's has a tendency to spiral in costs I’ve never had any real problems with the standard c15 motor, found the to be fairly strong and reliable even with standard ignitions

I run all my air cooled bike on 40:1 without any problems, and smoke free Silkolene Comp2

You could do it with a small hone and drill, the type they use on car wheel cylinders Aluminium isn’t the best material to hone but it should do it The only problem you may have is the crack on the inside may act as a stress riser, and it will probably crack the weld (just keep an eye on it)

Money!

As stated above, it only causes a problem if you use it on the road

What’s the advantage of fat bars, I’ve never had a problem with standard Renthal bars?

the bantam is a tight fit

21" Front (WM1) 18" Rear (WM2 or WM3, I prefer WM3) If you are using bantam hubs 40 Hole rims

My old BSA has an advance / retard that's thumb operated

A 92 year old man is walking through a park and sees a talking frog. He picks up the frog and the frogs says, “If you kiss me, I will turn into a beautiful princess and be yours for a week.” The old man puts the frog in his pocket. The frog screams, “Hey if you kiss me, I will turn into a beautiful princess and make love to you for a whole month.” The old man looks at the frog and says, “At my age I’d rather have a talking frog!”

If you do need new ones, buy them from a bearing supplier. They are a fraction of the price than from bike dealers

Make sure its chained to the floor with one or more large ground anchors! And keep them out of sight
