to avoid ques some clubs up here have different start sections the one i rode on sunday was easy start at section 1 clubmen start at section 5 hard start at section 10 which did work queing wasnt that bad, i must admit if there are 15 or more riders queing at a section i will come back to it but for me its more of me not sat wasteing time rather than gaining any advantage. there was a father and son that seem to push in which doesnet bode well for the sport if they are been tought to push in from a early age jsp

Agreed thats what caused my problems, bad advice from the dealer i bought it from, i spoke to Nigel Birkett and he arranged for me to take it to a more qlued up dealer and i wont be going anywhere else. map 12 is also a slightly better map, seems to run cleaner rev more and tick over a bit faster. jsp

Mine was doing that after running ok for 1 or 2 hours it wouldnt start, i would then change the plug and it would fire into life. i took it back to my dealer where he backed off the mixture and reset the throttle position sensor and its been fine ever since "touch wood". jsp

i hope its as good as it looks, as thats the only down side to mine, its a bit of a bugger to start from cold, just dont think ive got the knack yet. its been fantastic today in the snow and ice, its gripped for england jsp

thanks for the info everybody, i will get it sorted and keep an eye on it jsp

No theres only wheel spacers which fit in the bearings and there both there, did try using a washer but it did the same, then when i removed the bolt and cam from the brake side you could see the mark that the spindle had made. which ment everything is tigtening up to the spindle but that isnt enough to tighten the wheel in the swinging arm jsp

sorry no, do you think the spindle could have started to stretch ? its always been hard to stop the brake side snail cam from spinning when to tried to tighten or loosen the wheel but with me shortening the spindle its stoped doing that now. you could see a mark on the back of the snail cam which matched the wheel spindle, so when it was tight it was like the spindle was slightly longer than the gap in the swinging arm and it wasnt tightening the wheel fully. if that makes sense jsp

i ve seen that on facebook i would be very interested to see how. Sunlingkau did you see my latest post in the rear wheel removal topic ? jsp

had a strange day today i noticed the snail cam on the brake side wasnt on the swinging arm stop, tried to tighten up the bolt but still no better, you could pull the wheel and move it. i ve now worked out that for some strange reason the rear wheel spindle is tightening on the snail cams but that still isnt enough, i ve shortened the spindle by 2mm and now ever thing seems ok. but this has got me stumped as to how or why this has happened. any ideas ? jsp

Use the cheapest out of X11, IRC, or dunlops as you can get punctures in every tyre. as i found out after wrecking a 8 week old xlite in a sharp rockstep 4 punctures in one outing. dunlops will stay on the rim even if flat but they are a bitch to change jsp

does that replace the rubber cap ? will the foam stop water getting in ? jsp

dont mention that one of my riding companions isnt happy as he went round for 16 and was pleased we had tied.......then came the results and hes not a happy camper jsp

good website that fellas thanks for that jsp

is there a gaskit or seal on the clutch casing ?

i do seem to struggle aswell, local dealer has told me to remove the clutch cover next time so its go two exits. small price to pay for such a good bike in my eyes jsp

map 12 is awesome runs cleaner revs out and tick over slightley higer, not one stall today, where on map 11 ive had a few stalls jsp

you can get a breathable foam from beta uk which i had for my evo, so ive cut that up and fitted it over the holes in the rubber cap that fits on top of the filter box, ive also covered the top louvres in the plastic cover that fits on top with some breathable roofing felt and it hasnt effected the performance of the bike, but nothing gets in, not even water jsp

i know for a fact the C of C was there last night in the dark finishing off setting out. one good thing about tong is that get a few bikes through the sections and it sorts them out. no sign of ice when i rode, went round for 16 on the harder route, and the ossa on map 12 is AWESOME. i always think in this country you need to be able to ride in any conditions so i practice in all conditions. jsp

the futures bright the futures GREEN jsp

i took mine in yesterday for remaping and i spoke to the dealer about i was having problems starting from cold (about 6-8 kicks) he tried and it fired up in 3. what you need to do is 2 sloppy kicks and then take the slack out of the kick start and then jump on it, i tried again last night when it was cold again and it started 3rd kick, i am sure i just havent been kick it hard enough. when its hot its 1 or 2 kicks max jsp

well thats the bike remaped just need to get out on it now for a ride jsp

got mine booked in for re mapping this week will let you know how it rides next week jsp

the writing on the wheels isnt on the edge its up where the spokes come through the rim, a s3 rim tape set would cover the writing but not ones like these jsp

no i mean a spare wheel for a 2012 bike jsp

Has any one bought a spare wheel for a 2012 ossa and if so whats the cost likeor can you modify one to fit ? jsp
