Thanks guys it’s sounding positive Greg

Hi is the motorcycle carrier rack for a Bultaco Sherpa t any good. It would be on back of a new navara any recommendations. Or leave alone ? Greg r

Lineaway I have had no luck at all trying find a hose. So as I said make the best of what we have gorilla super glue gel works wonders. And let the search carry on. Good luck with yours Greg

Ho dear not looking good. Will have to get the superglue out lol thank you for the reply’s Greg. R

Hi all just acquired a gorgeous Tl250. And I am looking for a Short hose from the carb to the air box this one has split the last owner tried a quick fix with superglue. not having much luck online finding one Greg R

Thanks for the tips. I will look into that one with the fork seals ?

Thank you all for the advice. will sort it when parts come love the bike tho.

Yes only picked the bike up yesterday and the air box had fuel in it this morning. But I had left the tap open I don’t know if that would cause the problem. Thank you for your reply. yes will do will order a gasket set. just strange why petrol was in the air box. greg

Hello. just acquired a nice 198A Just ordering some parts could anyone tell me what fork seals are required. also the mikuni carb is leaking but it is going into the air box taken a pc of the carb seems to be coming from the bottom is it a ball bearing ? I have ordered a new air hose as the one on is split . Any help would be appreciated Greg. R

Thanks for the advice guys. Taken all the filler off looks like someone as tried to use solder as there are big blobs all over will have take some time and find the right person to sort it. I have a plastic spare for the time being. My other two bikes have fibreglass tanks they have been sealed but you can not leave petrol in them. The removal of ethanol looks good Do others use this process. thank you

Well my 158. That I have owned for about 5 years and done nothing to it. Always been too busy. Proper chuffed kicks up on the 1st kick every time BUT now I have a petrol leek it’s an alloy tank but never looked very good on one side so off it came and stripped it. Wow what a mess someone has done just wondered can it be salvaged ? Nice to know what you guys think would really like to save it. Here’s a picture

Thank you I have reset as woody said. Fired up and running a bit revy and a bit smokey. A bit more tweaking should get there. thanks sherpa325

Thank you woody. I will reset it. I have 3 bikes to sort out. Somehow ?

Whoops yes the back plate was in correct place I had the flywheel set on the key and no start and back fire so was checking other posts that said key not needed. So took it out and altered the stata. And fired up. Did I just get lucky and should I put the key back in and try again woody ? l know I’m a bit green but love spending time with the bike and learning from you guys

Yes thanks for the reply’s. great bit of kit from in motion. Should be plug in and start. Went in garage for a few hours today. The woodruff key is not needed Carl. and as Johnjsy said if the timing is right it will fire. So I had to alter it just a little bit and it started up happy days. Again thanks for the reply’s picture of my 158
