Vertigo 2020 fan on constantly
Fan was on constantly on last ride out.Coolant checked.Attached my GET WiFi reader and it showed nothing.Except fan control was blocked out?Temperature sensor read open circuit for resistance between ground and terminal with wire disconnected?Seemed to be cutting in and out tonight when testing?Anyone seen this before of any ideas?

Bultaco front brake identity?
Hi can anyone identify this front brake that I have in my 1966 model 10 Sherpa?It works great where as the one in my 1968 model 49 not so great.The “loose one is the m49 one.The one in the bike is the mystery one?

Bultaco Sherpa T 250 petcock position
Nice bike.Don't know if they add ethanol to petrol in Australia.If they do drain tank before leaving the bike for anytime as the ethanol attacks the fibreglass tank.

New value for money GasGas
There’s a saying “How do you make a small fortune in motorsport?”Answer;You start with a large fortune!”If you want any guaranteed trade in price maybe a gasgas pcp scheme would suit you?I don’t know if JS does one but you could always ask??

2017 Vs 2019
I snapped a linkage which had a crack in the casting.This took the airbox and rear mudguard with it.Rear mudguards are fragile.That's my experience of them.Oh and i hated the five speed gearbox.On the moors constantly changing between fourth and fifth?Other than that no better or worse than other bikes?

2018 gp hidria ignition
I’ve got an electrical problem with my hidria ignition system on my 2018 gp it will fire then die .No spark I’ve swapped plugs coil and cdi with a friends bike and it makes no difference it’ll run on his but not mine.If you leave it for a while the spark will return but not for long I’ve had all connectors apart and kill switch disconnected and connected?Im thinking stator?

Still nobody has answered this question?Load of tosh about brexit!This person is asking a valid question about why it's free in the two country's he's visited but not in the third country the U.K.?

250 or 300 Vertical? Custom maps?
Gearbox replaced under warranty.Electronic control box replaced under warranty.Used fuel filter sent in post,if that counts as warranty.Fuel pump I had to diagnose and replace myself with an upgrade from USA ,same fuel pump as a Ktm sxf 250 by the way.Cracked engine mount replaced.Never did solve the leaking crank case seal?Gave up I have to admit in the end.I maybe should have spent a bit more and bought the titanium framed one?

250 or 300 Vertical? Custom maps?
Mine softened itself!The fuel filter split lowering the fuel pressure and weakening the mixture.The fuel pump then gradually lost pressure over a few months again weakening the mixture.The electronic control box corroded and i lost all power again that made it slower!I spent that many nights in the garage the wife thought i was having an affair with someone in there?The owner of the local pub filed a missing report with the police!Good luck with your vertical/vertigo!

Need a lovely pair.... (of tyres).
Really?You just like starting pointless arguments?
-
Need a lovely pair.... (of tyres).
So you like trials tyres where the rubber compound is so hard that it gives zero grip but lasts forever?

‘O’ Ring chain with half link
I was going to suggest that!Ive had only bad things happen with half links,I think ive got a hatred of them!
-
Need a lovely pair.... (of tyres).
No such thing!Do you want them to grip or just last forever?You cant have both!

More torque device for all bikes - air ionizer
The only way to get more oxygen into an engine is with forced induction i.e. Turbo or supercharging you can also add nitrous oxide which releases more oxygen on burning.If you do any of these without adding more fuel you will get detonation and destroy your engine.Now putting a magnet in your airbox will do nothing to oxygen molecules which have zero charge so if you aren't putting anymore oxygen in you can't get any more power.Bet Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes haven't got magnets in his air filter!Car manufacturers don't use them as they do nothing!At least all the crap on eBay are cheap this is €350!Someone is going to lose/make a lot of money!
