Help me lord, it is catchy!

Are you suddenly worried?

Speaking of lights, I viewed a couple things this week a bit shocking. Firstly, seems the gov have outlawed the production ov standard incandecent light bulbs for the future. Second was the photo of a Chineese made CFL(or whatever you call it) that blows flame out the side when the ballast goes! Feck me, I am likeing LED's better all the time!

Wondering if anyone has any pics or info on the weights and attachments for the 2T motors. Are they running the Leonelli mags on the Evo's?

I promise I never said anything about what you did with the yellow snow!

I have had the unfortunate priv of working on a few of them back in the day. Bike made better beer cans when melted down! Oh, they did ride nice as a cruiser! I think it was about '79 or so I picked up a Suzy 750 4T. It was the mutts nuts, although not quite as quick as the 1000cc bike, was nimble and fast, specially with a 900 Yoshi kit installed.

Oh good then, finally get her going! These things seem fairly rare, but such a pain! I doubt the white wire was it, as that should be the ground circuit. Let me know what you want to do with the old stuff, may send it off for repair. MC

Talkina bout your bum! No wonder you have a bad reputation!!!!!

What I hear that is BJ's shed. Bikes go in, and are never seen again! Black Hole! Heard he got a "fogging" setup for to wd 40 the entire thing! Labor saving over polishing parts!

"The cause of the crash is clearly outlined in the report. Most of the flight was captured on video and it is clearly evident that unnecessary risks were taken and that the accident was completely avoidable." So what is the cause? Mechanical failure? The gov will allways point to you as completely avoidable. Should hav avoided the bucket o' bolts! Same time said this? The AAIB said a phenomenon that can give an impression the controls are jammed may have led to the significant deviation in the flight path that the pilot was trying to recover from. Disorientation, misjudgment or other factors may have led to this deviation but the cause of the accident could not be positively determined. So which is it? Early witness said the machine making unusual noise. Total BS!

I think he is full of crap, and trying to push off something. He needs to stick with riding, not oil engineering. Flip side to all this seems to me that the high quality simi blends work just as well in a trials bike, and in most cases the less you use the better off you are whisst putting about. The type of running to occasionally blow them out is far more important than this debate.

A few thoughts, it may work ok, If anything , it must work as a "guide" to prevent the wadding of the chain as much as an impact absorber, and thus the top end of it needs some strength(the part that Chris said got bent)if done in plastic, so a similar slightly thicker x-y profile, yet a bit deeper z axis (tapering to the main body) may be in order to achieve the neccessary regidity of the top arm. As far as preventing fracture of the case bolt embossments, the slave cylinder itself is well bedded into the case, thus providing good strength. Never seen one break out, yet only slave cyl damage and top screw damage, so it one were to wrap up a chain "that severely" to do it in, it was going to happen reguardless. I did notice at a glance that the normal chain clearance to the MC is 3-4mm at best with a standard 10t gear on the 2T and regina light chain at the closest point.. This clearance is probably reduced to nothing with a heavy link chain. M2C

Seems to me they have a couple degrees rake built into the clamps so the fork tubes are not parallel with the stering head angle. Not sure if all bikes are the same.

You need to stop by here so I can take you flying! Good reasons I stay away from the whirly things! If you are dead, can they still revoke your license?

Send me a bike down and I will take it to Trials Training Days at TTC. Let all ride it, be the star of the weekend! Lots of folk there!

You can normally rotate the flywheel by hand and feel the compression as it builds, yet verticle or lateral movement in the wheel, NO. Think you still gotta pull it off to inspect, if you hear no other mechanical nose or roughness rotating by hand.

Ones in the pic don't look like leather to me. Must be some cheap version.

Started out trying to find this song, but it had the VEVO content so appears it would probably not work in UK, but the odd blend works even better! I think this is the only rap song I ever liked! HERE!

Mmmm, interisting! Never really looked! I think this may explain something hidden in the back of my poor old memory cells! I suddenly want a 10T on it! Different bike! Possibly not so quick to come on the power? Keep it in the low revs and let it chug? Sweet down low? Wish I had one to play with. Send me a "thingie"

I am afraid mine is not worth that much. If it were, my wife would gladly take the money!

If you call ryan he will bring what you need!!!!

Well, if the flywheel were that loose to rattle I would think one would be able to feel the nut loose or move the weight by hand. The keyway is just a little metal half moon thing that fits a groove in the crankshaft ant sticks out to align into the groove in the flywheel to align things upon assembly. If it has gone, then the bits on the crank will be sheared off smooth, with the top still in the groove in the flywheel most likely. I cannot think of any direct relation with your claim of disfunctional clutch, as even if the clutch was buggared and making noise, should not prevent starting.

Well, that pretty much sucks. Double checking the flywheel is good, yet from what you have described? but you gotta go there anyway. Seems the coils seldome fail, so I would let him have it back, just part of the process one cannot overlook. Even sheared keyways are fairly rare, and in your case claiming intermittant spark? because a sheared key still fires, just at the wrong time, so in most cases you are back to the stator, and what I suspect the erratic operation of the hall sensors, yet no way to test in operation. Ryan is always good to work with and helpful. I do not know if he has any rebuilt stators, but as I understand you can get just a stator new now, where as in years past one had to get the pricy rotor assembly. Gotta ask him?

This jetting sounds a bit odd for a stock Dellorto, reguardless the reeds. Should be close to 36/118 i would think. Out of box setting for the Kiehin would be 45/125 so a 43 pilot will work, yet the main sounds a bit rich. I would leave the oil at 80:1
