the gear was already gone but the other gears work well and change smoothly . have just got a new water pump seal for the bike which was also gone w.hen i got it

I bought it from a guy in Mallaig

Sorry I don't have msn you could send me a pm and I will give you my phone number. I know the bike was sold as seen but when dad asked if it needed any work or if there was anything wrong they said it waz all ok and being local lads he believed em. and no George wasnt the seller he's a good egg. I I know 5th gear isn't used much but usually when one gear goes the rest soon follow. cheers please give me a ring.

dougie lampkin only wins events like the six day trails because of his minders if he didnt have them he wouldnt be able to do anything

there are some nice brand new hebo helmets on ebay that look the business they are about

when i bought the bike i wasn't able to try the bike out because the seller was staying on a street and as i am only 14 couldn't ride it on the road to test the bike. when i first got the bike home the first 4 gears were smooth to change before moving it into fifth and getting netural. i havent changed the oil yet as it was a local sale and have seen the bike in the past up in the trails club but will do as soon as possible. still feeling stupid for not counting the gears in the sellers garage thanks for the reply Doogzie

Has any one got advice about how i could fix the problem because i havent got any clues many thanks for the replies Doogzie

was a private sale so cant take it back but still need some help Ps dont have msn or any thing like that either

cheers will take all of the above on board

Hi everyone I haven't looked in for ages in fact since May last year. I have been getting more and more frustrated with my bike. It sits for ages starts no problem but then once I am up on the hill it won't start and I spend all day pushing it home. I have stripped the carb and emptied the tank changed the filters and the plug still it won't keep running reliabily and is hopless at starting again. I FIND IT SO UNRELIABLE THAT i TEND NOT TO To (sorry cap locks) take it out anymore cos it will just break down. Does this 1996 model have a condenser or are they electronic ignition help please before I give up for good. Cheers Doogzie.

Hi thanks for the replies so far I should have been clearer when I asked about the oil I was meaning the gear oil as mine has now gone below the sight glass. My dad changed the plug it was really dirty. Sammy Millers mate came up he is a veterain and said he thought the bike was running too hot like almost melting the rear mud guard. He isn't into modern bikes but was wondering if maybe the coolant wasn't circulating around the engine. Does the bike have a thermostat? I am now worried about starting it until I know incase I sieze the engine. Hope this makes scense. Waiting in anticipation. Cheers Doogzie.

engine is still hot after cleaning out carb and air filter and the bike has just had a new exhaust

any chance you know how much oil i need and what type
