  1. Redcar bowl used to host world darts finals for years!!!
  2. Bit off topic here, but i was thinking this, if i was out on my trials bike and i crossed a road, or rode up one a bit to get to the next section, i could get banned, fined, etc for having no tax, insurance, etc etc, but on a horse you can go where you want, if its a safety thing, well a bike is more controllable than a horse, it can only do what the operator tells it to do, whereas a horse could flip out, also more importantly, you cant switch a horse off!! they even have emmisions (stupid i know but they do) (ps, im not excusing chavs on pitbikes and crossers here, who should be snipered on sight) oh, and bring back fox hunting, yet another tradition gone, it'll be fishing they are after banning next!!
  3. exactly, i was going to tell him over the phone as i was too knackered to type, whoever did it forgot something.....like the entire 'charging' system the dopy gits. still gimme a bell this morning magicmat
  4. buy ome new wheel bearings you tight git!! lol, they are only cheap, paoli shock can be serviced.....leave to shocker expert, swing arm marks, need some pics please and torque for swng arm bolts....just tight, with plenty of grease
  5. pro's are different mate, bleed from top, open reservior cap, close nipple and forget, gently work lever back and forth a small amount, you will see bubbles, keep doing, takes a while, until no bubbles, be gentle tho. id say check master cylinder as well as 9/10 they are knackerd at that age

    sti 500 in, she'll be right
  8. yes, use impact driver, but find airleak first lol
  9. I dont think the problem lies with your flywheel weight. I love the power range of the old techno's compared with my rev 3. If it is taking a while to come back down off the revs, it could be air leaking, check inlet rubber, reed gasket, if ok, then its crank seals/centre csket im afraid matey, this would also cause a lazy response as you will have set your carburetion for an overly lean condition, obviously you have cleaned the carb out right?
  10. seal skinz are a lot comfyer, they have a membrane in them, available from millets or any army surplus store

    Top Yoke Lock Nut

    the threads streach as you tighten them up over the years and they vibrate loose
  12. neither, diadora stone twos,gearne (some places have them on offer aroud that price range, or the more expensive hebo's NOT ECO (horrid--had a pair) i have used same stone twos for nearly 2 years now with pair of seal skinz socks, and am jesitant to replace them, they will last another 2 years. alpine stars soles wear out quickly compared to most, not had experience with novogar, but when time eventually comes, next boots will be diadora for sure
  13. rock oil chain wax, pm me if you need details od somewhere to get it from mail order at discount price
  14. specialy made ball hone for my delapena leaves lovely finish and doesnt knock the ****e out of my machine, although my best frond who has a plating business normally does them for me, i dont like honing after prolonged use of the cylinder as for blade hones in drils, forget it, and wd40 doesnt stop tearing, always try and use proper honing oil, or the oil the engine normally runs in, if using ball hone on drill. my delapena uses proper coolant
  15. if you pay postage ill do it for free for you, im a 2 and 4 stroke engine builder by trade and have all equipment in my garage lol, only takes 10-15 mins
  16. Gotta be a beta or scorpa, I work on the things for a living and the buid quality of the gassers and shercos are appauling In my honest opinion. I get to see everything that goes wrong on these things, and it always seems to boil back to poor materials, and poor engineering, shercos and gassers have improved a small amount, but sherco i think have gone backwards with the amount of warrenty work that has been done recently
  17. tell me that the ball bearing is there on the push shaft,,,,, please tell me lol
  18. was it always like this from when you bought it? have you had the clutch or clutch slave cylinder out at any time??
  19. Loads of rev 3 bits on fleabay UK at moment bud

    Running Problems

    no, inless you know a really good welder, best way is........... fill with thinners, slosh around for ages, then plug one end, let stand for couple of hours, remve plug empty thinners, then stand inlet (big diameter) side down in a bowl over night, watch the tar come oozing out
