    Sprockets

    Thanks Matchlessman, I guess that JB are not longer in business as one of the 162 views would have details, the reason for wanting contact details was that they were really good quality and lasted well, better than the Renthals currently on. Ross
  5. Out of curiosity, what pressure do you run in the rear ?

    Sprockets

    Do JB Sprockets still exist ? Any recommendations for replacements, currently using 428 size 15t gearbox and 62t rear.(Talon) Happy with the gearing. Any thoughts ? Thanks Ross
  7. Many follow on bikes ON THE ROAD ONLY, can be good fun and much easier to park. Only officials & riders are allowed off road.
  8. "but I can't be a***d to fit them." Could be wrong, but not sure that's a legal defence. FWIW, I tried all the plastic and metal guards over the years but they broke, rusted, bent etc. The tyres apart from being free actually work.
  9. Good question, I have ridden a twin shock over a good part of this area, so it isn't that. Got to be a lack of enthusiasm to adapt the sections, pity.
  10. Car tyres cut to fit do the job of mud guards, free and last for ever.
  11. Thats assuming every household pays income tax, so even worse in reality.
  12. I think you have to fix the commutator connection anyway, and this will help to eliminate the source of the problem.
  13. No. but it's pretty quick and easy to weld on an extension (if you have a welder and grinder) just did mine a couple of weeks ago. Went from being a pain to not noticing them at all. Which is always a good sign, I think. Think 50lbs springs might still be to soft. Ross
  14. Meths is one of the few that cleans really well & dries without any residue. (white spirit will leave oil) Meths can be bought from a proper paint supplier. A bottle will probably last years, with the top on securely.

    Backpack weight

    Ever wondered what's lying dead in the burn upstream ? From 1st hand experience wouldn't risk it.
  16. Do many peeps enter on twin shocks ? Told its not suitable for pre-65.

    It looked like this, some time ago
  18. Hi Mark Just checked again and back down to 6'3" about 82 Kg. I have Rockshocks with dual rate springs 45/55 and pre-load at a few turns from minimum. Never have any experience of Falcons so cant comment. I first got Rockshocks for my B40 and liked them so much got a pair for the SWM. I think in the distant past I have used higher bars, but didn't like them and put them on something I was selling (as you do) Personally I would think about lowering the footrests rather than raising the bars, but it depends how original you want to keep it. Ross
  19. Agree completely re bike being legal, however its the usual low hanging fruit type of policing.
  20. Do Caddy's use alot of oil ? Heard they have a bit of a thirst.
  21. Sooooooo, do I understand that disc brakes and hydraulic clutches should be allowed ?
