  1. could be a wire shorting out, check nothing is bare and touching the frame etc.
  2. Hamdeux Got a pair of Vee tyres on sale or return, still think they aren't worth putting on ? Ross

    Sounds like the cable is snagging somewhere it this only happens on full lock.
  4. Is Christopher Birch of New Zealand is Peter Birch's son ?

    Betor Shocks

    OFT I'm a bit lighter, but bike is probably heavier than most, new Rockshocks have 55lbs springs and seem quite soft. Haven't had a chance to try then yet as only got them on Thursday. I presume that the damping rate must contribute to the overall performance so spring rates in isolation are not the whole story ? Ross
  6. I have no trouble seating it, especially with the core out, but as soon as I let it down to 4/6 lbs it moves back.
  7. Got the same problem with X11's front & back on tube rims, with tubes. Will not stay in place, so interested in any answers as well.

    Lucas Coil

    Thanks Stork955, just wondered as Boyer and trials bits only seem to list this type of coil. Don't care about appearance as wont be seen on my bike anyway. Thanks Ross
  9. Got to B&Q, find a bit of steel chanel, place on front and back sprockets, gives fairly accurate line. http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?acti...;isSearch=false

    Lucas Coil

    Are there any advantages/disadvantages to using a Lucas type coil ? Any thoughts appreciated Ross
  11. Moving the s/a pivot forward must have widened the bike quite a bit ? That exhaust is not a thing of beauty !
  12. Good find, how thinks have moved on, I recon that some of the 250 cubs kicking about would give the Honda a run for its money !
  13. Hi millsbomb Does mick mills have a web site, google didnt throw anything up. Thanks Ross
  14. Thanks, just like to have it confirmed. Ross Still like to hear of a chain tool. (Ooo errr, matron)
  15. Really, really pleased to here of a positive outcome. (if only partial) Sadly it yet again is a poor reflection on the police, and I hope that they are suitable embarrassed. I wonder if they will have the audacity to include this in the "cases solved " pile

    http://www.trialsbits.co.uk/index.php?cPath=87_151 or make one !
  18. Put a new Reynolds Primary Chain on my B40 (first one in years, old one didn't seem stretched, but better safe than sorry) question is, do they stretch initially and need re-tensioned, or is this not generally a problem ? When fitting it there were dire warnings about using a conventional link rather than endless. The old chain had a link and was never a problem, any views ? Where can I get a tool to put chain links in, every cycle chain breaker has this facility,but I've never seen one for larger chains. Thanks Ross
  19. Talking of crazy ideas, just saw a 4 door 911 Porsche. Thought I was having a daymare !
