Hi
Yes you push the piston on I use a piece of wooden dwell but you can use a screwdriver.
Same technique open nipple push in close nipple.
I also place a peace of wood 12mm wide in between the pads to stop the pots coming out to far.
Hi
I can tell you the caliper needs to be at the lowest point i know it seems strange but it works.
Normally I would bleed then hold the lever in over night allowing air to travel up.
Working on bikes can be both rewarding and frustrating at the same time
Hi
I had the same problem. The pipe goes up then down on the bike and its hard to remove all the air
It is easier to remove all the brake system and bleed on your bench hold the piston higher than the caliper.
Once bleed refit.
Hi
Had one as my first bike, people told me to powerful for a novice but it all depends upon how much you twist the throttle.
it depends on where you are going to ride as it can pull your arms out.
As with old bikes some parts are getting hard to find.
It seems to be a little pricey.
Hi all

There are plenty of clubs around you , look at Acu Midlands wed site.
There's a trial most weekends
Most club trials are fine for older bikes

Hi
Thanks for the advice but when I kicked it over last night there seems to be loads running out where the rear box meets and it smells really strong of petrol.
Could it be the float in the carb
Should I just keep running it until it gets red hot.
Regards
Wayne

Hi
Haven't any idea on tyres but just ordered a front and rear mitts trials tyre for just under £100 I am returning to trials and as long as they have knobs on they will do.
The amount of use they will have it's a good chance that they will perish first
