Well, for the benefit of the curious and future generations - I finally got the thing out, but I'm not too happy with how it went down. I ended up...
Well I'm no closer. I bought a cold chisel, as recommended elsewhere - the tip was destroyed within two minutes. I'm back to using this thing that...
Well I decided to spend 30 quid on a "Sealey MS040 Steering Stem Race Removal Tool" - or should I say waste 30 quid, as the f@cking thing claims...
OK you guys are right of course, they're just wedged in so tight they looked like part of the frame to me. So I'm gonna change the subject of this...
(EDIT - this first post is now irrelevant, please scroll to post no.4!!) Hi all, my scoot got failed at MOT due to fork wobble. So I got the...
Hi all, the transmission went out on my '07 Aprilia Mojito 125 (This has more or less the same CVT as some Piaggio and Vespa models). So I opened...
