I've used optimates for years and years. Just remember though it's something like a 16 hr cycle on a larger 12V battery, so not quick on a newly...
I had 3 separate log books come back last year with mistakes in the addresses. In each case it was confirmed the correct information was provided...
Well if you don't try it you'll never have a clue how to do stuff. An oil pump seal is like a £2 O-ring, really very little effort to change it...
You sure do! We are still having ongoing problems, he went to use the thing for footy on Boxing Day, would it start? Nope. I got it started...
PS Good luck!
Carb will decide for you how much fuel it will take. When it has got enough, the float will rise, close the needle, no more will go in.
You shouldn't need to force it in, gravity ought to do. If the bowl is empty, the valve should be open and fuel should flow in and fill it up...

Sounds like it depends on whether they had one in stock or not. The things cost less than £2 and should really be replaced every time you have the...
Best way, I really enjoyed my time at college doing motorcycle maintenance. It was only a couple of days a week so I could work as well as doing 2...
Fair enough ;) I'm more the other way around. I do jobs on cars if I fancy it, usually though it goes to the garage. Bikes I can do OK. :)
Could be the selector, always check your clutch adjustment is OK first though before investigating the gearbox. So adjust your clutch cable to...
I knew I guy who despatched a Benly, it was sort of maroon coloured, he never missed a day and could get it to do pretty good slow motion...
PS which bike would you have again? I'm thinking if I get the chance I might go for an early pro-arm VFR 750, they are getting to be bargain...
