    hello guys
    Seeming to be problem after problem, my bike is seemin as the choke is stuck on as when i go to pull up hill it just doesnt pull at all im in 1st gear going up a hill and and going under 5mph. then it seems like the engine is flooded as it cuts out when i stop. So im guessing the choke stuck on. Any Ideas how to fix this or should i just take it to a garage if so could you say a price?
    Cheers Jay

    Haha that was my first reaction! Front brake, back light, exhaust has been brazed ( need a new 1 thinking of technigas ) A few Other thing, Labor was £90 ( £30 an hour ) V.A.T £40 and some other stuff but the labor and v.a.t added alot :p, this bike has cost me so much so far i just want to ride it :L I would work on the bike myself but none of my family know much accept my brother, they like cars not bikes :p, O well hopefully be on the road soon! Cheers
