Montys Runner 172

um...............









actually it is oil to be honest im now not too sure its always at the buttom of the filter though

gravity is amazing, touch it, does it feel sticky slimey like oil?

ah that answers it quickly



no



got your pm by the way let me know weather you want it or not imp:

fitted my new led handlebar lights a little while ago.



took a while to wire up but i got there in the end.

they actually fit perfect the ones that i put on my yellow runner did not.



also i put a new screw in my screen to stop it shaking.



sorry about the pic it was taken just now on my phone. my blue sidelight on too imp:

ghetto imp: took it after college

right had a bastard day. finished college so decided to go and get some clear lenses at last imp: i was eying up a 51 plate runner with evo panels and scorpion etc.



so i brought the clear lenses brought some orange bulbs and made my way home. i took one lense off then trying to get the other lense off i noticed it had been glued in. so took old bulb out went to putbulb in and realised the pins were in the wrong place.



so went to the local scooter shop for them to tell me they had moved all thre parts over 10 miles away. i only got some bulbs from them the day before.



now i have got the hump so file one pin off each so they fitted. put lenses on the front. i then decided to put the frosted lenses on the back instead of the ultra clear ones with the lexus light.



i fitted the 2 side ones but because of the plastic bit in the middle i couldnt put the middle one on :rtfm:



so now i have a ultra clear middle bit but im not overly bothered.



heres what it looks like now :bird: turned out good in the end

also got my 172 kit on order should be here wednesday if im lucky imp: :bird:

looking good... 172 nice one finally got around to getting one

I still think you should save for some Malossi F32 S's, would look shit hot on your bike along with the oversized disk.

to be honest mate. my bike has the old style forks but they are absoulutely mint.



if i was to change them which is very unlikely unless they break or seize up i properly would buy some vx ones as i had them on my old runner and they were really good

yes



got the news i wanted to hear today. the note for my 172 kit was indoors when i got in so have to pick it up tomorrow.



ive been dropping hints to my garage to get it fitted by telling him i want him to look at instructions etc



he says hes not doing anywork as hes refurbing but most of the time hes sitting around.



hes getting me a 180 belt and 12.5 gram rollers as well tomorrow as well as some semi synthetic oil to run the bore in :bird:





but now my brakes are making a noise looked at my front pads and there really low so will need to get them changed asap imp:



cant wait for some power imp:

mmmm

awesome bit of kit i have to admit. all i can say is these kits need to be ported badly :w00t:



got the 90 main jet as well. new 180 belt and 12.5 gram rollers coming tomorrow as well as some semi synthetic oil to run the bore in



only thing is the garage cant fit it till next week :rtfm: so its just sitting in my room looking nice am well pissed off because i thought he would get me to leave it tomorrow morning so he can do it through the day.



i want to have a bash myself but dont want to lose ?200. the only bit i cant do or havent learnt is how to bleed the coolant and fit the reeds as i have never done it before. putting the rings on etc is no problem. oh yer never fitted the circlips either :emb:

its about fuckin time lol....you wont regret spending the money tho

new pics as promised. weather is wicked outside. nice and bright



sorry bikes a mess but its got a flat tyre so need to egt that done before i clean it :w00t:

update project......

this bike is now a running project after my crash imp:

got my new forks today £90 delivered.. got another carb and inlet manifold to try as well :bird:

Image no longer available

£90 fuckin hell i could have got u sum new style ones for like £50/£60... i sold mine for £70 sprayed black...they was 03plate 4 stroke forks... but cant wait to see them on the bike..

fitted my forks today. well chuffed. also fitted my airbox as the open filter was fucking with performance.

anyway gave the exhaust a quick spray as well but the can was dodgy so couldnt do much more. changed my inlet manifold as well as the other one was cracked quite abit
