how often should they be done? what is in it? new rings and gaskets? how long do the cranks and things last one of them? swopping the ludix for one as im 17 in 3 months and im in casts for 2 anyway the one im getting has done 11000miles or killometers and hasnt been rebuilt since 7000 would you reckomend i change the rings and gaskets befor i ride it? and iv been told the new shape panels are a strait swop. is this true? thanks adam
yeah change the rings asap, if you can get a new piston aswell,new gaskets , and generally service it,like air filter,spark plug,brake pads,all liquids , you knowthe drill. and yes, new panels,wheels and the rest just slap straight on it
ill get on with that as long as it all goes through sunday how much would you say it will be worth if i decide to sell it? i probably wont as i dont want to give up on mopeds bikes etc just wondering about value is a y reg 2001 11000km/miles as for the new panels iv looked into it and it looks very expencive so that wont happen thanks for the help btw
bodywork is very expansive for rs's. probs be worth about 11-12 hundred quid but i aint too sure, mate just sold his 2 weeks ago, 04 plate,11months tax&mot,engilne rebuild at 8k and it had 9.5 when he sold it, mint condition too, hw got 2.1 k for it
its ok got a quote today for 220 third party only so i think ill be keeping it pick it up tomorro then iv got 2 months of not bein able to ride it cus iv broke my ankle then another month or so untill im 17 i suppose it means i can rebuild the engine and forks i suppose
YEP. Thats probably for just a genuine nose cone about 1200 quid or a medium sized side panel.... like a under fairing or tail piece ow and buy the way i wouldnt even think about TPO insurance, may be cheap vt whats the point when a bunch of CUNTS try or succed in nicking your pride and joy, then all is lost and your fucked. rs s are fast BECAUSE they are light not overly powerful, looked at the mx125 aprilia makes they only do 90 at a push and guess what engined they are based on?? a loss of nearly 30mph because of aerodynamics and a steel frame i think from memory the frame is something stupid like 15 kgs .. hardly a 2 man job to nick as the lights come to about my waist area very easy to nick so sort it out buy a few chains disc locks an alarm and tpft insurance
ok i think it will be tpft 220 for tp so im guessin about 350 for tpft? depends how im doin for money in january still need to fix it found out it has no choke now another thing to replace but cant moan i swopped it for a ludix
no shit hence the reson why i mention "guess what engine the mx is based on?" yes it is geared lower but the rs is still faster stock than a mx stock the rs has an ALLY frame and ALLY wheels
mx has ally wheels but being geared lower the mx will only do 90 but will be bit quiker lower end. how wants to do 100+ on a 125
ye your right my bad i thought the mx had steel spoked wheels till today my point being anyway to the lad was to pick theft insurance because the bike itself weighs about as much as kate moss
both and the lever thing but i think thats part of the switchgear and yer it does seem light think its gunna cost me quiet abit to fix it and get it insured
yeah the leaver thingy is part of the switchgear, will probs cost you like 300 to put right, i mean its not alot of work , its just missin parts that are needed, thats ofcourse if your gearbox is sound
my old rs used to leave me mates MX for dead off the line, and top end too! was both fully derestricted and he had a arrows pipe and i didnt!
from what i hear the 50's eat gearbox's and the 125's eat engines but they both may eat both ill find out next year wont i aha wanna try and fix it as cheap as possible ill buy cracked panels and repair them and spray them myself if i have to choke cable is £30 on ebay why is it that expencive for a fucking cable! i imagin a aerox choke cable would maybe fit a rs? i have one spare ill give it a go if not its the expencive option
