Have you tried cleaning out the full exaust system, it could be an excessive build up of oil through out the front and mid section.

Just phoned nigel birkett and you are right its 300cc in each leg but if its wrong take it up with mr birkett.

The best solution to that problem is send me your new tyre and i can send you my well worn come slick type tyre i have at no extra charge.

The kick start on my beta went in the same place welded it may as well of used a banana complete waste of time, went out bought a new one

If you want to weld a petrol tank the best way is to wash it out with washing up liquid then fill with water. If you want the perfect finish purge with argon and tig weld it but you do need a/c tig.

The yamaha kill switch costs about

Thanks for the replies. It sounds like they are all very much the same so i should just expect the wet feet thanks again. mercury

HI all i'm looking to buy a new pair of boots and was wondering what sort you lot wear and why cheers mercury

try this link http://www.cybermotorcycle.com/euro/brands/fantic_trials.htm

hi mate i think that you can still get parts for fantics through bill pye motorcycles in middlesborough, i will have a look for his phone number and address and let you know.

The best thing would be to use autosol and a lot of elbow grease.

Whilst your on this subject i am right in thinking that you can use a mixture of gear oil and dextron auto transmission oil, if so at what ratios. The reason i ask is that i get a lot of clutch drag. Cheers Mercury

Dont have a number for wes themselves but colin appleyard deals with them, so maybe worth a try contacting him.

Threads on most new bikes are metric course. If you measure the diameter of the threaded bit it will tell you the size of the bolt. I think the bolts to the mudguards are m5, i used stainless button heads no sharp edges to catch hope this helps. mercury

Thats great thanks very much but what size hammer?
