  2. Excellent thanks for that info
  3. Where will I find the engine #. Looked but cannot find
  4. As this bike has been standing for years i'm going to change oils.On clutch side how much oil is needed and spec, also the same on the gearbox?
  5. I need some help on the front brake issue I have. Just bought the bike and the brake was not working. Does anyone have a photo/diagram as there seems to be a lot of travel on brake lever. Shoes look ok, This bike had not been rode for 5 years or more. I have ordered new shoes, cable and brake lever and perch. One more question. On checking the frame the number was: 51M1646 so am I right in saying it is a 1976?(Tank has signature of Malcolm Rathmell)

    Cota 348

    I'm thinking of buying a Malcolm Rathmell cota 348. Can someone tell me what dates they were made from and to? Also how good a bike they are for twin shock trials as I plan to do a few this year. Any tips on what to look for before buying?
  8. what colour should be on the bike. the colour on it is yellow. i'm 16 stone and the suspension is soft
  9. Does anybody know if there is a alternative to buying a genuine Scorpa rear brake disc, or are they common to other bikes?
  10. So I suppose practice makes perfect, just hope my old Knee's don't give up. Perhaps I could get a 2foot kickstart(only kidding) Thanks for your comments will let you know how i get on
  11. I need some info on starting techniques. Are there any tips to imrove starting ratio and reduce kicks and frustration? My Evo you only had to press on the kickstart and she was away. If my feet are on the floor I cannot get it started hot or cold. I have to put it on the stand or pitch next to a tree to give a big kick off the pegs. then it can be anything up to 6 kicks. Or is there anything else that can be done to aid my ability to get it started?
