  1. Ok mate I will give that a try, Thanks
  2. I have recently changed the oil in my evo gearbox. I have used putoline oil. the previous owner used automatic transmission fluid. the problem i have is when the engine is running i am having real trouble finding gears and most of all neutral. When the engine is turned off i can find all gears. any ideas, thanks.
  3. Its not a big job mate, took me 30 mins tops,There is a casing bolton the underside which means the plate has to be removed, when removing the last bolt on the plate just be careful as they can fly out and go missing ( as mine did )!!!
  4. Hi, I had the same problem with my rev3. I replaced the outer casing gasket (
  5. Hi Ive had a Dave cooper rack on my 54 plate Focus for the last four years. My bike not only sits well against my car but also doesnt obstruct the lights. I bought the towbar off the net and fitted it myself in a hour. I have the ball type. I regularly travel long distances with my bike and have never had any problems. hope this helps,
  6. As the othe two have said BVM are fantastic in my book. I recently needed a rear brake master cyclinder in a mad rush as I had pre entered a trial when mine went down. after a phone call on tuesday the goods duely arrived on wednesday, from stoude to sheffield, 30 mins work and i was up and running.....rode the trial and won it by miles ( well that bits a lie but hey ) top service and i will deffo use BVM again... cheers Leggins
  7. hi ive been thinking about buy ing myself a new beta. thats why i read this thread. Do I buy a 08 or wait for the 09 launch in november ? As Moulder points out is it going to be minimal changes from the previous years model ??? ( nice change of carb and about time on the 08) Ive been quoted
  8. He would have made it to the top if he had been on a BETA !!!!!!!
  9. Thanks for observing sunday pumpkin old man...Got to say including bizzare objects in your section was pure genius, drowned rabbits and lawn mowers take the biscuit
  10. Dougie pumpkin is quite right good tuition comes at a price. I taught Mr Pumpkin all he knows ( over the bars, wheelies on steep inclines etc ) and come to think of it he never did pay.... is this why he missed my name from his list of tutors
  11. He has checked the fly wheel and alls well there. As for the piston ring theory well that was my first thought. I will have a word and pull the head off it....ahmm thanks to all for your advice, will keep you posted cheers Leggins
  12. A friends son has a 06 125 rev 3 which has developed a whizzing sound which seems to coming from the cyclinder / flywheel area. initally the bike lost power. He was advised to clean out the exhaust and repack the can which he did to some success as the bike regained some power but did develop this whizzing sound. any ideas......thanks Leggins
  13. hey up gizza I will be waiting for you on section 13 as usual mate......cheers Leggins
  14. Cheers Timp I will be at Edonsfield on the 27th Dec . its a shame that land will be lost. I first rode there in 70,s . merry christmas Leggins
  15. This Sundays trial at Ughill near Bradfield has got to be one of the best trials around. With 20 challenging sections on some of Yorkshires best land . James Dabill was last years winner on a rain sodden day. Who will take this years honours is anyones guess it could be Dougie Pumpkin or even Leggins . This is a not to be missed trial so get to Ughill Sunday(16th Dec) you wont regret it.

  18. OH MY GOD DOUGIE THE SPANNER PUMPKIN YOUR A STAR KID
  19. I don't ride like anyone.... I am a very unique rider, in fact special, yes special needs Thanks Addict for the list, i have some spares but not all. Wiil ask our lass for a tampax, might need the full box tho oh my god dougie just read this ,,You are givin me loads of ammo here matey keep it up.......
  20. Dont listen to the pumpkin mate he,s really got a gasser haaaaaaaaaa. anyway sounds like jets could have some dirt in them . Pull the carb off and give it a good clean ( something else pumpkin would like ...Im on fire ) also if fuel is old replace with fresh , a clean air filter wouldnt go a miss. try the basics first and if you dont have any luck ask someone else One thing is for sure. I would NEVER have a LARD GAS... If the bke has been lie this ever since having the mod done, i would put money on it being the float hight been over adjusted by the dealer and starving te engine of fuel. I did the same when i did the mod on my bike that is now your bike. takes to mins to fix ...but saying all that the bike did fire back up once fuel got back through... Oh and by the way , who is the chap that wanted to strip his bike down in to a thousand bits ?? Only for the Pumpkin to ask if he had actually put any fuel in his bike.. His name is the one and only dopey LEGGINS Doh !!! I was just doing my bit for the planet carbon footprint n all that......

  22. Whats up mate dont you trust me ? Had a word with The Mexican and he said its a job for the large angle grinder and medium hammer....Im on my way over
  23. Yep, checked and all is fine with those bits .. No i haven't noticed anything odd, the bike seems to feel like it always has done apart from this knock. i have not checked the engine mounting bolts, i will, but very much doubt it is that, it feels to be from the top end, but saying all that, what do i know, nowt , that is !! Could be that spare set of car keys your lass tie wrapped behind your number board knocking..... couldnt resist it mate
