    Finally got my bike back! It's all good!

    Yep Boostin delivered the bike all the way to my cousin's place
    He fixed it and he did it!
    Also with assist from many other people, thank you all

    and more...

    But there are some few things that needs to be taken care of e.g. Battery and the tank.
    The tank needs to be replaced. It is still leaking. Well I can do that!
    For now, I gotta learn how to kick start the thing lol It's kinda hard...

    Well anyways, thank you all!

    Maaan... I'm too used to electric start! Maybe I should change my title to "Waaah!... Electric start??"

    I never realised that you have never had to kick start it before, should have given you a quick lesson.

    Hope you have it sorted...have you taken it for a spin up the road?

    Also forgot to tell you that it might need to be rejetted to get it running perfect. It seems ok at wide open throttle but a little iffy at part throttle.

    Arse it needs to be replaced. Araldite it Araldite is cheap and you will sure as heck use it again, go out and get some. Whip the tank off, araldite it. If you can't wait 24 hours for it to set, bung it in the oven for an hour and you will be all done! (make sure you leave the tank out to get all the fumes and junk out, don't wanna explode your oven )

    yeah lol Well still I think the tank is rusted inside. So it may be better to replace it before it pops open

    I've found the problem with the noise. Xerxes said its the intake noise. It's normally muffled by the airbox but since it's got a filter it'll scream like a 9 year old girl lol

    It's all good!

    Edit: Hmmm its leaking quite bad. I can literally (visually) see it leaking. Oh well I'll just take it to my house and leave it (not ride it) till I get a new tank
    Was it like this when you had the bike boostin?

    It was def leaking when I had it, but only just seaping out when the tank was half full. I only put a couple of liters of petrol in it just to get it to your place.

    well a couple might have been one.

    With regards to the tank, I had done as much as I could to fix it. Someone with more tank fixing abilities might be able to fix it up.
