Another "My bikes got a problem" Thread

**EJK** · 16th March 2008, 16:55

1) Yeah, well i can mend the leaking tank. Brake lever? I think I bent and broke that when I binned it at Kawakawa

2) Battry wasn't like that. Well I think the Colemans did not charge it that day...

3) COLEMANS!

4) I found a spark plug in my car. I don't know if its for the bike. Well, Colemans report says they've got a better ignition starting system. Maybe from a different model bike?

Btw, I don't know how to say thank you... I'm really (to be honest) shocked about all the help that I'm getting. I mean I feel guilty

Where's the bike, mate? My girlfriend's turning 21 this weekend, but I'll do my level best to get there -- you're an absolute champ, I remember when my bike blew up outside your old work and you wanted to drop me and the bike from Takapuna to Mangere Bridge. Not sure how much help I'd be but maybe an extra hand could be useful

Frosty, let me know day and time and I'll try to get there.

Don't know much, but keen to learn and it can't hurt to have an extra set of hands.

3) Oil is waaay overfull
4) starter motor sounds like it wants to jump outa the side of the engine

1. Might need sealing up at the rear where it meets the seat, that piece has some kneed-it on it at the moment

2: I've charged it before, if its flat now then its probably shot or it aint charging

3. Petrol mixed with oil by any chance? (wouldnt surprise me)

4. Yer, starter clutch fucked? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=145487800 if the s-motors had it too might be the way to go

Can't come this Saturday, my Manager called to work

P.S. I'd like the bike to be fixed by 20th April. It must be done by that time in fact... lol

Hey the bikes sitting here people --workshops open all day till 5.00pm
Ohh I figured out one "mystery" --the airbox was filling up from the gas leaking out of the back of the tank .
