    Well the reason it was so gutless is it's still bloody running on one cylinder! Thought the mechanic fixed it but when I tried starting her today I heard the familiar struggle to start a dead cylinder! Fuck, the mechanic and I will have words tomorrow! Along the line of..take her back and fix her like you said you would!

    I love my bike to bits and really want her running perfectly, henceforth drastic action must be taken. *bom bom*......results of said drastic action will be posted within two weeks.

    my mates NSR did that.

    never figured out what was wrong with it although a carb balance got it running on two for about a week before it ate its rings and a few other bits.

    school fields are the best for dirtbikes... the banks and lanscaping surounding them make for the best jumps, you get an audience pretty quick and the engine noise echoes back from buildings

    it's shame you can only do it for 5 minutes tops before heading back down the road, but it's a glorious 5 minutes
