Re: Odd Running

Firstly, the restrictors are definately staying in... I will balance the carbs ASAP, hopefully that will make it a little better.... As for the "get a smaller bike", I already thought about a 250, but I'm too big :P I've had my fun on smaller bikes though... I owned a slightly tuned TZR125...

Re: Odd Running

No, I have to legally have restrictors in due to being under 21 and passed my bike test less than 2 years ago... And its not checked on an MOT...

Re: Odd Running

The restrictors arent as bad as everyone makes out... TBH, its just like riding with a throttle that you only open to half... The smaller intake hole causes less vacuum to be created, so the carbs never open fully.... It does make it run a bit richer though...at least it seems too :S 35mpg from it w...

Odd Running

Hello people. My bike is sadly (because I'm under 21) restricted to 33bhp... Its not too bad though....just no power past 6.5k rpm :S It runs nicely between 4k rpm and 7k rpm at which point the restrictors really kick in... Now, the problem is, under 4k rpm :S If the bike has been kept between 4 and...

Re: Side Light

Dont know if it will help anyone, but here is a link with circuit diagram. http://www.qrp.pops.net/LEDs.asp 10 and 6 LED chasers....

Re: Just about had enough of other forums..............

I have to agree with you Mellis... Already this has turned out to be the best forum I am registered on :) The only other one I am on is OK, but its covers a selection of different bikes... So you get the people who even though they never owned you model of bike, they think they know everything about...

Re: CCT's (Sorry...)

Hope it didnt cost too much to fix it :S...

I was thinking, when I fit them, that if it has a slight rattle just to tighten the tensioners very slightly...

I dare say everything will be good :)

Thanks for the input everyone.
