Re: MOT EXEMPTION - for 40 year plus scooters
does this also apply for those with brand new autos that don't need an MOT for 3 years?

Re: Sip V2.0 speedo fuel warning light
the bit at the bottom that displays mileage etc actually says 'fuel' or 'fuel low' or something and flashes.. its a little bit subtle, especially in bright light but I normally find the numbness of my arse normally indicates when I should start keeping an eye of the fuel light :D sorry no pics though

Re: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggggggg!
they rae indeed a right pain.. agree with the above, fit the toolbox first. also fit and test the fuel tap as well as you don't want to keep getting it in/out. put the tank in and wiggle the rubbers in afterwards. you may have to do some adjustment of the rubbers either by cutting or sticking bits o...

Re: Advance and Retard ignition
my understanding is that the theory is different between 2 stroke and 4 strokes.. the basic theory is it takes time for the spark to ignite the fuel, so in order to allow time for the ignition to get going it makes sense to fire the spark before tdc so that the burn reaches its peak just at, or imme...

Re: hidden master cylinder questions
mine was a faff to set up and bleed but once done works very well.. I echo soulsurfers comments above, particularly regarding thick cable and a solid mount.. I drilled a small piece of steel rod that fitted through the S/C lever hole to locate the cable, and used a gear trunnion against the bottom o...

Re: That old chestnut of kitting a scoot and informing DVLA
if you did the work mark, could you not provide a sort of receipt? not sure what are the DVLA's criteria for documentation.. i suppose the problem is that if you put together a scooter from bits you had had for years, and the engine size was now different to what was on the v5, how do you provide a ...
