Re: Scootrs outboard disc EBC pads?

Re: clutch slip again

^ good idea, that, as in the last two days there has been a bit of a shudder when riding the bike at less than hooligan behaviour. The last time this happened the rivets on the spider had worked loose. I had that welded, though, so I doubt it's the spider.

Re: GT big block experiance

How can Shell call that shite fuel saver? If it has a higher ethanol content then cars will get worse fuel economy and use more fuel. The oil companies like that. In the USA I experienced 10% worse fuel economy when running E10 compared to running non-ethanol gasoline in my '89 Honda Civic. I only r...

Re: clutch slip again

Have you tried Adige carbon mesh plates? They are very new and I know nothing about them, but Dean Suinn in LA once had Barnett make some carbon Lambretta clutch plates which didn't slip but turned out to be too grabby. http://www.mitolambretta.com/product_info.php?cPath=39&products_id=232 I'm i...

Re: New Rear Shock from Readspeed

Guys, Asia is a big place, err, continent. It includes places like Japan, whence come excellent products, and places with lower technology / much cheaper labour rates, and places in between. Most of Russia is in Asia. I don't hear many scooterists saying that the connecting rod in their Lambretta's ...

Re: PM Tuning headlamp?

Do you mean just the plastic bulb holder is discoloured? Did it affect the reflector or the lens?

Re: Any ts1 tips please

My old TS1 200 is now a 230 at 71 mm bore. Once this has worn out I should have saved enough for a Super Monza.

Re: LED rear light conversions

I have Lofty's prototype in my GP200 and it was bright and freed up enough power to run a 50 watt halogen bulb. I'm going to convert the street racer to a BGM board someday. They I'll run a brighter headlamp on that, too. Halogen bulbs use a filament, they're just filled with halogen gas, the focus ...

Re: Nissin disc brake caliper - whats it off?
