Re: Check out the Targa Twin....

I would suspect that because Charlie can only run a maximum of 180 degrees exhaust timing(due to the 2 into one exhaust) the scoot needs to be longlegged to achieve high top speeds

Re: Help! Electrical issue - When i rev my headlight goes out!

Sort of related to Tonys theory is to check that you haven't trapped the yellow wire between the stator and the mag flange. This is easy to do and may also cause your problem

Re: Help! Electrical issue - When i rev my headlight goes out!

Tony could be right but thats easy to check by seeing if all your lights go out ie the back light as well.
Are you earthing the headlight through the lamp adjuster? If so run a seperate earth from the bulb holder itself to the headset body. Same place as the pink wire is earthed.

Re: 110 Yam Rod on a SIL 200

When I use packers with no gaskets I use 1104 gasket sealer. Very good for gasketless joins. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-BOND-THREE-BOND-GASKET-CEMENT-SEALER-includes-P-P_W0QQitemZ180315882965QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?hash=item180315882965&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C...

Re: Headset-Whadaya think

SX headset will actually improve your handling in that the handlebars are slightly lower than GP.... has the effect of putting some more weight on the front, which will help your handling when riding 'with spirit!' http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_z60o1WUe0PE/SGDIsghByHI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/ug5TEJrKsD0/s320/DSC_4...

Re: Dicounted Diablo Long Range Lambretta Tanks

Hopefully getting some sorted soon buddy.
Might see if I can get down soon and have a test ride on the 250 and if the tanks still need sorting.
