so my new bikes done 107 mile.

and theres a bloody screw stuck right in the back tyre!
the screw isnt that big, but i think its done some damage, looks like its gone all the way in, how deep are the treds all the way to the wheel?
what can i do?
the tyres are around £70 new so dont wona pay it if i dont have to.

also, i need to put a fuse in the powervalve (i will do it once the bikes run in) but some people say use a 15amp, and other says that will damage the CDI and electronics, so what amp fuse do i need?

any help will be great, Thanks.

good to hear, iv bought it second hand with 107 mile on the clock Razz

so after around 600 mile just after its first service, al put the power valve on and take the other restrictors out, did your mate fully de-restrict it?

if so, did he need to upjet?

Thanks.

i think there restricted in the exhaust in 2 places, the airbox, and the 15amp fuse.

so unless he takes all the washers etc.. out, the powervalve isnt gona do much!
