It went in for probably its first ever service today Rolling Eyes (old users were probably useless)

I'm getting a complete electrics overhaul, and just a general service, it will probably cost a lot. Rolling Eyes

But the weather is nice now and I want to go on a ride! Crying or Very sad

I am lending my TW125 to my Mum this weekend, to do the first couple days of her DAS on, I hope it rains, and hails.
Because I will miss riding it.
And it means I have to go to halfords after work tonight to pick up some tools, in rush hour traffic, as opposed to a nice ride in at the weekend, I will miss it :<
But at least you will get yours back after a service, working better, in theory.
Mine will return having been abused, by a biker newbie, who weighs a whole lot more than it is used to :<
Poor bike.

Well I have got it back now!

Engine runs a lot smoother, the bike actually Idles at cold now.

I had a new brake light, connectors fitted and the eletric starter was fixed.

Problems: - It wouldn't pass an MOT... I need 2 new tyres and a new Rear brake shoes.

My bikes gonna be off the road for weeks or even months, currently finding out if my dad can get some aluminium rods, so he can weld the crankcase up, or if i can get a s/h engine to nick one off, then theres stripping down the engine, fitting the crankcase and rebuilding it with new gaskets/seals Crying or Very sad .
