the paint on my frame was coming away when i bought it in rough shape so i just scraped away the crappy flakey paint and coated with hammerite smooth to protect from the evil tin worm,
when it comes to the rebuild i will probably be using pj1 fastblack epoxy paint as i have heard good reviews on it if you choose this to patch areas then make sure you use rust remover or kurust otherwise it will flake off again

£40 better spent on fuel - i ride like a fool and give my chain evil abuse and have never found extra heavy duty any different for a lightweight 600 - my 1100 heavy bike is a different matter though http://www.didchain.com/streetChains.htmljust look at max hp and lets be honest - we aint riding supersport 600's

well OCT 554N must have been crushed as its details are no longer available with dvla -would have gone picture hunting in the allegro owners club archives if it was still on the road

anyone near southampton willing to go give him a hand and switch sprocket covers for an hour or two to see if it helps (if the problem disappears or swaps bikes then you know the problem is that) ive checked out the member map and there are few around - but if they read this its a different matter

i think fazer rider is on too something here in the actuator is a ball which could be worn also the actuator rod/push rod could be worn 33k isnt a lot but this depends on its life, as a commutor bike in a city will use its clutch 1000's if not millions of times more than someone living in the middle of nowhere and can easy do 20 miles without touching the clutch i wouldnt normally jump to a conclusion like this but im lost otherwise

aah the old rubber oil seals have turned into plastic problem thank god for the A series easy pull apart ability (cant count how many we have rebuilt) just done same thing to pug 205 rallye, exact same problem with hardened valve stem seals we found running stop leak can sometimes rejuvinate the rubber if not to far gone but not the best solution classic engines easy - have flat out refused to do my mates bmw head gasket, to much work to be fun

problem with universal o rings is that some degrade very quickly - i think its silicone content that does it this problem has bit me in the arse twice 1st time replacing fuel tap o ring and it didnt last long (just grabbed some rings from a box meant for water taps) 2nd time was when i bought my girl at the time a little 125 and the previous owner replaced all the hoses with silicone hoses which looked great in blue untill a week before her test the bike decided to spit all its fuel across my garage (thank god it was summer and the central heating boiler hadnt come on during the night, one turn of a hot tap would have caused an explosion)

we still have one or two up my way that allow you to go a wandering (couple of years since last been) but i did know the lads who worked there so that might have helped me in that respect -there is nothing like being covered in grease and stopping for a brew and a fag sitting in the back of a limo (im not joking this really happened)
i have never seen anything in the uk for bikes im guessing you mean like in grease 2 (in infamous breakers yard) it still happens in america where land is cheap but over here bike breakers have to work differently part H+S and part high overheads that need covered - i think berties bike breakers in chorley you can have a walk around and see what is waiting to be broken up. best bet is just find one near by and go have a look what they have in

when it comes to mic adaptors and even mics its better to just go and buy the official one for the job i have bought countless mics for my Drift often to disapointment and if i tally it all up i have spent much much more than the official drift mic Matt on ' the workshop' channel is having problems with his gopro mic setup at the moment

it is seriously easy to lob it off, about 10 secs with angle grinder then spray inside hole with loads of paint give it a swirl to coat everything then it wont rust from inside as much (you will swap it out long before it will rust to oblivion though)
i had to bend mine up up a bit to stop it fowling the dominator headlights i had on at the time once again no big problem (whack with big hammer)

you may find that you need more wiring as you are going from a stationary headlight system to one that moves
i had to rewire my front end for the new clocks system anyhow but im sure it all started for the moving headlights - not a difficult job just a little time consuming with soldering iron and heat shrink
the cage needs chopped down as it holds your clock but gets in the way of a naked headlight conversion you will see what needs chopped when you get in there (will be bent to buggery after crash anyhow)

that looks like a good size piece of kit - easily hidden aswell - im not looking into trackers just yet untill the fighter build is underway - one of the big problems with them is the other half can track you at all times which might not be a good thing.
But aren't you in your garage (at home) most of the time anyway, recording reviews and build videos, for your Utube channel? I'm the FOCCER whose been recently commenting on a few of your Vids. Great stuff mate, excellent content.
currently making a security related video on an unbeatable alarm system - its so good even i cant disarm it with my keyfob so the last couple of days yes i have been at home totally traceable.

i would choose depending on locationDown London - Disc lock, harder to cut than anything else out there (wankers more likely to cut the bike next to you with a chain)Rural Home / council estate - Chain to something Solid, (more likely to be a van theft - as you would hear a grinder in use)if you have the money there is also the tracking option - but we have fazers so prob not worth the cost(£179 + Fitting +£100 per year subscription for a datatool = but i have heard off some interesting alternatives in the pipeline)im not a fan of U-locks as they are solid linked so easier to cut (bar is easier to cut than moving chain) and hard to carrya big and bulky chain can be worn like rambos bulletbelt and disc locks can fit in a pocketUNDER NO EXCEPTION GET A THROTTLE LOCK THEY ARE USELESS

with the exhaust off it can be removed with engine in frame order a new sump gasket, oil and filter
despite your best efforts to drain the oil you will still have some sitting in the sump so get lots of cardboard and rags to catch the oil i also use a big roasting dish to catch anything that drops which would be in a good idea in your case as you will want to be looking at that oil to see if there are any shiney mettalic bits in there

remember that sva/msva is very different from MOT and is constantly changing from what i read in kit car magazine (i know car but its still vosa)
