Hi any bikers out there in Lancashire ? Obviously can’t meet up yet but no harm in planning and trying to be positive.


Stay safe ?

I was going to change pads and fluid and line after my MOT in April - after the MOT in case I potatoed the caliper. I now have anextra 6 months so am doing now.  I have read the various posts and advice but thought I would start my own as I have a few questions.I will be using a hel line and on the website it mentions black stealth heat shrink on the ends as an option. I actually think it looks a bit messy and my new line will be clear stainless steel but on the rear is there any reason to have the "stealth heat shrink.

• what is peoples opinion on hel stainless steel bleed nipples and what size do I need.
  
• Will 500ml of fluid be enough to do the job - even if I have to struggle with bleeding.
  
• What fluid to get - any make better than other.
  
• Pads SBS ceramic I see have been mentioned. I don't want anything too sharp on the rear
  
• seals webmoto Ebay or fowlers.I read it can be hit and miss with pattern ones but is that still the case.

Hi All,
I thought as we've all got a bit of down time at the moment, i would take a pause and introduce myself, I'm Ben im a little new to this wonderful world of 2 wheels, after years of saying i'll do my test i finally did it the day before my 30th birthday! since then i bought a X reg FZS600 and i love it! it has a little battle damage from the privious owner (icy road) but mechanically its fine and the damage im sure i will get round to sorting when the right parts come up. the bike had already had the fairing removed and had different dog bones in to lower the bike. ive since raised it back to standard as i didnt like how upright the bike sat on its side stand, the handle bard had to get change as the ones on it was very tall and narrow so some renthel flat bars now sit lovley on the yokes. I also didnt like the rear end so i made my own tail tidy to sort that out. i have a few more plans but for now im just going to get used to it and build my confidence on the road. thanks for reading i will attempt to get a few pics on, if anyone could guide me as i have tried a few times and nothing seems to work at the moment!

Hi guys ive got the cylinder head back from the engineers and while its off i want to completely strip it and clean up valves ect. Ive started removing the valves and ideally replace all the valve stem seals. How i remove these?? do they just push back out from the cylinder side?? do they even come out at all?? I would greatly appreciate any feedback/advise...Thanks Gaz
