Re: T-boned today

Re: Michelin tyres

Dave,
If you are having trouble getting the tyres off Have you tried breaking the bead using your car as a press?

Re: anyone have different mirrors?

I had a quick check this morning against the mirrors on the PCX and the thread is 10mm.
That said you can buy an adaptor insert that brings 8mm mirrors to fit 10mm holes. :)

Re: anyone have different mirrors?

:o Mirrors can come in Motorbike(10mm) and Scooter (8mm) sizes, it may pay to whip them off your PCX and check before you buy, and some do come with specific left and right threads as well - trust me that ratty runner I'm sorting is throwing all sorts of surprises at me. :) :o those second mirrors l...

Before messing my shoulder up on monday I managed to get her up and running :) - complete with vast white cloud for 15 minutes! o_O It still had 2 stroke in it when it was stored - it had all run into the carb and engine and had accumulated over the 4 years it was sat.

The engine is limited 9500 rpm max, the speed is limited worldwide to A1 Limit(62.54mph - 100 kmh) Whichever you hit first detemines the speed. If you go downhill on a decent road you hit the s...

Family car is currently a Vauxhall Zafira 2.0 DTi. Basically a mini bus/Van with "flex 7" fitted.
