Separate names with a comma.
I used to be very sceptical about this but last year when fitting the brakes to the Pantah I couldn't get a firm lever on the front brake for love...
Remember that the 900ss has a speedo drive from the front wheel which the 749 doesn't. Although you may not need this on your project bike.
Unless the bushes are worn there shouldn't be any weight against lip of the seal.
I repainted a Showa spring from a 900SS with yellow smooth Hammerite with amazing success.
The calliper most likely has a sticky piston and a good clean should free it off. Unbolt the calliper but keep the hydraulics connected, remove...
I used an Eezibleed for years for bleeding car brakes and adapted an old reservoir cap to fit on the master cylinders of my bevels. It worked...
I'd also suggest a rear shock upgrade. The rear shock is hard as hell although actually works better 2 up. The Desert Sled has a 21" front wheel...
Is the bulb in the right way round? I seem to remember that on these bikes it's possible to fit it 180ยบ out.
If that is the cause I'd very happy it was nothing more serious. 80 miles the wrong way round won't bother the tyre.
If there is a fault the electronics will just turn the DTC again
Good point Martin. It will interesting to find out.
Yes, mine broke in the pigtail from the main loom to the connector at the bottom yoke
The DTC uses the ABS sensors. If it loses the signal to one of the sensors it will turn off the DTC and ABS and flag an error. I'd have thought...
Yes but hygroscopy is the absorption of water by a natural attraction to it. We were talking about air dissolving in brake fluid. It's all down to...
I reckon that under pressure the air dissolves in the brake fluid, just like CO2 dissolves in water under pressure. This gives a temporary fix but...
PM sent.
Yes, I realised that. On first start up it will provide some lubrication until the oil pressure builds up.
If the battery has been unused for 2 years it will definitely need replaced.
If there is an alarm or tracker they would drain the battery but not overnight. It is most likely the battery. Fully charge it and measure the...
Well at least it is charging. I'd be dubious about the battery though.
