Sir Fallsalot

Just go to a bike shop and tell them you want spark plugs for whatever bike you got they will do the rest. If they offer you a choice just tell them whatever comes in there as standard. Or if you look in the maintenance section of a Haynes manual it will tell you what you want and you can order on line . This is what it says for one of my bikes you will want the standard one

Started to strip the 650 to fit a new cam chain tonight as all the parts i needed turned up today Had to strip the carb off to get the rocker cover off which was a right pain on this bike this is how it looks at the moment when i took the clutch cover off i noticed a bit of black plasticky stuff. Couldn't work out what it was at first or where it come from but after taking the cam chain out i could see wear on the crank case from the chain and then the horror dawned on me bloody cam chain guide is worn out and that bit of plastic was the side of it. To change it the head has to come off so new head gasket as well as the two chain guides This is the old chain and and the bit of cam chain guide i found floating about. The chain is totally fucked i'm lucky it hasn't snapped So now i have to sit and wait for more parts before i can rebuild it

Yup tis Rapeseed

Nice we have that shit Spanish weather here today so haven't done much. There's loads of abandoned shit around here but its either locked up good or if you did get in for a look around your bike would be missing when you came back out

I love the smell when riding past those fields

Everywhere i took them is fine on those bikes with some experience but to get that experience you have to just get out and ride. My 650 is about 30kg lighter than the T7 so no light weight either. If the younger guy had a more aggressive front tyre i bet he wouldn't have hit the deck half as much as he did.

So what your suggesting is he buy some and then try to cut his leg off to see how they perform because that's the only way you will know they work for sure

Yeh but he needs to get bread and milk i can cut wood closer

Forgot to say when i got home the police were in the middle of emptying a shit load of cannabis plants from a house up the road from me. Seen a lot of materials from cannabis growing dumped on the mountains this last month

About an 80 mile round trip

As the title suggests this is the same stuff I've posted over and over but today i was showing a couple of new guys to trail riding around not many photos i'm afraid. Started off by meeting in a layby near Barry which turned out to be notorious for dogging so much so they cut all the hedge rows and trees down so it was less concealed. what a fucking great place to meet 3 blokes I've never met before So when i arrived two are waiting i checks my phone and sees one has canceled due to the weather forecast being bad. I Introduces myself and has a chat to find out a bit about them, one bloke is about my age with some off road experience years ago but new to this bike and the other about 34 year old and only past his test 3 months ago but very keen, both on T7's their getting as common as the muck we'll be riding through today. I starts them off on a couple of lanes i know are tricky to see what i'm dealing with, first lane was a bit slow but ok, the second lane there's no sign of the youngster at the end so had to go back where i found him picking up the bike which turned out to be the second time. Third lane i decided to be a true general and lead from the rear and watch the carnage unfold. Fuck me the young lad clocked more time on his fairings then his tyres on this lane and dopey here buried his phone too deep to get any photos of it. Took these after what was about the fourth time he dropped the bike in the same lane I thought i'd get some video on this next lane which was easy at the start and finish but tricky in the middle. That's an old railway bridge in the photo and vid First off is the older bloke followed by the youngster you can see the difference in experience here Stops for a breather and a chat How can i describe this photo, two springer spaniels and a pug comes to mind lol From here it was up onto my local lanes on Eglwysilan mountain, that T7 sounds sweet And a rare vid with me in it Found something people don't usually dump there was about 14 plants in all After this the youngster bailed and headed home as he ditched the bike in a large puddle no damage but got a bit wet. the other lad was happy to carry on the next lanes were all gated which is a pain but gives me time to take a photo I shoots on ahead on the next lane to take some more video, heading into the Rhondda valleys here Stops for a chat on this one which is the golf course lane, where you ride right through the middle of it and end up with what should be familiar view on here now looking at the new bridge in Porth Last lane i have no photos of and no incidents other than the T7 rolling off the side stand when he was opening a gate, still amazed at how many don't put the bike in gear when pointing down hill no damage though. I'm impressed how much abuse the t7 took today with no damage other than scratches. The two lads were great company and will ride out with them again whether they want to ride with me is a different matter though

I've cleared two local ones this month already

I have the Husky 61 and a neat little battery one for stealth cutting

Strange thing is he doesn't own a chainsaw Bob

Yes and in the dark the first time i burnt some calories that night

I done the same after many years without them

Loads around Marshfield in Newport

I remember talking to a few mates years ago about chain saws when the one said to us what do you have chainsaws for neither of you have log burners and at exactly the same time we replied what the fuck has that got to do with it, some just don't get it

I bet they were Bob

Nice one Bob i haven't been out that way on the lanes myself for a while

Or you can just leave the rear wheel with a healthy coating of chain lube

Looking nice and green there now Pedro

I'm planning on a TRF ride Saturday. leading some big bikes about locally, A couple of them are beginners so might have to find a holster for my camera

That's why i said to follow the front brake light switch wires back to a connector and double up on which colour wire is live all the time, it's less complicated and your connecting to a fuse that is not critical to the running of the bike if the USB goes tits up and pops a fuse. Looking at the fuses on the diagram you put up there's only one i would use and that's fuse 5. (Signal) it shows a B/G wire whatever colour that is And just to confuse things the wire colour B/G also identifies as O/G on the wiring diagram that will be Suzuki for you

The only one i like there cost more than two of my bikes
