Just went out for another look (can't help myself)
I see why there is no free play down at clutch lever.. Obviously it comes back as the clutch engages fully butthe small spring around the arm wasn't strong enough to pull the cable through to take up the slack,if I pushed the clutch hand lever ...

I did go to adjust the cable but it was already tight with hardly any play at the lever next to the clutch but it had about 2mm play at the lever on the bar.
But that video was perfect thanks,I went and tried hitting it into gear harder and you there was hardly any clunk

Hi,thought if just ask you guys this question about the bike even tho it's not a R1.. Going from neatral to 1st at a stand still is give me a clunk and bike moves ever so slightly and also from neutral to 2nd does it,going from 1st to 2nd at a standstill works fine.

Yeh I'll defo take my time with it.Cheers

ah ok ill not bother then, its on reserve just now so ill fill it up and add 200ml. yeh ill be changing oil and filter soon with some good quality oil. valave clearances might need done but ill just leave that just now i think

im from elgin in scotland

cheers for that ill get some ordered, he says carbs are perfect just now so that stuff will hopefully keep it that way, ive been reading that i should turn fuel off and run the bike till it cuts out to empty th carbs so i might go do that today.

yeh passat or the a4 tdi is a good car. what m3 do you have? i used to have the old e36 m3.. wish i never sold it now

nothing crazy looking and not the best off streetfighters, it was dropped and broke a fairing so he just changed it but stil has original ...

Thanks guys, I have my theory in 2 weeks then hopefully get my test booked straight after it

Hi,just thought I would say I ended up just buying a cbr900 streetfighter, I checked the facts and figures (125hp)and looks to be about the same as a modern r6 so hopefully this will be a bit better,I got it at a decent price so hopefully it will be fine.

Thanks for all the reply. I totally understand what you's are saying, I just though if I was just sensible I would be ok, I have not long sold my 530hp Silvia and although that car would easy do 180mph plus I bairly took it past 100 as I just used to enjoy cruising in it but I know the bike is ...
