Cheers, is there something you have to open on the carb float bowl?

@jung Cheers for that! Alright I'll give 32-1 a bash. Wicked I'll have a go at de flooding it tomorrow, cheers

Shit pic but there it is! Can't get the fucker to start! It has a spark, looks like it's got a bit of fuel in it but maybe not enough to start.

What's a good petrol to oil ratio? I thought the guy I got it off said he was running 25/1... Had a look online and 32/1 pops up a lot but can't find a definitive answer, doesn't appear to be in the manual. Managed to get £380 3rd party only.... Just want to ride the fucking thing!!!

Cheers mate! Not got any XL I'm afraid, the large is quite a large large though.

In terms of abloy... This one? Looks like one of their cheapest but says ideal for motorbike chains.. http://www.abloypadlocks.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=Abloy-PL-321-Brass-Padlock-20mm-Shackle

Also was contemplating cementing a chain in to the floor, wondering if there's a benefit to using a ground anchor?

Both rear racks, not sure if the thompson has a plate missing too to be honest only had a quick look at it... hold on gonna edit in a description! (edit now done)

These too

Carbon finish saddle in good order came with a frame I bought

shimano 500 deraileur, not sure if it works, that's why it's free

Thompson seat post, at least one bolt missing

quick release rear rack, bolt missing

rear rack... was nice, has lost a leg

(god this is a sad collection)

Sora rear mech- this got torn off a frame pretty badly, might work, haven't got time to test it... free if you want it

Need these gone. Get em or the bin does.

Saddle off a raleigh sprint no idea why I've still got it

Half decent stem, bolts are rusty obviously, might be of use to someone! Don't know where it came from

Oury's. Barely used.

Strong V grips.... pretty knackered, some life left

How honest do you need to be when getting a quote? Just reading this back and it sounds stupid , obviously most things need to be spot on but my CBT instructor told me to say that my bike would be in a locked garage... I'm getting funny money quotes at the minute, CIA passed me over to two other companies they thought would help, cheapest they had was £1400

The bikes had the frame powder coated, wheels painted, new head light, indicators, swing arm chromed, few bits polished. Pretty sure this is driving the price up, bike still looks fairly standard, do I really need to mention it all?

(Got the husky by the way... bike is lovely, blokes who I bought it off seemed really sound as well, but I think the guy who he got it if flogged it to him cos the insurance was so expensive. Any ways to get the price down without compromising it? Cheers)

cheers!

Not as far as I'm aware, has been doing it whether externals connected or not

cheers

...Any reason not to just update to El Capitan?

cheers, will get some more RAM and do a reinstall then see how it is thanks a lot

Ok I'll def get more RAM, what sort of SSD, something like this? http://www.ebuyer.com/698050-crucial-mx200-250gb-msata-ssd-ct250mx200ssd3?gclid=Cj0KEQiAkIWzBRDK1ayo-Yjt38wBEiQAi7NnP-wXZdvMhgZpNw7gFHs3w3T8DhpoN2whnJexqBa0_-AaAngu8P8HAQ#fo_c=951&fo_k=b3c2a7346cccf9e2b1ade688dfdd9c95&fo_s=gplauk?mkwid=s2lEW1s4j_dc&pcrid=51482419619&pkw=&pmt=

My mac mini is soooo slow I can't handle it anymore.... takes ages to start up and then just slowly runs into the ground until I have to switch it off. I got it start of 2014, it's a 2.3 GHz intel core i7 version, I updated it's memory to 8 GB and moved all my files off onto external hardrives. Still slow! Before I buy a load more memory want to check it's not something else causing it...

Sounds amazing. Didn't understand half of it tbh but sounds nuts

Now!... haha... that's better than nothing mate! You about? sorry missed this last night

just done the CBT. gonna look at this bike tomorrow, if anyone fancies a tri.p to Chelmsford let me know! need a pair of decent eyes. Won't sue you if you say it's a goer and it turns out to be a lemon, honest.

...just found this manual, which is a later year but a more similar model that says piston change is every 5000 km... http://docs.wavenetworks.us/manuals//2011%20WRE-SMS%20125.pdf page 244

I'm thinking I'm gonna have to leave it reluctantly, the maintenance schedule on page 278 of this manual

http://www.husqvarnafactory.nl/pdf/2006/2006_OM_WR-CR_125.pdf

advises replacing the piston every 16 hours, could probs get away with every 20 hours but that still means every month tops, and that's £100 a go which is too much for me.

That manual is for the 2006 wr/cr 125 though... trying to find a similar maintenance schedule for the 2000 wre sm 125 (which is I think the model I've won on ebay) in this manual

http://docs.wavenetworks.us/manuals//2000%20WRE-SM%20125.pdf

if anyone knows any different let me know please, but if the maintenance bill is that much I can't do it

Cheers, yeah I'll give him a call tomorrow and sound it out a bit better. The guy saying 'don't know much about the bike' in the ad is a bit of a red flag in hind sight! Definitely going to give it a look, just need to get a mate who knows what they're looking at there as well. If it is a bag of shite I'll happily be a cunt and walk.
