Need to get out on it more, been busy with base for new shed/workshop[image: RIliuG4.jpg]

@ninja lol it’s not stealing if they don’t ask for it back

@calum yep thats the one

@finnerz89 Dum, Dum Dum Dum Dee Dum Dum :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

@calum link text

I use a angle grinder in the garage, takes a few seconds

@darty not really within my budget. Getting a non runner as a project could be some fun though. And then run it until it blows

@2stroketerry I’m not legal but my quotes say 700 for an rs it was around 2k

@liquid-snake Thanks again

@irongamer727 I have an e firestorm

@2stroketerry Now that's insane!!!

yes mate

A drift for wheelbearings, I make a homemade press for the linkage bearings with a threaded rod, washers and nuts. I once removed a bearing using bread aswell (go youtube it) just to try it :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@mightyman yeah I heard they use a fair bit of oil

@irongamer727 The NSR simply is not as high as spec as the Aprilia is, it frails in comparison. Now a Honda RS 125 I definitely would love to hand. Shame I don't have 10K lying about the place. They run their powervalve off the gearbox I believe. [image: Ur3vD1320935073.jpg]

Unless the bike has had an insurance claim made on it, it wont be on the insurance catagoration register. It will however be marked as stolen on pnc if its been reported to the police as stolen and you dont tell them you have got it back. If you dont tell them soon as you tax it dvla will tell them as stolen bike has been taxed. What were you doing buying your own bike back anyway ? You should have went to see it, checked the frame number, walked away and rang the bizzyz and they would have got it back for free and removed the stolen marker from the pnc.

@scrimsmustang The other thing is, there is no guarantee it wouldn't need work. And then there goes your profit margin. I've yet to see a rotax engine that hasn't suffered damage...

@irongamer727 Personally if it's that bad, then it's likely the rings will be gummed up. In which case I'd rather strip the top end, clean, inspect and renew anything that needs doing. For the sake of a £10 Athena head gasket.
