    @Calum B&Q do an O ring kit which has several sizes and always comes in handy for such emergencies;

    @NINJA It's not an O-ring. It's the actual nitrite seal on the shaft.

        @NINJA Yeah well don't!

        To be fair, you have this engine you should have known....

        It's annoying, I know I've ordered it, just can't think what I've done with it!

            @NINJA Sorry, I was only messing bud. I don't know what I'm doing half the time.

            I went to start the bike and the horn went off lol. I accidently wired up the horn to the starter motor LMAO!

            I was mega confused as I don't understand why the horn needed these really beefed up cables lol.

                  @declan Sold the GoPro around the time I stripped the DT Lol. Wouldn't mind getting another one, but then again it's just painting a target for yourself. Often you feel more inclined to do less than legal things.

                  Also thanks. Once I got the horn and starter motor around the right way, bike fired up no problems. Was amazed really!

                                        @NINJA Yeah still being gentle. I don't have anything to really take a video. I've got a 12" tablet and that's it.

                                        Rides lovely, I can't wait for the warm weather next year. Hoping to rack up some miles on it for sure!

                                          @NINJA Yeah still being gentle. I don't have anything to really take a video. I've got a 12" tablet and that's it.

                                          @Calum You should take her out a few times over the next 6-7 months when the weather is good and break her in properly, so come next spring she'll be raring to go for max RPM. 😉
