@dazzagtir I was experiencing simmilar things with my freshly rebutilt bike it seemed to be the throttle cable pulling slightly which threw all the other adjustments off check this as I tried hours on end and this sorted it

[dazzagtir]

Awesome, thanks Declan.

I will go and try that now.

[dazzagtir]

She needs a clean but she's now running great.
Spend some time re routing the throttle cable and adjusting the idle screw with less premix fuel.
Thanks everyone for your input and help.

@dazzagtir told you bud I spent days on mine because of my aftermarket throttle glad your enjoying it!

[dazzagtir]

Cheers Declan.
I just need to sort the electrixs out now, the last owner took it upon himself to remove the indictors and hide all the wires somewhere.
I don't like the idea of riding it on the road with no indicators as i'm sure the police will not take it lightly.

@dazzagtir It is not a legal requirement for bikes to have indicators. Provided there is no switch, or tape is over the switches, it eill pass an MOT.

[declan]

@Calum yeah a bike can pass mot with no lights or indicators but the the thing is it's either all electrics or none as far as I know

[castrolsniffer]

Yeah daytime mot, but then u gotta be home by dark

[Calum]

@castrolsniffer Uuhh what?

No just tape over the indicator buttons.

As said don't need indicators on bikes.

The other one is that Day Time MOT is no different from a full MOT. Same slip just in the notes it'll say no lights upon inspection. Literally no reason why you couldn't, although probably shouldn't, fit lights to it once it passes. And then don't have to be in at night.

[dazzagtir]

Ahhh thats very interesting to know, certainly put my mind to rest knowing I can actually take it out for a ride. I have been avoiding riding it as much as possible.
I have ordered some cheap £6 ebay indicators this evening so when they arrive I will fit them.
I will however put some tape over my switch tomorrow just incase I do get pulled over.

[Minia]

Indicators have never been a requirement, and I certainly don't have them on Enduro/Off-road bikes like the GasGas. Then it just becomes an inconvenience as the electrics add weight.

[declan]

@Minia not only that but the slightest of brushes and they commit suicide

[castrolsniffer]

Nice one guys,you learn something new every day as they say,I've always known it as a daytime mot haha turns out there's no such thing

[declan]

@castrolsniffer yep day time mot is just an easy way of saying no lights lol

[dazzagtir]

Ha, I love learning new stuff that will stick in the cranium for ever now.
Thank guys and girls.
