Need help

[Mightyman]

I'm very glad you got this sorted without the help of a garage. It would have been wasted money mate!

[terry.tz]

best part its one of them things were a garage won't have a clue can't imagine this being that common is it @Jens-Eskildsen

[Jens Eskildsen]

Mine were the same when i bought it. I chased it for weeks, leening out the whole carb before i looked at a parts fiche.
I knew right away what was wrong when i saw the missing washer.

I think its just easy to misplace that one.

[terry.tz]

@jens-eskildsen fare enough

Feels good to be riding again lol now I have another question how can I replace a steering lock

[terry.tz]

@vtrn_raptor drill it out and replace it there is a thread on here about it I think

[terry.tz]

my bad just been looking but can't imagine it being hard really just drill the core and mangle the pins pull the guts out and you should see how to take it out but there like £35 so I tried picking it but keyways just too small for me

[vtrn_raptor]

Okay I'll give it a go as don't really want a bike with no steering lock lol as where I live the bike theft rate is ridiculous

[terry.tz]

@vtrn_raptor that's why my bikes in the kitchen

[oldman]

Its not a genuine dt unless its been stolen at one time or another, thief magnets

[terry.tz]

@oldman mines clean still can't be many that haven't been stolen and recovered like the figures on that would be interesting

[declan]

@terry-tz can't imagine a bike in my kitchen could sit on it and drink my coffee

[terry.tz]

@declan hahahaha I do when I go, my sisters ride it into the dining room there and it's my seat

[declan]

@terry-tz hahaha that's next level man hate to slip the clutch and send it through the tv lol

[andrewj1680]

I have 2 in my kitchen and a cr500 in the bedroom

[terry.tz]

hahaha @andrewj1680 that's just how its meant to be I remember seeing bikes get built and kept in the house from as young as I can remember seen car be built in a house too but not ours

[terry.tz]

personally, I see it as a man should look after his tools and sometimes in the house is the best option

[oldman]

Shiny shiny tools............... drooool, can never have too many!

[declan]

@andrewj1680 if I owned a cr 500 I'd have it in bed with me making sure it's warm lol but serous question those things can't be light how do you get it up the stairs I couldn't imaging getting a pitbike up then never mind a beast

[Mightyman]

I wouldn't worry about a steering lock too much. Theives break them with little effort. In my opinion the best cheap theif deterrent is an alarmed disk lock. Nice and small to take around with you, but packing a loud enough siren to wake yourself / the neighbors up.
