Re: Tyres

if it is heavy on the steering it could be possible to reduce the trail :idea:
either by moving the wheel back or steepen the headstock angle, running it in a wall isn't the best method :lol:

Re: TZ350 and the classic club

I agree Mike, there's nothing wrong with replicas. At least you know it's not rotten inside the tubes.

sell all your old bikes to Gatey and get Mike to build you a nice new one :D

Re: HELP ! Very little hair left...(Brakes)

you could try swapping the brake hoses for the front brakes onto the master cylinder for the rear, this might help to see if it is a fault on master cylinder or not

as Mike says, the master cylinder should not draw air even if the push rod is out of line

Re: HELP ! Very little hair left...(Brakes)

hi,

did you split the two halves of the callipers when you rebuilt them? the hole between the two halves is tiny and could have been blocked.

seem to remember the hole between the two halves being in a bit of a strange position

will strip a caliper tomorrow and have a look

will pm you my number ...

Re: HELP ! Very little hair left...(Brakes)

did you remove the callipers to get the bleed nipples at the highest point while bleeding them?

it does make a difference, did mine this year and no problems
