I just realised I’ve taken things slightly out of order according to the manual. I’ve mounted the piston on the conrod before sliding the cylinder over it. I think I should be right but if not I’ll have to take the piston back off and do it again.

Quick question – if the retaining clip gap is at 730 on the clock face is that ok? The starter slot is at about 430 and the manual says the gap should be at 12 or 6 but not sure how conservative they are.

Moto, I’ll post in the other thread mate

You guys are fast! TB was right about the clip type. I will probably need some circlip pliers for the water pump though.

Cheers for the help.

False alarm! The 1st one was a lot harder for me because I didn’t put the dowel insert in and it the clip was going past the retainer slot but with the 2nd one I just used the removal slot to get a start and then it went in easy!

Now to fiddle around with some cable ties to pull the rings in!

All things going well with my parts this week I’m keen for this ride if I’m welcome!

Merlot I’ll be coming down from newcastle but still go a similar way to the map TB posted if you want I can meet up with you on mandalong road. Its pretty easy to find though so don’t stress.

Dampen the steering movement. They’re simply a shock absorber for your handle bars so when you get on the sandy/rutted/bumpy terrain your bars are stabilised as the dampener absorbs the deflection somewhat.

I just got an email response from where I bought mine from and they’re out of mediums and don’t believe they’ll get any till mid-November!

Wow that’s quite a turn over – I wonder how they avoid paying duty on them?! Not sure what they’re paying but I’d guess that profit margins wouldn’t be fantastic though.

I run my gopro upside down under my V3 visor and find that its great there. Judging by the way the V3 parachutes at speed I’d say the visor sits higher than most helmets though. I’ve got a pic on my camera I’ll just have to find the memory card reader and I’ll post.

Really?! So they don’t have another medium in stock? I just looked on ebay again and 749 usd + 50-60 usd post looks to be it.

[TrentMember]

Diddel, good to see you made it on here mate. I don’t know if I haven’t had enough beers yet but I struggle to read your posts hahahha

I’d set a seperate alarm if you have one or wind it back and be sure to turn off the auto update or it’ll double it up.
