  5. The boy came home last night complaining his ped keeps dying. He had been for a long ride to Tavistock and back and run out of fuel during the trip. It’s done 15,000 km and has only had oil changes whenever I do one of my bikes as there is always enough left over to do his ped. So the oil is always pretty clean. Apart from the first service I don’t think it has been touched otherwise. Anyway it was really difficult to start and wouldn’t tick over. Not an ideal situation in a twist and go. First thing I did was check the valves which were tight. Less than 0.005 mm when they should be between 0.010 - 0.015 mm I set them loose on the max measurement. It started fine then but would still not tick over. No idle screw that I could find (fuel injected ped) so I adjusted the cable to raise the idle enough so that it wouldn’t stall. All seems good now. Rideable at least so he can get to work. I’ve put a shot of Redex injection cleaner in the tank and will do it a few more times when he fills the thing. I have ordered a service kit for it which fuzz nuts will be paying me back for also I think it will need a new drive belt in the near future so I will look into that as well. Learning stuff about peds I never wanted to but if it keeps my useless boy in employment it sort of makes sense.

  6. It could be glazing in the throttle body, some Wynn's injector cleaner will clean that off.

  7. Couldn't find one but will check again when I service it. Priority was getting the thing rideable today so Fuzz Nuts can get to work.

  11. Just heard back from the guy who is doing my valve check. All well within spec and reckons they have probably been checked before so that is good news. Something less to worry about

  24. The inventor Arthur Davidson, of the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Corporation, died and went to heaven. At the gates, St. Peter told Arthur, "Since you've been such a good man and your Motorcycles have changed the world, your reward is, you can hang out with anyone you want in Heaven." Arthur thought about it for a minute and then said, "I want to hang out with God." St. Peter took Arthur to the Throne Room, and introduced him to God. Arthur then asked God, "Hey, aren't you the inventor of women? "God said, "Ah, yes. " "Well, " said Arthur, "professional to professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention." God was somewhat taken back, and when He asked what the flaws might be, Arthur Davidson produced a list for Him to read. 1. There's too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusions. 2. It chatters constantly at high speeds. 3. Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much. 4. The intake is placed way to close to the exhaust and finally, 5. The maintenance costs are outrageous. "Hmmmm, you may have some good points there and it may be true that My invention is flawed... " God said to Arthur. "But the last time that I checked, more men are riding My invention than yours."

  32. I headed down to Newport now to go and have a gander at Wildcat Scooters. It was a fail as it wasn't open ........... As it was so hot now it was time for some refreshment , so I stopped at a pub in Caldicot ........... I then had a brief look at Caldicot castle................. I needed to fill up twice during the ride so it's probably a little bit thirsty (aren't all 2-strokes) and don't even ask about the faff with the pre-mix oil but all things considered this is a great little summer ride pop pop

  34. I saw a few of Fred's girlfriends, it is lambing season to if Fred had been here he would have gone full nonce. I then headed to Talla Reservoir, as usual the scenery was okay. Going off the side of the road would give you a bad day here. I eventually rejoined the main road and headed back to Edinburgh.
