  1. when you say sealant do you mean instant gasket?
  2. hi all.i took off both side casings on my cg125 to clean up and respray.i was poking around at the oil seal where kickstart goes and a spring like ring came off it.so i guess i have to replace it.before i make a balls up is there a certain way i have to take off and put on these seals?
  3. thanks old.thats it.now i feel real stupid.i was thinking full down was choke on
  4. hi all.i bought a stolen recovered 99 honda cg125.i put an ignition on it and it starts.thing is it will only idle at half choke.take choke off and it will die.even if i turn idle screw way up[reving high]it will still die with choke off.sounds like blocked pilot jet or air leak right?ive had carb off 4-5 times cleaned,replaced o rings,replaced pilot jet with another i had,sprayed around boots with carb cleaner to check for leaks[nothing]air filter is in good nick and well sealed.ive tried turning air/fuel mixture screw but it makes no difference as it wont idle without choke.it is set now at 2 turns out.im starting to think this bike was'nt stolen at all.anyone got any other suggestions?o im going to swap needle with an old one i have but im not confident as the needle on it looks ok.

    if its a 4 stroke the valve clearance close's up on these wee chinese bikes often.check your clearance
  6. my 95 gpx250 will start and idle no problem when cold but take it for a 5-10 mins run i have to work at the throttle to keep it running at traffic lights ect.then when i stop it,its hard to start it again.turns over for a good while until it starts.whats the first thing i should look at?valve clearance?carb?any ideas?
  7. ended up being corrosion at the switch.bit off a clean and wd40 and it works ok now.as always i had been through everything else and had everything apart before i got to the switch.why is it always the last thing you look at?anyway im just glad its sorted.thanks again folks.
  8. putting a wee suzuki gs 125 together and cant get the lights to work properly.all lights work its only when i put the headlight on it cuts out the tail and side/dash lights.been switching wires around but cant figure it out.any ideas?
  9. poundland is selling a litre of anti-freeze & coolant for £1.is it ok to use??
  10. thanks folks.i put a flat head screwdriver between the pads and disc and taped it with a hammer.got it freed enough to push.wrecked the pads but they were probably f**ked anyway.
  11. i have to push the bike a good distance to get it to the van.[too far to lift]
  12. hi folks.im moving house and want to take an old gpx250 i have out the back with me to fix up over the winter.problem is the front wheel is jamed tight and i cant push it.ive tried to take off the caliper but rung both bolt heads,there siezed too.is there anyway i can free it up without taking the caliper off,so i can push it for now.once i get it to the new house i will strip it down.
  13. fuse holder looks fine also the wires and connections from the kill switch look fine.not sure how to check them with multimeter but the bike only cuts out for a split second so would be hard to dected.i have since flushed out tank and cleaned petcock filter,went round all connections with wd40.the one to the cdi seemed a bit loose so was hoping that was it.was away for a week.came back yesterday.took bike out today and done 40ish miles and engine cut out.brought it to a stop and tried starting it again.BANG.big backfire.tried again and it started no prob and has run well the rest of the day.this is doing my head in.any more ideas??????
  14. its electronic.been using the bike last few days and it has only stoped once and that was after 60 mile,it started up straight away and no backfire.it only backfired the once.been thinking maybe there's a bit of crap in the tank stopping fuel getting through as it can go for 60 mile one time and 1/2 next.i'll flush out tank and see what happens
  15. i reset the valve clearance.they wer'nt that much out.tell me anything but the cdi thoese are expensive
