  1. Haha.... it is now, went through it all with a bit more rigour before i tried to ride it
  2. I found an ebay guy who had some a while back. Mine is just taped up for the moment. The bike is fully working, just not registered with the dvla.... cant be arsed with the paperwork to be honest. As soon as the weather is better ill try and get it done as i might be moving abroad soon. So watch this space and the bike will probably end up for sale on here to help me finish the reliant rialto i currently have on the drive too.
  3. Sweet, thatll be a nice job for next weekend on my day off between exercises in brecon, and a wife who is due to pop on the following wednesday... An excuse to live in the garage for a bit at least haha. Thanks for the help, hopefully i can sort it out.
  4. Atf? Im guessing thats something i can just mix myself with nail varnish remover? Or is it bought in a can? Cheers for the help buddy.
  5. Cool, not stripped the engine at all, as it was turning over i thought it would be ok. Had a quick look earlier and a lot of the bolts are completely seized, so slightly hesitant with it.
  6. That sounds like its the problem, from my crude detective work and only drawing on the haynes manual and my a-series engine knowledge, i thought that the engine basically wasnt sucking air in. How much of a nightmare would this be to fix?
  7. Not checked with a gauge as i dont have access to one, just from using my finger to plug it up there is a lot of pressure when cranked, obviously not as good as using the proper tool though. How much of a dip in compression would stop it starting all together, not even a splutter?
  8. Evening all, So, i have some issues with my little bike, i have trawled the internet and tried to sort it but haven't come close. The issue is my 2 stroke is not starting (suzuki gp100). Here is the list i have gone through; It has a spark, blue and strong (i think) and the plug is gapped correctly. Fuel is getting to the carb, and all the jets are clear, carb is working properly. Compression is fine, have had the head off and the piston and rings are good. No scoring on the cylinder etc. From what i can see, there doesnt seem to be much suction to draw fuel and air from the carb and into the engine. The timing is done via a nippon denser pid unit, the stator plate is mounted correctly with all the timing marks lined up so i dont think timing is an issue. My experience with 2 stroke engines is nil so any help is appreciated.
  9. Haha, sorry buddy. I do the same with most things. I get an idea and obsess about it until its done. The only thing holding me up is the bank holiday and the fact that most of the parts i need to get online. All the work has been done, totalling a cost of 163 quid, including the price of the bike. This is assuming i dont need any more bits that i havnt ordered already.
  10. So, last full on day with the bike, only little things to do now, so all is looking good! Only the rear lights, headlight and seat to go back on. Need to get some replacement bits like the regulator and a flasher unit and it should be there. I think the cdi unit for the ignition is ok but that might be difficult to replace. So the bits left to put on: http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg1_zpsruoeo0kc.jpg Only these few bolts etc that have multiplied and have no place! http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg2_zpsvputac46.jpg So here it is in its new glory: http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg3_zpseb2sscax.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg4_zpsifcogbvi.jpg So, as i said, just a few little bits to go now to get it road worthy, then just polishing and the small matter of a cbt and proper test. Cheers
  11. Thats to badger... Any idea how to sort timing etc up on it? Probably doesnt help that i dont have a flywheel puller to remove the flywheel.
  12. Another full day in the garage, now the engine is back on, rear brakes fixed. Throttle attatched, new choke and switch assembly fitted. Am having issues with the front disk brake, no pressure at all so will have to strip it. Fluid is coming through when i bleed it but the lever is still spongy. So pictures so far: http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg2_zpsoxw4pckk.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i432/philip-charlesworth/image.jpg1_zpsog6keobs.jpg Tomorrow ill try to get alot of the wiring back on, try and sort that now ive found my multimeter. I also inspected my magneto flywheel thing to look for the points, but none seen. Upon inspection of the haynes bible i found a page at the back whick talks about a different system fitted to the gp125 called n... D..., cant remember what the actual name was but there were no points on the schematic, so unsure how this works and how to adjust timing etc. Cheers all, more to follow tomorrow!
  13. Yea, its an idea. I had thought about old cusions too. Im wanting a deep red leather so should be able to find something, its quite a large seat though. Will have a good look in charity shops, cheers!
  14. Damn, i know how to do it, its just finding the right material
