Re: Stubborn flywheel removal

Re: Carb setup

Carb/brake cleaner spray stinks something awful and I don't recommend using it in the kitchen. Also full of not very nice chemical compounds so avoid inhaling it and best wear latex gloves to avoid skin contact. Be methodical about dismantling the carbs, lay the bits out to keep track of them, use a...

Re: X3 tank Kanguro / Camel - got one at last

Got a tank after 10 months of patience, tank was a good price, unfortunately shipping to Australia costs nearly 3 x as much, but I'm happy, the extra fuel capacity will make the bike a bit more practical for some longer rides.
