  1. boil your pads in water, in a pan. oil floats to top of water, done it on loads of pads, alough it does depend one the type of oil, also fiddle on with the grud screw on the lever, you can get a lot more feel out of that screw not nessiarly more power but it feels like it, as it locks on quicker. :S
  2. i can do 38 on a good day but my backwheeling consistency sucks, i might be able to do it 10 out of 10 one day next day not at all. :S"
  3. first one and go down to the second one, alough it depends how big the gap is and what gear your in, an easier gear will mean you are pushin furtur (sp) down

    Saracen Mad

  18. its ok, it looks ok, just it dosnt look any thing special, i do like the double free wheel though (Y)
  19. ive found when liking younger girls i could live with it its just my mates, one of my mates she is 16 just turned it any way and is meeting a 22 year old, they both get on good. so i would say as long as she acts and looks her age i would go for her, you two seem to have a lot in common motor and bike trials. so it looks like you two would make a good couple. just let nature takes it course, and see what happens, and have talks to your mates about it. (Y) gud luck mate :P
  20. well there will be oil and petrol mix in a piston in a 2 stroke, becasue that is where it gets its lubrication from, when i took my engine apart the piston was brown where oil had been passing through from the gear box when the crank seals were shagged. (Y)

    Frame Advice

    planet-x alibongo 1055 ish if your forks arent bent. 399 from planet x but worth every penny.
  22. drill a hole in it very little one, and thread an easy out in to it, the ones i have have an left thread to you can tap them in tightly then turn the other bolt and it will loosen other than that drill it out and tap it. :unsure:
  23. this is what jim snell (top dog for gas gas) says about water in a engine, i know its not maguras but.... . When first trying to see if the engine will start, kick the engine over SLOWLY and without much pressure on the kickstart. If the engine has swallowed a lot of water and the combustion chamber is filled, kicking the engine hard can cause hydraulic lock (water is not compressible) and bend the connecting rod.
  24. looks like a 99 txt isnt it corish. did you enter comps on it. bet it ripped your arms off did it lol :unsure:"
