What is this thing?!

I was reading through Craigfell's Rusty work Hoss thread earlier and I spotted something interesting in one of his photos. Basically it's a bit of small pipework under the tank, it jogged a memory so I looked at mine and found it had become disconnected on one end of the T-piece. I've attached his p...

Re: Front Sprocket Bolt Removal

Thank you very much for the replies nickst4 and andybaggies, I must admit I hadn't considered that lining up the chain would be so crucial as I naively assumed the sprockets would line up the same as the ones that came off.

Re: How to drain stale fuel?

Many thanks andybaggies for your detailed reply. I was overthinking the problem it seems - the simple solution of siphoning it out never even occurred to me :oops: a trip to Halfords it is then!

Re: Front Sprocket Bolt Removal

Hello Raptor Gods :) As part of my ongoing plan to get the "X" back on the road before the spring runs out I need to change the chain and sprockets on my bike. I'm reasonable mechanically sympathetic but have never done this job before. Is it something you think an enthusiastic amateur cou...

X-Rap Steering Damper For Sale

I don't really get on with the steering damper on my X-Rap so I took it off this weekend, thought I'd see if anyone here fancies buying it. There are a couple of caveats though as it seems that the previous owner may have messed around with it a bit. 01.jpg Basically, it looks like the clamps around...
