hi paul

 

Michael has an emissions tester

 

but arnt you using standard induction? if so i would not worry to much, i would put some fuel system cleaner through the tank etc.

 

unfortunateley I fly to Cork next week so cannot make it next weekend, I will come over after work one night if it is any good?

Hi Paul

 

I would be Soooooooooooooooooooo happy to pop over and take the P*SS / I mean help out LOL

 

PM me your Number and post code if you are not at the mouse next week (can't remenber how to get to your's)

Just shout if you need anything.

I can get my hands on a 4 carb balancer if that is any good? but no emmisions tester I'm afraid.

to pass 1st time would be great as the £90 retest fee could be put to better use

Hi Nick

A mate had his Tiger Cat fail at Newcastle as a secondary fixing was needed through the top ball joint mount(the bit the cycle wing brackets are welded to),

the pinch bolt isnt considered enough. The tester showed him a picture of a failed unit.

see my pic attached, the second fixing(dome head allan bolt) is to the right of the pinch bolt.

Hope that helps

Cheers Paul

Or a roll-pin driven in;believe they are tougher in shear than a set-screw/bolt.

[Guest The Modfather]

I drilled a hole through the carrier into the top hat and put an M6 bolt and a nylok through.

[Guest Ian & Carole]

Posted this before but worth a second look..........

 

 

 

After this happened on the A1 services I have fitted two 3mm roll pins each side, as said stronger in sheer than a bolt.
