Doremi are sorting it out with the factory and they have promised to send me a set for approval before I offer them for sale again. May ...

7K miles is pretty good for a crossply tyre. What tyre pressures are you running, are you riding loaded or one up ? Tyre pressure is generally around the 30/32 psi range and usually 1 up. Used to use K71's on my T120 which lasted around the 4/5K range. Changed to Mitas and now get aeound 11K with n...

Not sure what bike we are talking but I would have said 7k for a bike tyre is not bad.

Should have specified that i...

What rear Tyre?

I currently have an Avon Road Rider rear tyre fitted but despite only pottering around the back lanes in the dry around 50/55 mph it has still worn out in around 7K miles.

Are there any recommendations for a tyre that gives a bit more longevity?

Hi Steve

Thanks for the reply.

The springs that I am referring to are the ones on the back of the basket, see attached. Does your reply refer to the normal clutch plate springs?

I have a J2/3 grab rail. It is effectively NOS and in excellent condition as I took it off my new J3 when I bought it to put a rack on. Send me a PM if interested. http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll189/a1938rudge/P1020899_zpsyh0tsmfg.jpg http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll189/a1938rudge/P102090...

I'd check theres a good + 12v at coils when running :!: Low speed problem was ultimately traced to low voltage to coils. By chance found that the main fuse was very hot on one side, enough to melt the plastic holder. On investigation I had 12V on one side of the fuse and 10V on the other due to a h...

I know where there is a very nice original J for sale. I dont know the price but PM me if interested :D Hi David Thanks for letting me know about the J that may be available. However, I really am looking for a twin disc model, L, M or A. B's look a bit too much like the GS's but still considered.
