Yeah, crap weather and I have to ride to the MOT centre a CG125 (luckily only about 2 miles away) then deliver it to its new owner 100 miles away. Think it'll be going by trailer for the last bit!

Good luck with yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's usually my party trick Mike, getting wet going for the mot

But I must say I've been very lucky with the last two mot's, it's stayed dry

Good luck with your mot and the weather

Chris.

PS. My chain had one link that was on the tight side, but after fitting a Scott Oiler, sometime later I noticed it had disappeared

Mike, I agree probably best to change it, as that is definitely not brilliant eh

That price does sound like a good deal to me

although didn't Lee know where you could get deals on chains and sprockets, or was that just chains

For Â£79 with the sprockets though, and a DiD chain it's not to be sniffed at.

As I said before I thought that sounded like a good deal to me Mike

Not impressed with that Mike, discrimination here

Free post (as you mention Mike) for the SP1, but for the Firestorm you have to pay

They must be struggling to shift them for the SP1 :wink2

Out of interest, do most chains come open ended now-a-days

or do they need splitting

(I have a feeling Stevie (Bikerpiker) asked this question before, but I can't remember what/if members posted)
