Hi all, a long time lurker here. An oddment. The clutch on my 2002 PX200 has always dragged and, over the last 2 years and 30k has steadily got worse (I...
Hello Greg They all do it after a while you can clean them up with a file but with a set of plates so cheap, just change them. Also if they drag the steel...
Yes, My plates were sticking in the grooves on the bell. I replaced the plates and the bell to make sure all was happy. By the way, I'm still looking for a...
Could not the "burrs" have been removed with a small fine file,if that was the cause of the dragging,and all else was in top notch condition.ie I would not...

Howdy Scooter Lovers! As many of you know we had the pleasure of attending the 2009 Dealer Expo last weekend in Indianapolis, IN. Although there were not as...
I've just finished up a 2009 scooter insurance price comparison for my site, scooter-news.com. I compared the rates of three different companies (Geico, ...
Yup. Had it on my PX200 disc @ 16k miles almost all in town. Mick L ... From: "gregnashuk" <gregnashuk@...> To: <2StrokeSmoke@yahoogroups.com> Sent:...
Hi Barry, hope you're well! These were way too far gone to bother trying to save them, the burrs looked like the top of an old chisel. If they were easy to...
Burrs too bad for that, Thomas. Fair point about replacing the wheels for a puncture, its just that, for the first time, I paid someone else to take it apart...
16k!? Ouch! Even worse if that's 16k of kilometres. Not really an acceptable design for a town runabout. Mine gets ground into London every day, round trip...
Greg Yes I am Well. the clutch is not a huge problem and a set of plates is not expensive say £20.00 and to replace takes about 2 hours. The clutch basket is...
Sacrifical plates saving on replacing the more expensive basket. I understood a special socket was required to remove the clutch (and line it all up to...
Some of you may remember I am running the RS tubeless rims on my PX and I promised to keep a log on their performance. Well, I am still using them, they still...
I understand that design is a compromise. In this case, grippy tyres are soft and so wear quickly, hard tyres merely grip less but for longer. What's the best...
... S1s ... 3 ... ~~~Something out of India? The 10"X3.5" nylogrips on my Bajaj wore like iron. Keep it squared up in the corners though, especially in the ...
Greg Depends on what clutch you have as there are three different methods of attachmentand you will only know once you have the clutch cover off. Regards ...
Hello I normally replace the rear tyre with the one from the front and the new goes on the front (improves the steering) I use S1 because they are cheap 3 for...
I love the grip of Zippy 1's and replace the rear tire 1.5 times for every front, somewhere between 3 and 4 thousand miles. I always use fresh ones in both...
I must admit I rather like not disturbing the wheel nuts etc - those threads are not going to last forever - and so I replace them when needed without...
Hi all. My name is Hank, 45yr old Male from AZ. I recently purchased a '79 PE 400. The previous owner made a vain attempt to make it into a RM. (Basically...
... I knew someone would mention the Nylogrips. I really like mine. Corner well, no problems in the rain for me. I got 3000 mi. on 'em and they still look...
Nylogrips will last forever because they're made of iron. ;^) But in the wet it's like having a tire made of ice on your bike. Not recommended. I have had bald...

Good, point, thanks Barry, which seamless link brings me to another issue, replacing wheel studs. I have one missing on the back so, for the princely sum of...
Hi Hank I hope I'm not stepping out of place if I say I think you have the wrong forum here. Yes, those bikes have 2 stroke engines but, 2 wheels apart, I...
