    Noticed it last night,
    the 125 doesnt seem as punchy as it did the day before.

    Im not going/accelerating as fast at certain revs as i used to be. On the way back from KFC 20mins ago and the bike coughed and spluttered twice.

    Im thinking it might be an air starvation issue so ill chk the air filter 2moz to look for rodents/immigrants/terrorists

    Any other ideas?

    p.s. i have a nail in my rear tyre, i aint loosing pressure but i need to get it sorted.

    FKIN GHEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    keep an eye on the pressures, i had a flat on my old 125 and theres so little power anyway it really slowed down trying to get the wheel to turn on the flat rubber. you have a centre stand?

    Sorted and it cost me a 5ver

    It was a shard of uber sharp metal that had pierced my tyre, The shop took the rubber off, checked the tube and pulled the shard. It hadn't punctured the tube.

    The pressure in my front wheel should be 1.8bar and it was 1bar :shock: so sorted that out.
    Changed my oil which was uber manky and solved the poor performance issue, its flying now :D
    Checked the sparky
    uber greased up my chain n all.

    Done all this outside Easy Rider in liverpool.
    They let me use their tools and i was there for about 4hrs.

    Good lads and birds down there.
    tracey took me from the shop to the tyre place as a favour ,which was friggin awesome
    And a DAS student picked me up.

    Big Toe helped me put the new reg plate on, which loox friggin awesome as well.
