  • Fat Boy 99 ́ rear tyres on 150/80 B16

    Hello friends, I drive a 99 ́ Fat Boy with the “fat” tire back Dunlop MT90B16 74H TL (130mm) I’ve been looking for a lot, but found nothing really meaningful…… Can I put the Dunlop 150/80B16 71H TL on the original disc rim 3×16 back and adjust that then past the original wide belt and get that so registered especially since the load is reduced from 74 to 71? If I didn’t measure myself, it would have to be at the belt just so pass by with max 1-2 mm air in between. Has one of them ever been “rebuilt” and also received an entry? Greeting Peter

  • New camshaft screw where to buy???

    Hello, I don’t know if I’m right here in this forum with my question but where exactly can I buy a new screw for the camshaft wheel of an Opel Corsa B 1.4 60 hp? I’ve already looked everywhere and found nowhere a new screw for the camshaft wheel. I have to change the thermostat on Saturday and this is unfortunately exactly behind the cover, which I can only get off when I unscrew the camshaft wheel. As far as I know, you have to use a new screw n but I don’t know where to buy a new spare screw. I’m grateful for any help

  • Purchase advice for my first vehicle

    Hello, I’ve already read a little bit in this forum and wanted to ask my first question: I’ve had my driver’s license for 10 years but I’ve never owned a car before. Now we thought that it’s time to buy a car. I’d like to take some time for that (about 7-8 months), since I don’t have any idea of cars at all I need your help. It’s important to me to learn from your experience, because it’s hard to learn from books. Questions: 1) Which car would you recommend to me and is also in my price range. 2) Used or new car? Now a few frame dates: – We are 3 people (I, my girlfriend and my daughter9 – I am 29 years old. – Our common income is about 4200 € – I personally have about 1100 € free of charge (known about household book) – I am ready to spend about 650 € for the car (without petrol). – Equity max. 5000 € – I expect from the car that it m The workshop costs may last for a long time and are still limited even after 10 -15 years. If you want to know anything else, just ask.

  • Which car? First car.

    Hey, soon it’s time for me to turn 18 and have my driver’s license. But I haven’t thought about my first car yet.. Experience in road traffic I have many, 25s, then 125s. Car driving is actually relatively easy for me ( I can’t say yet, of course, hardly driven a car but so from the first impression ) Now my budget max. 16,000EUR ( No not mom and dad financing, saved, worked. ) I have limited the selection to 5 cars: Number 1: VW Scirooco No.2: Audi TT No.3: C-Class No.4: BMW 320 No.5: BMW 520 I like all 5 very well.. At the Audi I still have to look over budget.. I will drive many kilometers as it makes me very much fun to participate in the road traffic alone with my moped I have already driven around the 20,000KM. Greeting, Fredo

  • Drive in England, stick your headlights off or not?

    So, as an Englishman, I have to ask the question all questions. I’m going to England with my motorcycle. Do I also have to have my headlight diverted with the so-called Light Benders? Somehow I don’t find any information about this, just a lot of questions. For my car, that’s clear, and I could imagine for the motorcycle too. Only, some motorcycles only have small round headlights, how should this be glued off. Was here someone last in the United Kingdom and knows exactly if I have to say hello to Jasonhttps://www.adac-shop.de/…/…-Abkleber-England-Great Britain.html

  • Speedfight 3 2T: high speed when rolling out?

    Hello, I am recently proud owner of a brand new Peugeot SF3 LC 50ccm. If I take the gas away at e.g. 50kmh, e.g. red traffic light, and let me roll out, then the speed remains quite high for quite a while. Only when I have reached so 10kmh, the speed goes into idle. It feels as if the clutch is still gripping and the engine brake slows down the scooter. Is this normal or do I have to go to the dealer again? Or differently asked if I walk away from the gas, Then should immediately disconnect the clutch and the scooter go into idle? Is the engine lubricated enough if I take the gas completely away but the engine runs even faster? The scooter is cut off (Vario).

  • My fight (cramp) with the starter

    Have finished my scooter (Baotian) for the summer, so maintenance. Everything in locating,only the e-starter is not possible,but this has been for a long time,but didn’t bother me,because the scooter starts with 1-2 times kicking. I don’t know what came in my head,but look why the starter doesn’t work? A large construction site was built up until the whole fairing parts were dismantled. Starter relay on the load cables bridged, starter goes. Control from the relay, brake pulled arrives 12,6 V,Start he pressed other side 12,6 V but doesn’t attract.Magnet switch broken? Have some more,but the same game. Taked 1.5 light cable,you can put it nicely in the back plug and start directly on a battery,Roller. I stood like an ox in front of the mountain, everything goes,the control etc.,just he just doesn’t start. No matter what and where I measured,I didn’t find the mistake and yet it was quite simple. What do you think it was about? Resolution tonight!

  • BROUGH MACHER tool, Made in Germany, does anyone know that?

    Hello, I am at amazon on the following Tgiff sentence :https://www.amazon.de/…/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?… Does any of you know this company Gebrüder Macher ??.
