  • Help – EVO Softail goes out immediately after the start!

    Hello, have a problem with my EVO Softail. When I started it yesterday for the first time for this year it ran initially on only one cylinder (at the front). I had to keep the engine alive with a little more gas in the stand. At a higher speed the engine then ran normally. I then drove about 100 kilometers and it ran apart from a few false ignitions while taking gas away perfectly. Today after the start again the same symptoms. Then I screwed out the spark plugs to the sparks. I started and it ran again only on the front cylinder. When I pulled the candle plug off of this cylinder, it went out immediately. “Now the engine starts to jump only briefly after the start and goes out with a bang and a smoke cloud from the front exhaust immediately again”. Did one of these already have or can someone help me there “BITTE”? THANK YOU in advance, greeting fxstshd PS: The symptom with the short cylinder failure h But in the previous year she also ate at the first start after the winter break, then she ran the whole season free of ice.

  • Motorcycle brakes at 120 with (motor brake?) to 100 kmh and leaves at exit

    Hello, I’m just finished. I’m quite normal with the motorcycle (Yamaha YZF r125 BJ: 2011) after school on the expressway and was just at 120 kmh, when it suddenly (through the engine brake?) goes down to 100 or 90 kmh. I really thought now I stopped standing in the middle of the road, but the braking stopped and I could even give gas again. Since right there was also my exit I rolled up to the traffic light. When I came to the stand my motorcycle went au I didn’t get it any more. Then the first idea: I was already 20 km on reserve, there is only not enough petrol available. So for 5€ a little fueled, but it still didn’t start. Up to the gas station it was already 200 meters which I had pushed so I thought I could also get the 1500 meters to the next workshop. However, this was unfortunately only a dealer who could not help me. He came out with me and pushed the bike (in the first gear?) very fast, at least better than when I’m just standing on the starter. By the way, the battery was almost empty and it made less and less noise when I tried to turn it on again. I made myself on the way to another workshop. What are 6 KM with a half-fuelled motorcycle I also tried on the way with the, going into the first gear quickly race and the clutch let go only that is very After 1 1/2 hours pushing with motorcycle clothes in the sun at 20 degrees I arrived there. At the old workshop I was still really good at it, because he meant only spark plug or something and said that costs about 6€, so a new one. Without the 60€ hourly wage cost for the mechanic The mechanic there said it could also be the engine I was so hoping that there is no suspicion about it. He meant with too little petrol it would jerk and I hope there’s nothing on the engine. What do you think? Thank you very much. I don’t want to slow down so much, or the battery can’t be empty or anything like that, so it’s not up to her either. So he changes the spark plug and hopes it’s just her, because it’s the cheapest. But why could I give gas after the strong brake I hope you have a few good words for me. I hope there’s nothing on the engine.

  • 125ccm to switch to season

    Hello all, I have to change my Honda CB125R to season registration marks. I am lucky to have a big registration plate. This is not possible as far as I know since 2020. Can I now change my moped to season registration marks and still keep a big registration plate, because it is not theoretically new admitted, but only changed? Thank you for your answers LG Lukas

  • Control chain Aprilia RS4 125

    Good evening people, last time on my Rs4 125 measured my valve shims and then installed everything again. Measured since the Shims have to be changed soon. After the measurement everything again installed, stuer time set, chain tensioner installed…. After the whole installation I noticed that the control chain is very tight. So again chain tensioner slightly out and back in. Nevertheless firmly… then still valve cover on it and everything installed and started briefly. ur the question has now settled with the control chain or do you have to worry about it? Greetings

  • Scooter recommendation 50ccm

    Hello, I’ve been looking for a sporty scooter for a few weeks and I’m looking for models like the Aprilia rs4 50, Peugeot rx6 / rx7 or the supposedly identical ones from Motorhispania. Would like to collect recommendations for a qualitative model. Only I don’t know about the scooters well, i.e. even screwing around it will be difficult, but would have some acquaintances who know about it. Of course, I would also like to pick them up, because I also want to have some longer of them. Maybe no ch few things that are necessary to be able to recommend -My budget is about 1500 euro -In the week is certainly max 50km driven if at all -only in the own licence class b (or is currently still done) and the a1 etc I want to make only in the far future – in winter or during very cold and rainy days I don’t want to drive it necessarily If you still need to know something just ask and a big thank you in advance mfg

  • Problems with legal throttle removal by means of distance ring, 50cc Peugeot Vivacity Bj 2001

    Hello community, first of all a little history. I own a 50cc Peugeot Vivacity Bj. 2001 which was once officially admitted to 70km/h. I had it throttled in a workshop (invoice “Drosselung im Riemenstrieb”, because I didn’t have an A-guide at that time. That’s fortunately different now and after a short phone call with a Dekra employee it was said that I could come with all the documents and he would look at it. So today I wanted the Distan So far so good, box on, fan wheel off, sleeve down. Strangely, however, it seemed to me that there was no distance between Vario and fan wheel anymore, and the belt was practically clamped in between, if I had bolted everything together again for a try. I suspect that the throttle was caused by the replacement of a longer sliding sleeve, not by the insertion of an additional one. With the photos. (1st picture after removal of the fan wheel, 2nd picture after removal). , 3rd picture after distance from Vario, 4th picture Vario and V-belt without distance ring/glide sleeve, 5th picture length of sleeve=4,8cm, I think it should be quite exactly 4,4cm long) Can you confirm my guess? I am still in contact with the workshop, if I can get the original parts back. If not, can I buy something like this iwo? (link?) Thank you!

  • Rate of interest on savings bank(financing)

    How high was your interest rate at the savings bank? or where did you get the money! wanted to finance 10-15 000€ and the easiest way would be through your own home bank, but there is usually the highest interest rate or? where did you make your financings? but I find an interest rate of 6-8 % already too high! since I pay 4000€ only at interest rates! then I thought look through the internet and shot on fortis (starting at 4.49%) well if I would get interest rates who would be nice! to fortis… application not accepted but you can never get the cistern anyway, why the not flap obovhl I am fully creditworthy no special came around there! I think times they want to cover themselves and want you to complete this insurance that if you are in case of unemployment the insurance continues to pay! but that also costs about another thousand € extra that are all so abzocker

  • Selling old piles of junk ..Dangers?

    Hello I tried to search the board, but unfortunately I did not find the right search terms, because actually I am sure that there should already be something to do with it… would like to sell my old (13years 183tkm). Unfortunately I did not care for the car (I was young and stupid) and the car is quite down (lacquer, exterior mirror plastic bleached, glove compartment defective, exhaust rusted through etc. TÜV runs out soon) , but has otherwise hardly rust and runs actually still g ut. I bought a used car now, but the dealer had no interest in the car (50Eur Schrottwert would have been feasible), so now my question: I have every two days plastic visa cards of mostly southern car dealers hanging on the car, which allegedly buy everything… According to the DAT list, the car would have a purchase value of 1600Eur in better condition, I would have to remove the defects there actually still 100-200Euro maybe even a bit more in it… …must ic h with such a sale notice anything? Do I have to guarantee for a car without TÜV as a private person? Can I get any trouble after a completed sale in any other form and if yes: are there ways to protect against it? … because I would actually find the thought quite comforting that my poor wounded companion may perhaps see Africa again or so 😉 …. Thanks for tips!
