I just needed to adjust the chain as it was too slack causing my wheel to lock.
I went to bike meeting last night and went for 5 hour ride until 3:30am lol and it was perfectly fine. But there's a point that's too lean but I might buy new air filter and it will hopefully fix it.

Nice one Paul you had us all worried there for a bit but in reality you're bound to end up with a seized piston or snapped rings with a 2 stroke at some point and it's no major deal getting a re-bore or new piston. It's not as expensive as it sounds but i'd deffo recommend the filter for £13, just for the peace of mind!

forgot to say take Emzeds advice by putting a clip or wire on the oil feed tube. A few pence will save you a nightmare in the future if it comes off again!!
I had a suzuki 200gt 2 stroke in the 80's ,it siezed up on me on a highway , fortunately i did'nt come off . i got a lift and bought 2 strike oil ,by the time i got back , bike had cooled down , used the oil and got home but as Emzed says the damage was done and i had to have the motor redone because i neglected refilling the oil. penny wise - pound foolish .

We've all done it exc. I've had loads of off road and field bikes and had everything from snapped cranks to melted pistons, just the nature of the beast with 2 strokes but even more so if you forget to put oil in lol
