Ziggy ( my lil 125 ) is due an MOT this week and he's not running right. He's making a 'gurgling' sound, when i release the throttle, which I think is coming from the manifold. Is there anyone that could have a look and give him a pre-MOT check for me? I could meet at Squires...or maybe just give me some advice on here? Cheers

off up to seaways Karey but prob too far for you that try spraying some soapy water around the area with it running itll soon show up as bubbles may just need tightening

I would but sorry too far away hun, Plan ahead and get him checked earlier and somethin could be arranged. I've just done 3 or 4 pals for mot's last week.

Cheers Jack I tightened the manifold up and he's running better. I've just been up to Squires and one of my mates put my new wing mirrors on ( the thread was knackered) and he says Zig should pass, but if he fails, he will sort out whatever needs doing

lol cheers BJ and BM and Jack... well ...MOT day today ....................ARRRRGHHHHHHHHH !!!! Despite it hail-stoning and raining and blowing a gale, I've been trying to get the tax disc holder off to put the new tax in and not having an allen key or the correct size spanner, I've been trying as best i can and dropped Zig, not once but TWICE onto some rockery stones!!!! I think it's just the indicator that needs seeing to, yet more gaffa tape!!!! I've come in to dry off and to chill out .. Cancelled MOT , will try again tomorrow .. after ive been to the dentist for a filling!! Another good day on the horizon then...NOT
