aftermarket pads are ok, ferodo and EBC but i have heard bad reports on those KYOTO pads not actually fitting the caliper correctly. hope yours are ok.

just thought i would start a thread to see what our usernames are all about. here's mine, i am called yellasei after my old showcar and i first used this about 10 years ago. the car was called "yella" after it's colour and the "sei" is italian for six and the car is a FIAT seicento meaning 600...

they are readily available on ebay, they are common size for Xbox games machines believe it or not. over here we have pound shops all over the place and they sell a neat mini screwdriver set for.............wait for it...............a pound, lol.

yes, there is one behind the right hand rear side panel that connects to an auxilary power socket that you can fit inside the under seat and one under the painted handlebar centre panel for the sat nav connector.

that sucks, our system is road fund tax and comes with every new vehicle for a year from the date of registration. after that year you can re tax for another year or if over 125cc 6 months or you can SORN (staturate off road notice) in the last year they have changed some of the ruling over the...

as piece of mind i would and will change my belt every 12000 miles and i will use a genuine one. had so many bad experiences with either not changing at intervals and i would never use a kevlar belt again. it's a long push home when they let go.

yup, not ridden my sport sinse october now and getting the itch, had some rain here the last few days so the rocksalt should soon be washed away so new month and i have taxed baxter for the summer :cool: i have never done this before as i usually ride all year round and i certainly have never...

none of the power outlets on the scoots run through canbus switching, they are always live.

great pics, i have seen a couple stripped down further but would'nt like to publish those :rolleyes: it's nice to see just how clean your scoot is underneath, i am OCD with mine but our climate and the use of rocksalt in this country just shows how we get bummed with corrosion issues. do you...

hi, yes i still have it, it still hasnt been used either.

2 hours, the cam chain tensioner is a fiddly little fella to do, switches are a doddle.

the 6,000 mile service is basically an oil & filter change anyway so really it is up to you. other checks are tyre pressures, coolant level, brake fluid level (which is changed anyway at 1 year) and check drive chain sag and cover bolt tightness. i rode mine for a complete year and carried out...

normally very well made items too, i have had Tucano stuff in the past and always top quality gear.

i have a PDF file for the fitment of these coats but it's too big to post up. anyone have any ides how i can share this??

i use the specified castrol 15/50, ran all last year and covered 5000 miles without either a topup or change and had absolutely no issues. we are switching to shell this year as this is now BMW's specified oil but tbh, im so happy with the castrol that im staying with it in mine. im booked in...

this sounds like a good idea, i have found a recall or two just from this forum that i wasn't aware of and tbh, didn't realise the clutch seal was one!! must check mine.

i really like that, thats the kinda ramp i am looking for.

as stated, bolts re-torque to 60nm or 44 foot pound.

happy new year to you too i have made a promise this year too, to add more miles to baxter and i am feeling slightly guilty as my 600 has not turned a weel sinse i repaired it after having a FIAT 500 smashing into the back end. tbh, with all the rocksalt on our roads at the minute im glad im...

spot on, glad the problem is sorted. spraying our switches with lubes etc will probably have no effect as it is the printed circuitboards that fail, you would have thought that BMW would have learnt this in the 80's with the old K series clocks!!
