Tony I think you might of just solved my MK4s problem, I've taken the car to two garages with engine management light on, it runs fine but very little heat out of the blowers, luke warm at best, also hard to start again after it's it's been running

@@TonysGarage_UK we changed the sernor this morning, now the car is running great, no warm starting problems, no engine management light, car warms up to 90 fans come on, but when we put the heaters on temp gage drops back to 0, so we're going to look at that next, guessing as you said maybe thermostat stuck but there is hot air now

They're not really faults with the panniers. The tail tidy issue would be the same with any throw over panniers, and the rear footpegs again would be an issue with any panniers

Got my sat nav for my 2015 z1000sx today,my bullet connections have been used for heated grips,i cud tap into my usb but its wired straight to battery,so seen this box,now please excuse my ignorance as a newbie to wiring bikes,so this box connects direct to battery and then the sat nav/usb ect can go to 1 of the ports on the box,what im trying to figure out is if its direct powered to battery how does the accessories turn on on off with the key if box gets direct power from battery🫣be easy on me im learning😅

@TonysGarage_UK 2 ай бұрын
Ok. The box connects to the battery, but there is an extra lead to/from the box to a supply, which is only live when the ignition is turned on. You have to find that supply. This basically turns the box o, which then powers up whatever is connected to it. I hope that makes sense.

Hard to do as each car excels in different ways and what you determine as ride quality. The jaguar is a better all round car, although I toured Europe in the Evora recently and it was brilliant. So, for comfort and all round usability go for the Jaguar, If twisty country lanes and track days are your thing the Evora takes it. I'd probably score them both equal, maybe a 9 each LOL. Both fantastic cars!

Thanks, I’m considering chopping my GTS300 for a RA300, always hated the styling, I’m off to Italy next year and planning on taking scooter on back of my Crafter campervan so was considering the Hydra trail which is what brought me to your page. I’ve got a proper Lambretta like you (LI150 special) which I’ve used for rallies for last 12 years but reliability is an issue, especially miles away on holiday in Italy, as well as the risk of theft. Nice to see a fellow scooter boy KTF.

I am going to wait before I get some heated grips for my GP125AC as I am seriously thinking of getting the GP300LC, I just need to get to about 1200 miles on it to see if it loosens up and gives me a little bit more performance as it seems way slower than the advertised stats, at the moment I cant even hold 50mph on most flattish roads

Do not try and thread the inner onto the outer tie rod while it is in the knuckle you will shear the threads and potentially give yourself more work .INSTEAD Remove the outer tie rod from the knuckle(IF you're struggling REMOVING THE OUTER TIE ROD get a Ball Joint Separator i have one from amazon OEM Tools cost me about 40$ but the GEARWRENCH Ball Joint Separator - 3916D is near that price as well. this will help you with any ball joint that is giving you trouble. trust me you NEED this tool) Then count how many times it has spun to come off the inner. (in my case it was 21) then remove the inner tie rod. put the new inner on, thread the outer tie rod onto your inner "21" times then put the outer tie rod into the knuckle and tighten it down. job done so long as your alignment was correct before hand if not you'll need to get her aligned
