[@davidtiddy6881]

Love these videos on chinese built retro 125cc bikes......please keep them going......

[@rbmcstore2497]

Thanks! we will do.

What protective coating do you use on the metal, please?

[@rbmcstore2497]

On this we used maintenance spray but on many occasions we use ACF-50 👍

Thanks.👍

Cracking video! So, these Bullit any good? We know they're made of Chinesium, but I've been offered one very cheap, tempted now if you can supply parts!

[@rbmcstore2497]

@@shootingGBS They are OK it depends on how it's been maintained and kept. Some of the models have a few electrical gremlins but other than that just regular maintenance and it should serve you well 👍

How did it get to that state and how did they get it in? Its like they did around the world 900 times on it.

[@rbmcstore2497]

I'm not sure but the customer bought it like this as a project so it was likely the person before him just left it outside.

Can nothing be repaired? A whole new carburettor because of one failed component and a need for a clean? The ignition switch was likely just a dirty/corroded contact, so can it not be opened and cleaned?

[@rbmcstore2497]

In most cases yes but the carburettor was £30. cheaper than the labour cost. As for the ignition barrel it was actually damaged at the bottom and someone cross threaded the bolt to the yoke, I didn't film it but I had to remove the top yoke and re-tap the thread, in many cases I have repaired the barrel but as he had no key for the tank lock (and it was smashed) I used a lock set with 2 keys. Again they were only cheap, with Japanese bikes it's usually cheaper to repair, with these it's cheaper to replace. Hope this helps 👍

Unfortunately there is little point in repairing a lot of chinese bike parts, they are that cheap you just bolt a new one on
