    Life in America - We made the move.

    Zog...strategic use of the word "we" in your posting I see. I had a similar query to Silvrav re who can do this work. In my mind, based on bar talk and vicarious experiences of others, I have this idea that in the states, you need to have any alteration work to elec and plumbing, be done by a...

    Re: Captain Zef's in Michigan USA

    I read all the bloggers posts on here, for insight into other worlds. ....and maybe a pic of two of the ladies Zeff is chasing down... It would be so f@cking nice, if those who want to turn any of them into a "my country is better than your country debate", would kindly just find another outlet...

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    Ja, the main oil screen had some VERY minor bits in it. This bike did eat its clutch prior to the last oil change, and the get me home (off a horrid pass in Free State) involved duct taping clutch plates to increase thickness...it worked. New clutch did come with new oil and filter but its not...

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    @ Cracker...this behavior had me perplexed but I the only version I can thing, is that exactly that, the residual pressure held it in. The only other thing I did was take out the front cyl cam chain tensioner to see if I had a brain fart and installed it wrong, which wasnt the case.

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    Update time: In between dashing home to take care of my 8yr old cos wife is away on work for two days, I collected new filter and oil. Whilst Phonics and word of the day was being practiced, so was oil drained and new filter fitted. Fired her up once Layla was in bed, allowed it to warm up and...

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    Took out the filter last night. The worst I could see were some pleats, about 3 or 4 that were closed against each other. I will replace it today to see if that helps. When I started it to ride home, it did the glow on idle thing. 50M down the car park, at teh gate, it went away. Same thing at...

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    I see the 950.info site suggests tapping into the "bolt" that plugs the cam chain tensioner port, but that is a for a permanent install. not a test plug.

    950 - Oil light on after cam chain tensioner swap.

    So...stopped bike at 7 in the car park. Went down now at 11 and switched it on, not started. Oil light had dim glow on the dash...fired it up and it idles about 1100 rpm. Super quiet no cam chain clatter. Rev it up slowly and around 3k, the oil light was completely out. When the revs settled to...
