- Wheel balancer advice Tightwad thank you so much for the offer. Looks like I may have sorted it out. I turned the cones around and it works! Amazing what happens when you're half asleep from a night shift :-)
- Wheel balancer advice I recently purchased a black pro wheel balancer kit with the intention of stripping, painting and then installing new tyres. It looks like I've fallen at the first hurdle. The balancer doesn't seem to accommodate the…
- Deka ETX12 battery? Just my 2c, I have a Motobatt for mine when it's ready. Read rave reviews about them, and have had it for about 2.5 years, it's sat on the shelf waiting to be installed, has only lost about 0.1v in that time!

- Gas cap won't open on 5th gen You can strip it apart and put it through an ultrasonic bath if you have one. Did mine over Christmas with my Dad. It works an absolute treat now. There's a video on YouTube showing how to remove it. When I did mine it…
