[spiderman]

ohh okay, Lacrimose next time if there's a DIY session pls ask me along!

...and what happened to ARC's forum >.

 

Save for 5 riders in this entire forum, the rest of the RS125 riders are, unfortunately, too spoiled in their upbringing. Don't let their physical appearance fool you - they are mostly girls. Hence, all will profess enthusiasm and claim interest in wanting a bike that runs well, but none are willing to lift a finger to do anything about it. At least, not without their 3 maids in tow.

 

Thus, I shut down the ARC Forum due to work commitments, as no local rider was interested in taking over the site maintenance, despite my issuing a 2-month long notice prior to the shutdown.

 

Over the years, we've had German, English, Greek and even Spanish riders PM (private messaged) us to thank us for the ARC Forum. But the local RS125 girls in this forum have little use for the website as basic servicing is too hard labour for them.

 

The ARC will be back and running in perhaps another 15-20 yrs, when the current children here grow up. Of course, by then they'll be just old, grumpy hags who have no need for the website. Knowledge is power, but most of the girls here prefer to be spoonfed, like taking a protein shake from a meat straw.

 

ohh okay, Lacrimose next time if there's a DIY session pls ask me along!

 

With proper tuning and servicing, you will not have to change your spark plugs and clean your valve for a long time. I haven't changed my spark plug for 14 months now (and still counting). It looks almost new and has no carbon build-up. Those who attend my DIYs can attest to this. I also haven't had to clean my valve for more than half a year. It hasn't jammed nor broke since I started tuning my carburetor myself 2 years ago. I only remove it to inspect it for wear. If I do clean my valve, swirling it in petrol gets it looking almost new without any scrubbing.

 

In the meantime, my DIY sessions will continue unabated, and free of charge. During the DIYs, I will answer your questions to the best of my knowledge. Stay tuned for updates. I will post notices for the next DIY session here.

I go mostly to FM for most of my works on all my Rs. I currently need to rebuilts the front and rear suspension , replaced the damaged foot pegs and all the wear and tear parts on my RS250.. Jus finish upgrading the brakes on the RS250.

 

Ok, got time might bypass take a look at your baby. All these work do you do it yrself with FM help or fully done by them? FM allow you to put your bike there for such a long time? Their space a bit cramp leh....
