what about this?

You'd have some shiney nipples with that thing!

hard too!! .. 

Repalce the top triple. Simple - why bother farkling trying to remove the old lock. Come over and I can give you a few where the lock was correctly removed. Or I probably have a complete set.
See you in, what, 18 hours? Unless your flight layovers are long then 24 hours. Spare bedroom for the night before you fly home.

Oh I can guess where the paperclip would work...

Now I have to to track down a whole new barrel and probably tank cap too.. fleabay has one at NZ$178.. might ring around tomorrow.

I am tempted to install a wireless starting RFID system... I have enough parts in the drawer..

Yes and a pre 95 GSXR can be jumped with a penny.
Cool.
Buddha.

Got it sorted eventually - took the triple off and drilled / extracted it.. it seems it is an E4 security torx that is too difficult to find at short notice..

6x16mm hex cap screw in there now..

Well kijona within 2 months of me soaking my chain n sprockets in diesel my chain became so loose and rusted that the bloke would let me ride out of the parts store without making my buy new chain n sprockets. He gave me a good deal so no biggie.

Now next ask me how I know. Don't overtighten your steering head bearings ask me how I know.

Weird...what kind of chain was it?

I don't know, maybe Aussie diesel has something extra in it (and I'm being serious, not poking fun).

Did you not apply a lubricant afterwards? I can't imagine how the chain would become rusted otherwise. Usually I just used the diesel to clean the chain really well and then applied generous amounts of lubricant to the chain. I never took the sprockets off to clean them.

Diesel is diesel. Might have been low sulfur I dunno it's diesel. And yes cleaned n lubed every 2 tanks of fuel. It was a DID chain

I dunno brother. It never gave me problems. 

There are definitely better ways to do it though.

Ok this is an MZ 660 that's been kicking my butt for 18 months.
Suspected the ignitor box. I recall doing some wicked soldering on it last yeat before I managed to get it started and run for 30 miles. So stil lsuspected the ignitor box, and worse yet, I may have changed something - no idea, dont remember what.

Bought another MZ - guess what ... my ignitor works on it, and I changed nothing. I just resoldered ...

So WTF ... why wont the bloody thing start.

Not carbs, it ran the same way, like a bear.
Not crank trigger - OK maybe crank trigger, It had spark bright enough to read a book.

The new MZ has a battery so freaking massive it can power a small country ... so big, it cant be removed without moving the air box out of the way ... I may try that in mine.
Mine may have a ignition rotor that has turned on the crank making it spark @ the wrong time.

Anyway nothing I have learnt yet ... whatever it is, is gonna be huge.

Cool.
Buddha.
