Well, went down today for the start fo the direct access course, think this is session 1 of 6 in total? Anyway, passed this, got the cert so it's CBT Pass [good][thumbsup]

So, now, this week can get out on the Honda CBR125 get loads of pratice in, the next session for the full licence is 23rd April, so got 2 weeks to get practice in me thinks.

trying to get my damn Honda CBR125 started... doing my head in (not ran since before Xmas), think a new spark plug may be needed. Basically it'll fire and thr spark looks like a decent spark when I took it out, cleaned it off with very light sand paper... took tank off, checked all the fuel lines as nothing was getting to the spark... sprayed some easy start... however, put back on, the spark smells of fuel now so I know fuel is getting there... it's fired once, hit 5000rpm, then died as I didn't catch it in time.

So, my theory now I've plugged it back together, if there's fuel getting through... then it's the spark... gap seems quite large on it.

Will pick one up tomorrow me thinks... not sure where from near Chester on a Bank Holiday Monday though, wanna get out on this this week.

Question though, the fuel filter leads into the frame... wtf is that about? Why is it NOT inline with the fuel delivery to the carb? Sorry for ignorance here, I'm a car person!
