    Thanks but I'll stick to doing mine when I want, not when disaster tells me.

    I use various wrenches until one works but did have to use the screw driver method once, does go against the grain a bit tho to be stabbing screw drivers into yer bike!:)

    Spoke to my cousin yesterday he popped into his local bike shop and paid £32 for oil :eek:. So when I said I'd paid £23 for oil & filter, he was suitably unimpressed. Bought from Busters on Friday evening, arrived monday morning. Today or tomorrow, well the sun is shining at the moment :cool:
    Tomorrow morning it is then after a quick trip to Laguna's to get the filter removal tool and ask about chain & sprockets (supply & fit prices). I am not confident enough to attempt that particular job.

    kev you will pay well over the odds for a chain and sproket fitted from any major shop, not that hard to do i fitted my last one :D ok with some help. Just ask someone on here to help :thumbsup: £20-£30 quid and i'm sure more than one person would be willing to fit them for you. ( some may not even charge )
