:music: Ive got those broken moped blues :music: After 25 years in the Senior[/color] Service, you would have thought that I would have understood the statement 'never volunteer for anything'. Jodie's boyfreind moped has packed up, trouble is that it packed up about 3 miles from home, so that daft sod, PARKED IT IN A CAR PARK AND LEFT IT THERE, for four days, so now the steering lock is buggered, along with the ignition barrel. Obviously they did not steal it cause the piece of sh*t wound'nt start anyway. Finally got the lazy git to fetch it round, and ordered some replacement second hand parts off :ebay: Gonna replace the broken bits before trying to find out why it stopped in the first place. Anyway on giving it a general check over I discover that the front disc and pads are worn, however they are not just worn the pads look like wedges of cheese and the discs are worn to match, this is so weird that I am gonna take some phots and post them. He has also now informed me that its due an MOT, like last week so gonna be busy for a couple of evenings.

got it safe to ride again, Kids trouble is were thinking kids on mopeds, he's sodding 19 nearly 20. latest update, it has a fueling problem which is why it keeps cutting out, something to do with, and I might be guessing here, the fact that the airbox aint connected, so the carb is probably full of sh*t.
