Thanks Mark you saved my bacon , if I would have known this before buying one I would have gone with Givi set up. What’s peed me off my bike had no extra lock barrels so I’ve had to shell out another £50 on bloody locks. Great video mate helped us 100%

I always really need a back box when I’ve left it at home! 😑 Having a rack and some bungees is a MUST for me. Love bungee cords. I think you secretly enjoyed fitting that plate. 😂

Had those Triumph panniers and top box on my previous Tiger 800, strong items but really heavy compared to something from Givi or Shad. Wife and I tour on a Street Triple and a Yam MT10. Didn't want to fit too boxes to them because they look awful on the bike but in the end we had Givi boxes on both bikes (examples way back on my channel) They are so useful when touring to keep valuables locked away and to keep dry. Boxes sit in the garage unless we are touring but keep the rack and base plates in place.

I fitted the Rack for a top case on my BMW f800gs the OEM rack and box. Seemed to go a lot easier than this. Think the tools under the seat was all I needed.

@@marksavage I looked at both bikes in 2014. Bought the F800gs looks like I made the right choice after all I've seen over the last 6 years. I went to triumph first but the guys at BMW managed to sell me a bike.

Great video but I need some advise, I got a speedfight 2 and it's unrestricted. I got the original exhaust but it's battered and rather quite ugly. If I replaced the exhaust would it interfere with the running of the bike/speed? Thanks

It’s the best thing you can do to them It will run better and happier and really normal tuning needed Fresh plug and airfilter will also help I have 70 speedfight videos to help and watch videos n my channel

Hi mate I have a problem with my Peugeot speedfight 2 50cc it only works if I kick start it and pull throttle at same time and then will cut out unless I have it on full revs, it also doesn’t sound healthy at all I have replaced piston rings, spark plug, fuses, carb and fuel filter still doesn’t work what do you recommend
@marksavage
5 жыл бұрын
this is common on old speedfights bud you only replace the piston rings and not the new piston?, I would have replace both due to wear so new spark plug and air filter? new carb? is this with a Peugeot carb or a Chinese one as they are not as good and have tuning problem as the air screw has to be all the way in and not 3 half as in my videos to be honest I use a speedfight one and clean and tune it like in my videos as I do have 70 speedfight videos on my channel to watch and this does sound to me piston wear and carb problems did you check the stator coil? they often need a clean or changing , what is you spark like nice strong and blue?
