Description

WELCOME TO MY AUCTION FOR ANOTHER PROJECT BIKE. BETTER PICTURES WILL FOLLOW TOMORROW. THE BIKE IS A YAMAHA TW 125 I THINK THEY WERE CALLED TRAILWAY OR TRAIL WAY. PICKED THIS ONE UP TODAY AND I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT IT. LAST MOT RAN OUT IN MAY AND IT'S ONLY DONE 1508 MILES SINCE IT WAS MOT'D SO I DON'T EXPECT THERE'S A MASSIVE AMOUNT WRONG WITH IT. IT WAS RIDDEN INTO THE GARAGE A FEW MONTHS AGO AND NEVER USED AGAIN BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS OWNER PASSED HIS CAR TEST. I'VE ONLY HAD A QUICK LOOK AT IT IN THE POURING RAIN AND IT WAS DARK. IT LOOKS A BIT OF A MESS. THE EXHAUST IS RUSTY. THE SEAT IS RIPPED AND IT NEEDS A PROPER CLEAN OR EVEN A TIN OF MIRACLE PASTE. I THINK IT'S WORTH SAVING. IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO BREAK IT FOR SPARES BUT I WILL IF I GET ENOUGH INTEREST. I HAVE THE V5 REGISTRATION DOCUMENT AND KEYS. I MAY HAVE A GO AT STARTING IT TOMORROW BUT THEN AGAIN IF IT'S RAINING AND THE FOOTBALL'S ON I MIGHT NOT-I'M TOLD IT WAS RUNNING OK BUT THAT COVERS A WIDE SPECTRUM. I'M LISTING IT AS A NON RUNNER SO EXPECT THE WORST. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.

CONNECTED SOME JUMP LEADS UP AND THE ENGINE SPINS OVER ON THE STARTER WITH NO STRANGE NOISES BUT WILL NOT START. THERE IS A SPARK AND THE SMELL OF STALE PETROL LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THE CARB WILL NEED A GOOD CLEAN OUT.
