Pleased you and Mel had a good time Dave and the weather's been kind for once welcome back!

The kitchen's usually a safe bet Stan!

And the bloke that makes a good job of decorating is asking for trouble! Bloody hell Mark your house is one that doesn't need decorating its as clean as your bike

Sounds good Stan you clever old thing!

Don't forget your camera Stue and have a great day

Thanks Stue its good to have friends He has not replied to 2 friendly e-mails I have sent so I'm thinking of using the carb for spares and leaving negative feedback its been a learning experience as so far ebay has been pretty good to me (I've never sold on it yet though!) thank you for all your input everyone if anything else develops I'll post up

Dick65 but some really good pictures again!

Thanks Macie and Ken I have sent the photo's and a friendly E-mail and will see what happens. Remind me never to get on the wrong side of you two!

Been on 4am till 1530 Chad (early finish today) and brain dead by 1900 like Mike says work and family commitments affect a lot of people but I think the forum is thriving and am sure its in no trouble

Thank you for the response everyone it's appreciated (Macie do you work for trading standards? cos your very knowledgeable ) these are the carbs and the pictures I will be sending. The throttle valve has been soaking in carb cleaner overnight but still will not budge I'm not expecting much in response from the seller but I will keep you informed think I have learned you get what you pay for!

Cheddar Gorge is one of them places I have always wanted to visit but never had the chance. Looks really nice . Its right about places on your doorstep though I have Northumberland just to the north of me and always seem to head west to the lakes yet Northumberland has some stunning scenery.

Hi everyone Right, won a Carburettor on Ebay (was a good price £23 incl p+p) for my daughters 2006 Honda XR 125 described as off a running 2007 model and in V.G.C. It arrived today wrapped in bubble wrap in a black plastic bag. On opening the bag the carb heater was broken off and the carb was covered in grime, the throttle slide is seized solid due to varnish (which is the main problem). I have emailed the seller (marsays_autos) who has 100% positive feedback but his returned e-mail says it was sent in perfect working order and no refunds or returns will be excepted I have never complained about anything before but am not happy. He wants me to send a photo of the carb to him which I will do tmorrw. I could probably use the jets and floats, but I wanted to just swap the carb. Just after a bit of advice on what my options are Thanks for reading, Mike.
