What did you do to your FJ-tracer-gt today?


Recommended Posts

Its to prevent an object from unintentionally unlatching the seat...
The "object" in question being nasty little, nimble-fingered scrotes (as we call them round here).

Could you explain?  I put mine in my toolbox, what is the function of the plug?

Thanks, I think I'll take my chances, and keep the block in my tool box.

So everyone, what do you use to get the chain lube/crud off of the rear wheel?

Paraffin in a trigger spray. Dirt cheap to buy at 5 litre scale, a great all round solvent and you can use any trigger spray bottle that is made of high density polyethene (normally written underneath in a triangle symbol) for example a plant watering spray. Spray on, wipe off with any old rag.

  I use this college kid that works for me sometimes when he gets low on beer money. He's not very smart but he's got small hands and I hate washing bikes.  
That and Simple Green.
