Hi Guys,

I have for sale my old BMX/freestyle bike. It's a mongoose Villian which is a chromoly tube fram bike - very light. It hasn't been used for ages so could use a clean and some oiling etc. It's a great bike.

Asking $130. Pick-up only for this, in sydney.

I also have my other bike for sale too it's a Haro (I forget which type). It has sweet Skyway 5 spoke mag wheels which are pretty cool. It also needs some attention as it hasn't been used for ages either.

Asking $90 for this one. Also pick-up only.

Will sell both for $200. With a little bit of work these are kick ass bikes.

oh I should ad there is some surface rust that will need to be cleaned off on the handlebars as they've been sitting around a fair while. no big deal though.

i'll have to email them to you cause they are F#$king huge (2.5mb each) and I'm too noob and lazy to re-size them :Oops:

just pm me your email and I'll send them tonight.

Nar dont send me those pics that size.. Ill tel you how to shrink them down..

Right click on the pic and open it with windows paint.

Once the file is open in paint press control W and it will open up with a box labelled stretch and skew.

In the stretch section type in 30 in horizontal and vertical and press ok, this should have shrunken the image to a good size..

Then save it as a jpeg, there will be a drop down box and it should already be on jpeg but could be on BMP. BMP is too big, change it to jpeg if it needs it..

Then save the file: save as: if you press save as it will save the new image and save the old one in its original size. if you press save it alter the image to the small size forever.

Cheers.

thanks mate. as you can tell I'm a bit noob.

Figured out how to just re-size them on the camera then bought them in to work on the external HD (which by the way absolutely rocks).

so here's a couple of pics:

with some cleaning up and servicing these will both be great bikes. far better than the one in your avatar. :rofl:

seriously though, when new these cost nearly $1000 between them.

hey mate - yeah sorry been flat out. Might not be able to pick them up this w/end, but send me an email with your bank account details and i will at least pay for them

    • Bit of a late reply here as me and my wife have been really busy with new born twins. I finally got these issues fixed and it was something really stupid that caused all of this 🤦‍♂️... After alot of mucking around with trying to figure out what is causing these issues, I back probed one of the R35 coils on the power 12v supply, with the engine running it got 25v! And I thought, hang on..., this isn't normal. Measured my battery with the engine running to check for over charge from the alternator and it wasn't that. So then I dissconnected the R35 PRP coil harness and backprobed the power supply on the engine loom where the ignition coil harness connects, with the key on ignition (engine off) it measured 30v! So then I had to trace where that high voltage was coming from and it lead me to the brown relay "ECM & IGN coil relay" inside the cabin next to the ECU on the passanger wall. This relay feeds power to the ECM and ignition coils. Tried swapping it with another same relay. nah still 30v.. coming from the 2 green/white wires in the brown relay. So then I set my multi meter to the beep continuity mode and probed every fuse on the fuse box inside the cabin to try and find this high voltage power source. Wasn't any of the fuses inside the cabin. Then probed all the fuses in the engine bay and BAM, got my power source that was a 10AMP fuse called "ENG CONT". Pulled the fuse out, and what do you know... it was blown. 🤦‍♂️  So then I quickly replaced it with a new 10AMP fuse, started the car and yeah haha [insert extreme face palm]... The RPM blimping thing went away, car idles smoothly now like what it was before. I swear! I checked all my fuses with my test light twice before I created this forum thread. I think, maybe because one side of that faulty 10A fuse lit up on my test light, I must have thought it was still ok and not blown. But now I know to have both sides light up on the test light when checking fuses... I hate diagnosing electricals.... I'd take mechanical problems over electrical problems any day🤣. Drove the car around my suburb with the engine up to operating temp and it runs fine like before. However, I notice that my fuel pressure is still at 49psi. So I'm thinking this must be normal for my system as I've upgraded the stock fuel pump to a Walbro 255L/h with a constant 12v mod.  But anyway, I'm just glad to have my daily back on the road! Thanks everyone for the replies on this thread, all sorted now! One thing I want to ask you tuner guys, my base fuel pressure on the haltech main settings are set to 43.5psi from default (my tuner must have not checked the fuel pressure maybe when tuning my car?). Do I set it to what it actually is idling on at 49psi? Or just leave it ("if it aint broke, don't fix it/leave it")?  
    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
