A m8 once rebuilt a 2stroke trail bike. Having tried a car battery on it and obviously blowing the engine electrics, he then ignored our pleas not to used the ignition CDI that he found at the breakers that looked identical but the parts numbers were different. The bike sounded so sweet when he first started her up. The smug grin soon got wiped off his face when having gently warmed her up and adjusted the clutch, as he pulled away the bike went backwards!!
