System problems? / Re: Banned

« Last post by 2T on October 28, 2025, 04:36:33 pm »

I access the forum from a favourites list on my laptop and got the same message last week.

I don't remember how I remedied the problem; possibly just restarted the laptop.

No problems since.

System problems? / Re: Banned

Thanks.
But I don’t have any antivirus, and I think the iPhone updates automatically.

It’s like the forum has banned the ID (IP?) of my phone, but not my account. The way it would if I were deliberately banned for some reason.
Quite weird.

Sounds like a local software or security glitch. Perhaps a recent update. No such problem with my Windows and Android. There was a few members on Face book who were receiving the same message but no mention of device being used. I would suggest rolling back your last updates for antivirus operating system and browser.

On my iPhone, I get a message:

Sorry skypig, you are banned from using this forum!
This ban is not set to expire


No matter what I try - home, copy a link, it ends up with this message.

No such problems on my iPad (hence this post)

Any suggestions?

Sounds like an interesting job. STAN S is also a member on here . He would be your man and lives in Ballarat.

Tech Talk / YZ 125F engine rebuilder

« Last post by waynec125f on October 11, 2025, 12:52:26 pm »

Hi all. Can anyone recommend an engine rebuilder for a 1979 yz125f. I'm in Ballarat, so preferably in Victoria.
Also the engine was pulled down a few years back and from memory I think the cases were not suitable for a rebuild. There have been at least two welded repairs carried out in the past that I can see, on both cases. The left case has had the crank bearing housing welded and machined. The right case also has a repair. I think the barrel, head and the rest are ok. I'm not sure if there is any way to reuse these cases or do I just bite the bullet and source replacements? I have photos but can't see where I can add them?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
