    That's some painter you got, talk about colour blind how the f#ck can you get yellow & black mixed up ?

    I put the tank in,  and said ,same as the last time. [ he did black 2 years ago].  the tank was a yellow one, i had rubbed down , and there was a trace of yellow underneath,  So by the time he got round to it,  he seen the yellow , and just presumed [ mother of all FKups],  he made a great job,,,

     I still got the yellow,  am gonna do it Orange,  like theDT250C,

    Timings been checked with strobe. I'm happy with that.

    Carbs have been stripped. Jets look a little worn but I imagine that'll allow more fuel in. I guess it could be giving it to rich a mixture. Might purchase a jet kit. I am now running fine filters which won't help matters. Any recommendations?

    What weight are you Chris ? ,,
