Hi Mario " I would think carb , but exhaust may need De-coked, or a rebore if compression low,,,

There is a new members section on here ,,pop up an intro,, :yeah:

On the issue of carburetion.
Accelerated more or less at half throttle, the bike is noted as drowned, shot choke but does not exceed 80 km / hr.
Could be the main jet or the position of the needle?
main jet standard: 190
Needle Position: 2nd. top
pilot jet: 30

The carb specs are right. They may be worn or, as Blackhat says, need a rebore, new plug/airfilter/genuine jet replacement etc.

When new the bike should have reached around 110Kph - but the bike is 45 years old!

Amazing technology when new.

The book I have to hand does not have the float height but some other specs to help:

Spark plug B-6H or M45

Plug gap 0.6 to 0.7mm

Points gap 0.3 to 0.35mm

Timing 2.5 to 2.6mm before TDC

Hello !

How about going to the "New Members" section & doing an introduction ??

Its considered polite & also you will get more responses from some of the members.

Lots of wisdom in this Forum. Hope you find the answer to your problem.
