1975 dt 175b points & condenser
Hi, if the timing is set correctly I would guess the bike will run , there is the point that the bike has the timing running out & only runs on some form of accelerentent until it runs out and the spark dies thro some ignition timing falure or a compression issue. but if it's timing read my previous posts Regards Jim

Jawa electrics
Hi Steve, the answer will be simples (merekat wise) ... if you go a no load voltage check from the genny and get nowt (no load being the genny unpluged from the loom and the voltage checked at this point .... older Jawa's (not yours ? ) used to run silly voltages across the genny terminals (50+) when disconnected. If you have that it would be good to deem the genny to be ok and sherlock (through deduction) would discount the rec/reg .. which leaves the wires .... perhaps as DR Watson Regards Jim

XS360 blowby?
Tim, I would guess just setting up the dwell, timing & carbs would put it right. The warm air coming out of the points cover does indicate problems with the cylinder head but tbh it is difficult to work out where thats comming from unless u know that for sure ! Dont forget the XS is OHC & not OHV !!! Regards Jim

Jawa electrics
Hi Steve try to 'uncomplex' the electrics if the brushes & rings are good and a good no load voltage is coming out of the genny wires (ac rather than dc) you should have 20v ish at this test. if you have that it would point to the regulator (in my day you could strip them and clean & adjust the points) but on your 'modern' bike you may have an ic type of regulator which may have gone down !!!! dependant on how the fork tubes get over here is a bit dependant on how the charging circut is checked .. I guess u have a meter ! Regards Jim
