inn Wonder what happened to that Vodka factory in warrington?
-
not seen the schematics only what yam did to the 250/400 on them, the starter uses a chain to the crank.
-
If its like the xs400/250 you need the clutch engaged to turn the engine over. If I pull in the clutch I get no drive to the engine

not nowadays, unless you hit potholes or damage them in anyway, they will last for years. there are different weaves used now.

great to hear, i'm getting carbon wheels on my push bike as they make a massive difference to the ride and weight carried
-
ypvs stuff fit too and there's plenty of spares being remade. Just got to look at the part and check. I converted my shock to R6 and used YVPS wish bones to raise the height. Xj600 stuff will fit along with FZR400 the 600 was based on (not the alloy framed ones)

I've used stainless studs before. they can vibrate out being so hard but a dollop of stud locker sorts it out. I'm a fan of brass nuts though, no reaction to steel and stay on too -

could be anything, emulsion tubes wear in the carbs, coil leads break down on these bikes. tried new (non copy) spark plugs?

Atherton is just outside Bolton, Dan is the man https://www.a-c-eltd.co.uk/

sometimes a marketplace search on facebook reaps rewards. I know of kickstart motorcycles in Manchester (If they are still going) they did some welding for me. Atherton Creative engineering do ally welding too. I got them off facebook Not in Yorkshire though

how did you get on?
-
you can get the dogs recut as race peeps get theirs undercut to lock the gears together under acceleration.
-
sh*t man, that's crap Why can't peeps be upfront rather than try and spin a yarn? Is it worth going round to see him after march 29th? face to face makes a difference to how peeps are motivated and you may get a better response
