thanks fellas, clutch will be fix in the next few days when the parts arrive. Oldtimer, the bike fired up no probs just at tickover , it spluttered when revved higher and worked fine(ish) on choke.

went for a little ride tonight, lamps kept on switching off, so I stopped then they went back on again WTF!! checked the fuse box and found this cheapo fuses, I managed to get another set from Tesco nearby. lovely handling bike, not very fast (although a did the ton on the back roads) but the chassis is so planted, nice. On the way home the bike spluttered and it felt like fuel, so I went onto reserve and nothing changed (damn) so I pushed it to Tesco to fill up. bike fired up but it wouldn't rev but putting it on choke worked even though it had a 4k tickover managed to limp home at 40 mph and 4 k revs at tickover, peeps thought I was showing off till the bike lurched and spluttered on take off. got home and took the choke off and it bloody revs as normal now. Need to pull the carbs for a clean, fuel filter and prob put new intake rubbers on as they are cracked. fun night and on my anniversary too

stainless brake hose, yes or no?
fitted them to my XR3 in the 80's, great braking feel same for bikes too. HEL has always been the cheapest and I got a set from Top Banana racing a few years ago

nope, first you say the bike doesn't start but it ticks over? Only one of those statements must be true but not the other. which is it?

grinding noise from rear wheel!
tell him what the correct size is, he can't respond unless he has evidence to support his side

I'm leaning towards the clutch now. carbs were balanced and tensioner already adjusted been searching all night and it has the same setup as the divvy. Thrust bearing etc etc I was also having issues changing down but thought it was due to the slop in the linkage. If i pull in the clutch it momentarily disappears too which gives it more weight Also the pin wears behind the basket which connects the oil pump which creates some noise. classic mini roll pin on order think I'm getting there now

never assume people know more than you, especially if you tell them you know nothing. Always do your research first and tell them what you want them to do.
