bit of an update; fitted the refurbed wheels with a larger tyre and also a new rear disk. Also fitted the refurbed front disk using original hub. I think I mentioned the saga of the fuel dump into the engine, well I've rebuilt the carbs (even having to helicoil one top carb thread). new inlet manifolds as the old ones were cracking, new throttle cable as I have to cut the old one off. The new throttle cable was a bugger to fit at the carb end as there are so many tubes attached to the carb. reset the TPS as it was out I balanced the carbs after replacing the oil filter and new oil. the bike runs a dream now, even better than before, the clutch cable was very slack but after tightening up seemed no issues and in fact changed a lot better than before. the enfoced fuel in the oil must have flushed the crud out of the engine. no knocking noises and jobs a good 'un

what time are you finishing? I'm out for 4:30 usually, and can load up/check the bike day before so I'm ready.

good luck ;)

I'll be there friday evening, might have to go on the FZ as the TDM decided to dump all it fuel into the engine. ordered carb bits and new intakes from Wemoto which aparently is coming tomorrow. you never know, just won't have satnav capabilities. there's another place called the bike hospital "Regular Saturday Bikers Hub.

or carbs need a clean inside. spray your easy start around the intakes and if the revs rise because it it, there's a leak so you need new intakes. otherwise it might be best to send your carbs away to be thouroughly cleaned inc jets. I've used NRP in manchester as they are close to me.

if they are dry, no fuel, carbs may be sticking shut of full of dried/stale fuel. keep spraying some easy start in the air box and if it sort of starts, its the carbs

mananged it Guys, was very tough as the temp rose to 30'C♨️ The start, empty pen, sson to be filled with 4000 runnners China Town met some guy from darn sarth, running for RMCH its getting full finished and knackered, get quite dizzy with the heat but didn't pass out thanks for your donations (if you haven't you can still donate)

I like the Bell helmet, had one back in 2006 and was quiet and looked great. the full face are ££ though

Have you checked the valve gaps and timing? no1 piston @ tdc should see both valves closed on #1and trigger on alternator just at the ignition point might also be a weak spark = no spark under compression

I've got the X chain via Afam and found it really durable. think i've adjusted it twice in 3k

you'll need a respring for ou weight, prob about £100

nothing useful due to lack of information and say hi in the new members section
