  1. that's what I meant, but had it so long can't remember what it was called
  2. those spray bars needs cleaning. don't drill out the screw on the diaphram caps, use either a long gripper or try and get it in a vice and turn the carbs. my left carb leaked at first , but it fills the right carb too and mine stopped after a bit and has been fine ever since. try 27mm as a compromise. your still too lean! 3 turns out on pilot mix screw? BTW check that the pilot tip hasnt broken off in the carb, common on PO's who mess and tighten them up too much.

    why not run a multimeter over the connections to check continuity. A picture would help in diagnosing. a little hello would be great in new members section too!
  4. i got a chisel with a taper and use that. sometimes I need to refresh the tip on a grinder.
  5. wow, that's fortuitous. nice one
  6. spray bar is accessed when you take off the diaphram and mains inside the carb. It should just tap out through the diaphram side. its HZ in this diagram 32mm is wrong and 26mm will richen your carbs too. Its a known error with Haynes. 3 turns out for the pilot circuit mix screw.
  7. did you clean the spray bar, as you didn't mention it. If you have brass floats, the height should be 26mm top of float to top of carb body (with the carb upside down) sometimes the butterfly seals/bearings can wear (mikexs can supply those) if you have the later plastic floats, the float height is measured via a clear tube from the bottom float bowl (with fuel in) to within 2mm of the top of the float bowl. have you pod filters on the bike or running stock?
  8. I know, got the bike out, started it and it threw it down FFS
  9. felice anno Nuova Filippo. to the YOC nice bike you have there

  11. okey dokey, a brew should clear the head!
  12. Try and get down 1:30ish if the weathers good and the bike will start!
  13. goff said he is on ebay, but that was 3 years ago and we not seen her on here for a while. Try to PM her!

    looking good fella
  15. hello I'm old on here
  16. look like some thing to get your teeth into! get yourself a manual to familliarise yourself with the bike and take lots of pictures so you know where things go when they go back after a few weeks!
  17. to the YOC sprocket bearings will wear fairly quickly, but I've never known a wheel bearing to lock up. I assume you have the owners and workshop manual as they will give the service life for checking them. Basically if they are smooth and no shhing noise then they are fine! hope that helps
  18. never went to Goffs place, snaggled the picture from the Honda forum

  22. cool, well it was looked after by Goff, she doted on it till Lucian came along.
