    to the forum Robin, Mervin isn't too far from you, but he always out crabbing
  2. strip each carb out separatley as sometimes the jets are different for each side. make sure you take out the main jet as these have tiny holes in them, dont poke (that's what women are for) use carb cleaner and air. if you have an ultrasonic bath, that is better!!

    I weld a nut over the hole and the metal flows onto the sheared stud. the heat in all this loosens the stud as well and use a spanner to take out the stud. I have done this quite a few times as I restored a classic car as well as bikes and has never failed me. not sure about you leak though, maybe some one has previuosly used that point as a lever to take off the barrell, thus creating the problem!!

    I think its best to get out more and enjoy herself. People are attracted to women that have a good time, laughing and such. ,maybe attend a few weekend events like farmyard etc just my 2d's worth

    we got there when the cavalcade went past, after the last lap we followed them into the paddock area and the marshalls were jumping up and down, saying how did we get this far. It was great parading with all the bikers and got the best parking spot in town

    if your breaking down the engine, all you to do is measure bore wear and lap valves etc as a matter of course. If the bike has been off the road a while, the rings may have gummed up a bit skewing the readings drewps
