  2. i have done it but the doc carbs are different width, been a few years since i did them. had to weld a tab to connect up the carbs' butterfly I had pods on too so guessed the jet sizes. think i used the original carb size for mains.
  3. I'm camping with scouts that weekend :(
  4. back Sacha, great you are still around
  5. its on the waterjacket, but I recon it can be repaired. looks like it's been frozen with no antifreeze in
  6. nice ride out. I got a pair of Altberg boots, they are amazing. Waterproof and Altberg can repair them too. As used by the police so comfy as fook. Got mine 2nd hand for £50 and they were like new https://www.altberg.co.uk/boots/all-year-round10/clubman-roadster-original

  9. Tommy and I also went to Whitby, camped at Squires. visited all the sights and pickering to see the auction house. Some nice very roads near there btw if you venture out

  12. I'd start from scratch. make sure the valves are def on compression ie both loose on the cylinder and the timing mark is there. the LF (left fire should have the points opening, you may need to rotate the backing plate to achieve this, if not, then you are 180' out.
