    its the T shirt that is upside down
  2. it is the amount of "time" ie degrees angle over the circumference of the shaft the contacts are closed. This charges up the primary coil and when the points open, the electricity has built up so much in there that is inducts into the seconary and through the spark plug jumping the gap. the more the coils are energised the fatter the spark.
  3. if you go to the meet, you have the pleasure of his company
  4. so we got 8 up to now!! Its hard work getting peeps to commit Paul. I'd also ask peeps to pay up front as, good as their intentions are, it gets "forgotten" or "computer broke" or some other excuse which still leaves you out of pocket! I occasionally still get a PM saying I forgot where's my patch!!
  5. Not quite, dwell is the time the points are closed,so its the opposite. told you these carbs are finicky, are you really sure those tips have not broken off, can you see daylight with the carbs off and mix screw out? the only other thing is the float bowl has a fuel run and it did take me a while to ungunge it using compressed air, solvents etc. drewps
  6. its under this very heading pinned at the top! He's from Breitmet, ask him yourself!
  7. must come to the YOC meet in September. up.yours is bolton way and I'm in Eccles along with Oldtimer who lives near the east lancs/swinton.

  12. lie down eh? you know something, my bike started to wobble at 90mph last year, and it has done it this year too. I lost 4 stone in weight about the same time, co-incidence?
  13. well what a great day today, weather started misty, but didn't rain to a glorious sunny afternoon. managed to get 2 session round the cart track and blew away an rd250 and X7 lots of left hand bends as you can tell from the front tyre there was a cool cbx1000 streetfighter there it won the 80's class, the X7 won the 70's and bridgestone 350 the 60's this was howling round the track as a latecomer can you tell what it is? A Gilera 4? Nope, its a cbx550 engined norton featherbed framed special. but it sounds and looks so nice
