    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!!
  3. I'm sure the fork legs fit the stantions. try ebay.de for stuff like that as not many in UK!
  4. have you booked your ferry as they might be full now!!
  5. 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!!

    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
  22. drewpy replied to bswinn's topic in Classics
    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
