Cheers Jimmy ill have a go

Folks how the F*** do you upload photo's into the gallery? mo

yep character building

excuse my ignorance but what is the difference between BT 014, 025, and 045s the reason im asking is that im thinking about replacing my two with BT 045s mo

All going well, had the xj out for an hrs run on tuesday just farting around and getting used to two wheels again and it felt just fine in fact it felt bloody good no backfires and a lot smoother at idle although as i said before the carbs are in need of a look at,also no smell of fuel in the sump, burnt the skin off three of my fingers on the exhausts though when i first fired up arsehol!!e, ive tried attaching a photo of skinless fingers but no joy many thanks for all your advice Mo

had an eye on the petcock overnight and the next day --all ok with nothing going into the bucket, refitted the tank and marked the oil check window with a fine marker nothing getting into the sump thats with the fuel tap at the on position so the diaphram must be ok, ill take some oil from the sump and take a sniff tomorrow just to be sure there's no fuel in it, ive found a lad who's going to help out with setting up the carbs, thanks for the advice though its always worth a looksee mo

thanks guys, ive adjusted the gap to 0.25/26 and she fired up first time runs pretty rough though and im getting a backfire when the choke is off probably the carbs need worked on bonnietiler -ive had the fuel pipe disconnected and run it into a tub with the petcock at the on position and nothing is coming through ill check that again in the morn thanks again all ill keep you updated mo

Cheers slice ill do that, i dont get the manual saying 0.7 though hmmmmmmm, ill let you know how it went

Folks a couple of questions ive just done a small service on my xj900f (94) oil first with new filter, the old oil smelled kinda like petrol, could this be because the bike was running rich?and the excess fuel getting in through the bores new air filter next was new plugs changed out with type recomended in the haynes with a 0.70 gap as recomended(the old plugs had gaps ranging from 0.25 to 0.35 and were pretty much carboned up) however the bike ran with these plugs on trying to start her up the starter motor turns over fine and the engine is turning over but no spark and a strong smell of fuel obviously flooding, should i reduce the gap to say 0.50 or can anyone see another problem thanks in advance mo

Cheers Folks nice welcome and hey a pretty good forum

First for me was in 74 when our techy teacher wheeled in a box and presented the class with our project for the year -a totally stripped Lambretta we built it in three months and then got riding lessons from the bold teach around a field at the back of school for the rest of the year "feckin ace" after that i got my little suzi 90 trailie great times and good memories mo

Folks stupid question maybe but ive just picked up an xj900f and when looking for an oil change kit with filter/s the website is asking to make sure if you have one oil filter or two any ideas anyone (Haynes is on its way) cheers Mo
