Dt wont tick over cold
I keep choke on for about 5 mins, adjust idle thumb screw on carb so she revs about 2k rpm Choke off the adjust idle back to 1.5k rpm... Sometimes they meff a little blip of throttle after turning choke off. Ken

What to take a trip to the woods.
That's the shizzle right there!! Don't drink to much you will be likely to pee a strange colour and run around In circles a lot!!' You can invest in a bottle of tyre gunk that sits in your inner tube waiting for puncture then cloggs it up good stuff Ken

What to take a trip to the woods.
I've used it on a tube tyre pal done the job got me home and it does say not suitable for tube tyres you are correct. Green Monster energy drink and mars bars is my pick me up and rive on food-!!! Ken

What to take a trip to the woods.
It's instant puncture repair stuff, it pumps the tyre up aswell.... Only use as a last resort as its horrible stuff. Ken

From cold (on a morning) 2 soft kicks with choke idle for less than 5 mins on choke Warm day 1 soft kick with a little choke, idle with choke for less than 2 mins I too can also start mine with my hand but I punched the footrest with no gloves on one day so I don't do that no more lol Ken

Iridium plugs is all I buy there good quality and the central electrode is thinner and kinda goes to a point I paid just under £20 for 2 Just don't buy from china/hong kong as there is a greater chance to be shite! Ken

Are you talking about the plastic expansion chamber that fits to the carb inlet manifold?? If so there is no real benefit from detaching it as it isn't restrictive but does serve a purpose I can't remember what it does but helps the bike run smooth Ken

Standard airbox is fine, you change filters you will have to adjust carb to compensate for it-if your dt can't suck enough air through the box you will be able to tell besides its better to have an enclosed filter for them muddy occasions/deep puddles etc Personally I would buy the standard sprocket and chain kit that should help you no ends....

Sounds like it, bet there is a 17tooth on the front rather than 16t... I had a 17 on mine but I found the last 2 gears even more useless, coming to hills was a nightmare aswell didn't pull as good as the 16t sprocket-got 16t on mine now and I can pull 60mph+ uphill no problem. Ken

Broken down on the A60
Happened to me coming back from work going up hill, puts a downer on things... Strange feeling having the rear tyre flopping about aswell. Ken

If it's doing 70mph in 4th you should be happy mine tops out at 60mph in 4th and 75mph in 6th.. I find there isn't much in last 2 gears especially 6th I can only get away with 6th either on the flat or down hill.... If you can get your dt past 60mph with ease then you are fully derestricted, while my Reed switch was in place I would loose a lot of power and struggled to get to 50 never mind touching 70mph Cheers Ken
