tonight I decided to fit a new clutch cable to my first bike cos I thought old one had stretched, turns out it hadn't I should have tried to adjust properly instead of just at the handle bars. anyway fitted new said cable and went for a little spin make sure everything is good for the weekend, clutch feels great then bike starts playing up, I thought I'd run out of fuel, managed to limp home and after a lot of head scratching I decided to try the cdi from my project bike and sure enough that's the problem, seem's as soon as I start work on this project I have to take bits off her again, now I've got to wait for another cdi to come up on ebay it took about 6 months to find that one, at least I can carry on working on it in the meantime though.
