Ha Cheers Tommy ! Any closer to the end of the month and I'd snap it up ! and Campaman what a small world , I live on Lammas close with my girlfriend , not really got to know the neighbors yet though . What company do you work for?

Got the electrics running , there were aload of unoriginal joints on the wire between fuse and battery , just made up a wire straight from fuse to battery and now the electrics (apart from the oil and neutral light ) work , but only whilst the bike is running < is this normal . The battery only had 4volts even after charging so I brought a new one . And just down the road campaman Husbands bosworth

Hey, cheers. Went on it early and it rides like a dream, the riding position took a while to get use to . Yer will do been warned constantly of the fact aha ! Might have to buy 2 then charge one and use the other , I only see one kind on ebay so i presume there is not much room for upgrading the battery. That's good to know , as I am only 6 milesfrom Harborough , thank you

Hi new to the forum , just thought I'd say a quick hello! This is my 1983 YB100 , which I brought around 2 hours ago for £380 , with 12 months mot, but when I got it none of the electrics worked but it kicked first time and ran beautifully, just wondered if it is likely to be the battery as I think it's a 6 volt so would it not hold as much charge? I am charging it tomorrow night just to make sure before I do anything rash. It's a tad rusty here and there and the paint is somewhat faded , so there is some restoration to be carried out , also it has no indicators, dropped bars and a cafe racer-ish seat . Oh yer , I'am from Leicestershire bordering Northamptonshire if any one wants a rideout , well when my electrics are tick tock anyway. Jimi B
