  1. Ok" lets start with the oil, its a 2 stroke ,so fill the oil tank,[ semi synth or fully synth] . the sight glass ? is that on casing or oil tank, So you pranged the bike,, could be throttle prob also. Jetting ? gotta do plug chops to see whats needed , that bogging could be too mutch air , this effects running and idle too
  2. Aye nickity" sounds like your on the case,,a fresh top end will improve her,, the air screw will help too, the float height is more important at W.O.Throttle, if its low it could lean out, Remember your probably heavier nowadays, so she"l be lucky to see 60mph oh and correct plug will help,,[ as book says,]
  3. Yeh" especially with the increase in traffic nowa-says , AND ,, no distractions like phones laptops sat nav,etc back then ,

  5. I have to agree" 2strokes are cheap to refurb , the Husqvarna WR300 is a cracker. The KTM XC300 also..

    I never got the 4 stroke thing back in the 70"s , they were dire bloody things, as I said before "there was a XS400 sat in our Yam dealers window for years, while the Rd"s were bought as they came out the crate, So if they werna desirable then " the price"s now will never cover a resto. good on yeh for saving her , I like the colour. And I see you got your R1 nicked,, dam
  20. New liner, or S/H barrel... then fit a spark plug temp gauge. bigger jet, and check float level, -fuel flow too, she must been flat out was she?
  21. If any of you are staying over, ,thers a great hotel in St Albans, [15mls north of ace] its on the London rd,.. Me and Cardboard Dave rode down from Rippon [ N/yorks] on the Saturday, in 2010.
