  12. Jeff" there all good nowadays , we ran to France on triples, i was on cheapo 5 bucks a litre semi- ,] and my Edinburgh friend on Fully synthetic,[ halfrauds] . We did 1800 miles . i used 5 litres of 2T, he used 3 litres. half way to France , he pulled his top end off ,as there was a rattle . Turned out his Rings were gummed in, And he took them off when home , and were gummed in again, . This prompted me to inspect mine ,,the pistons and bores are as clean as a whistle, , So " its not just quality of oil , its settup, = jetting -air screws etc, , Hes ditched the Fully synthetic now, But i think it was running too rich & not hot enuff,

    This was i think ground breaking, The first production bikes with mono shock, ..Airhead found this years ago, but i do mind reading the mag back then as i had the Twinshock Dt175, and the Mono shock DT175 Didn"t arrive till 1978 , the 1mg model in silver was matched against the DT250/ 400 mono"s,,,, good read for DT fans,, http://davestestsandarticles.weebly.com/uploads/4/8/4/5/4845046/motor_cycle_mech_june77_yamaha_dt175_250_400.pdf
