    original spec...you'll need deep pockets. I'd just make it a tidy useable bike again original spec fork bellows obsolete...£££'s

    what about 1 voltage regulator ? 2 Battery ?
  5. according to the manual the reed valve bending limit is 0.3mm
  6. Hey well done fella, shame no one here suggested an issue with the throttle cable...like you say though it would stump almost everyone
  7. Mine ran a bit shitty once because the reed petals weren't seating well, they were aftermarket ones at the time. I swapped them for a good set of original ones and noticed a great improvement because more fuel was staying in the engine at low revs... as for the very loud DEP, well it shouldn't be that loud...again I had an aftermarket can that I had re-packed using the loose fibres they sell, trouble is it packs so solid that it loses much of it's ability to actually silence and affects performance badly...now I always use the matting, its much more airy if you like, sounds better and performs better too.
  8. well there's got to be a reason...does the drive slope at all?
  9. Think I'll be going again
  10. Great stuff I love this kind of thing, so they didn't have radiators per-se, they just lose heat through the sides of the tank and the surface of the water?
  11. wow they're fantastic what were they used for? what are the open tanks...cooling?
  12. don't know the differences but I know the DTR has an old fashioned mechanically driven speedo, question is...what does the XT have?

    Looks good, over here you'd no doubt pay lots for one of them turning up, is there not the love for this old stuff in Canada that there is here?
  17. it's just a bulb is it...why wouldn't you just go and buy a new one?

    although the first lc's had a cantlever swingarm I couldn't say if they're the same...I wouldn't risk wasting my money on one, they come up on ebay occasionally you'll have to be patient,
