Airhead

Nice one david, lucky to find it again

you do know that the 'original' rear guard has a metal inner guard to take the weight of the light assembly? equally hard to find and expensive ...and various moulded rubber items and metal bushes

Nick they are so rare...a 1979 colour only! why do you want them are yours missing?

Greetings mate nice to meet you but mervin will just send you elsewhere mind you...you will be in good company there

Four stroking is a fuel rich mixture effect. is the pilot jet unscrewed / missing, is the choke off, is the air filter clean??? It's not your DEP thats doing it

I gotta agree with that 100% shaun, tthe XVS is generally restricted to 33bhp if necessary for peeps who passed their test but still have limitations,

Greetings jon, whens the big day then

Greetings ben

Noise just skimmed the topic and you said you were powder coating the exhausts...forget it mate it wont take the heat, if you want black then buy plasticote BBQ paint from Wilkinsons stores

Greetings pip

Congrats Dean...a step nearer

Greetings Jim we dont see many TDM owners here, hope you soon get the chance to sample the delights of the big twin, fancied one myself many moons ago

Only consolation is we get more bangs to our gallon than they do in the USA, bout the only thing that is bigger here

a litre is 1000cc, a thousand cubic centimetre's, or enough to fill a 10cm x 10cm x 10cm box a Gallon is something someone just made up many years ago that got lost in translation as the Europeans colonised America

a litre is a litre wherever you are however a Gallon, well that's a different story

Unleaded is fine. I would do 35/1 myself, after all you are in SA and its a lot warmer there with an aircooled bike than it is here with a watercooled like a DTR

One of the plus points of a pumped system is under high load it gives high oil to petrol ratio and under low load it gives low oil to petrol ratio thus less fouling and carbon build-up, premixing can never do this so the final ratio has to be able to suit high load applications and so is oil rich everywhere else. The reason you have a much bigger main jet that is apparently not making your bike run rich may be that you are premixing quite a high ratio of oil, if you premix less oil you may have to reduce main jet size too...#150

2 = REED VALVE @ £14.43 3 = STOPPER, REED VALVE @ £6.21 6 = REED VALVE @ £13.85 7 = STOPPER, REED VALVE @ £5.92 Have I missed something or what, is there a difference on each side? beats me NEV, I remebber sometimes there is a corner chopped off one or both ther standard petals on some bikes...cant bloody remember why though but it's obviously to do with correct fitting. what is the site that gives prices?

I'm still on a pumped system kiln, so's Cynic. matter of fact i just re-furbed my pump with new seals after lots of air bubbles in see-through pipe issues.

hope you have a soh gomer coz that's sooo funny.

Cheers for all the hard work Alex...job finished now then.

Good What??? Yes you'd be better off here

Ahh yes I didnt scroll down
