  1. i think you will find that some of the spokes get in the way when tring to remove others but im not talking from experience here. I you do strip the wheels down entirely dont forget to note down the offset before you start

  3. Happy Birthday blackhat and yamahead

  5. Neil i'll have to ask the obvious question here...If it's too wide leave it at the dealers untill the gate is widened?
  6. just a thought though! when someone fitted an elec start engine...did they fit the earlier magneto stator to maintain the status quo for the early ignition system?
  7. Badgers I did 70mph at the 8000rpm redline today 16/49 sprockets
  8. for example, trawl the bike bandit site because they have all the fiches and not only yamaha see this one ere...a 1975 suzuki GT185, inlet still available and only $26...I know it's not the same but theres loads of other fiches to look at? http://www.bikebandi...39633#sch288412

  13. check your sidestand switch check it's appearance, tightness, connections and if you have a multimeter check it's function...and wiggle it about to make sure it doesnt affect the reading! Spray it with WD40 pehaps you can try bypassing it by disconnecting it and bridging out the connectors on the loom, if the bike works now you need a new stand switch and i am NOT recommending you should ride with it disconnected until you get another, that one is up to you
  14. so are the original spikes broken and missing? (see my signature)

  18. Greetings Simon and to the forum, we love the old strokers in here
  19. they arent fast by any means, i have seen about 65 on mine but i'm far too sympathetic to keep doing that! cant remember what i have for a front sprocket though it's been on there for so long now!!
