Airhead

Damnnnn, I hate progress

Dead right you should Em, you never ever notice the weight when riding, go on...treat yourself. 65o's seem to have a good rep to the forum. ...Paul

Greetings Phil, my DT bucks me in the south area too

Greetings yamagama, good luck with the project, dont know that anyone here has done this arent you about 25 years late ...Paul

NOTE Thicker shims increase pump stroke and output, Thinner shims decrease pump stroke and output. So You were pumping more oil with the biggest stroke 0.55mm, make sure the pin and match mark are aligned when measuring, you should get the marks alignment right before doing the stroke adjustment or at least be sure you are not on the rising slope of the pulley. You really must get the match mark on the pulley and the guide pin aligned when the throttle is closed. You have cable adjustment where it goes into the pump casing to facilitate this. It is important to bleed the pump by removing the screw at the top of the pump until all air is expelled, then replace the plug screw. Then what I do is start the engine and while it is idling I hold open fully the pump pully to allow maximum stroke for around 45 secs, this will purge air from the pump to carb oil line. The little hole in the pulley is for a spring clip and is a safety feature to prohibit the cable from jumping out of the pulley cable recess

yeah Pat I'm happy with mine, handlebar mounted with a knuckle joint, it is plastic but seems strong enough, never had any issues anyway. Waterproof too.

Yeah I know I'll make a topic about anything lol but just gotta share this one with you in case it happens to you too. Last week while putting on my bike jacket I found one of the press stude was not working and on inspection I could see that it had come apart in a place that it shouldnt have. So I wondered what to do yellow pages...google, and then it struck me ...EBAY Yeah with a bit of searching I found someone (a very nice chap called 'jerry baby' who sold special tools which comprised a special punch and an anvil and all manner of studs. After a chat with jerry on the phone he sold me the tools and a small selection of studs for the princely sum of £6.50 here's some pics Yep...I'm well pleased with my new skill

Hmmm so who led you back from squires pray tell

Yeah good one Pat, I'd be lost without my satnav

Back in the day when I used to tinker with 4 strokes there were different settings for inlet and exhaust clearance. Why do you want to adjust it anyway Les?

Greetings rayzmund

Greetings Les, thats what dads are for eh

Greetings cuda...a PC50 lol...shame on you

Greetings Stu ...The kitchen money eh...Like your syle

Welcome in from the cold riverpirate, thats an interesting little bobber you have there

Congrats on the happy news mate, may all your troubles be little ones as they say

Try placing you meter negative on the battery negative, and also at other earth points around the black loom wires and the coil ground lug. See if the measly 3v is repeatable. Yes the black wire on the battery negative goes to chassis (earth). Also try unplugging the red wire from the rectifier...still 3v. If the best you can get is 3v you might as well strap it to your arm and run your watch off it

I dont think you will find anyone here knows the answer to this. The best advice I can give is to try to compare part numbers on the American 'Boats.net' website

Greetings Andy

Naughty boy indeed, you dont do things by halves

Heres another, I tend to go here Motocarb You are not being done down Martin we just like to see an intro post first ...Paul

Sounds like blocked pilot jets, I assume it has carbs...not fuel injected?

Working off memory Lee and without the benefit of a diagram...The battery feed (Red) goes to the ignition switch and gets switched when the key is on to the Brown wires. Disconnect and check the connectors in the headlamp, make sure you have 6v arriving at the Red (socket)and generally do some metering around the ignition switch, like check the switch closes between Red and Brown using a continuity test (200 Ohms range)

is thet a police constabule from the UK? I too use iridium tinted visors, I cant stand bright sunlight and I wear specs so it's the best way fpr me, like Drewpy says though, not after sunset

Good news Liam, sounds like you have a bloody awesome one there, faster than mine I reckon but I have heard the early ones are the fastest. I wouldnt like to do 180 mls on one but if its in good order it should take it in it's stride, take your time like. The seats are bloody uncomfortable to say the least but Pat (2wheels) came from Ireland on his so if the will is there...
