Finally!

Post by Wayne Cole »

After much banging my head against the wall I got my bike idling perfectly, The carb would just spit no matter what I did so I decided to tear it down for the 3rd time. Clutch rebuild, points gap was huge so is now 15 thou, timed again! carb swapped multiple times between new and old, float bowls exchanged needles exchanged e.t.c head tightened down, pushrods adjusted, you all know the routine. Thanks to SPRIDDLER after many PM'S we got there! Don't go anywhere sprid we need you! :beer:

Haha nah mate London boy through and through! I have lived in Sweden 6 years now due to a certain 6ft blonde, I like it here apart from 6 months of snow, summer makes up for that though.

hello sir I have not forgotten the help you have given me this part year either, I felt I should give SPRIDDLERS ears and ache and give yours a rest.

The important thing is to get out riding it now.
