  1. Timeserts may be more effective in this scenario.

    Missing a section would also affect time, not sure how that would be factored in ?

    @moleman can you contact ?
  4. When you find one, be sure to post the info here.
  5. Bidding has ended apparently .... What was it ? Looked mostly tl ? Sammy frame ?
  6. Standard position is probably pretty close, footrests were pretty high in the 80's. There's a picture of Danillo Galeazzi's swm with the footrests moved forward somewhere on the swm forum.
  7. Also be interesting to know Alberto's height, if he's 5'6", his recommendation is probably not so relevant. Personally I go for roughly sump guard level, and in line with front of back tyre. Section swept is correct in saying getting the back brake working in the new position can be a fun experience. You do have to adapt your riding style as the pegs will catch more, but well worth it in my opinion.

  9. I'd run it at the recommended ratio for a tank or two before considering touching jetting.
  10. Hi Ian, while since I've looked at one closely, but fairly sure that's where it will be.
  11. Sounds like the capacitor has died.
  12. Try another / old plug first. Disconnect an kill switches, check h t lead is secure at both ends.
  13. Sorry, can't see many benefits, only downsides. Is the pedal well positioned, easy to get at. Ever thought of moving it to the other side ?

  15. Remove fuel tank and spark plug, turn bike upside down and operate kick start to pump water through. You might loose a little gearbox oil while doing this so check when upright.
  16. Good habit to get into, before starting the bike twist and release the throttle, you should hear it closing with a clunk from the carb. You should be able to see the spark, even faintly. (not advised, but I have held the plug to feel if something is happening ) Plug should also show some petrol, if completely dry check tank / tap / carb. A small amount of two stroke mix down the plug hole might be all it takes to get it going. Good luck.
  17. Are you getting a spark ? Is the plug wet ? Sheared woodruff key if your lucky.
  18. Jeronis took banned substances, but its not his fault ???
  19. As above, Gerry Minshall is the man to speak to.
