catskinner Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Oops, That was my first ever post. Virgin's mistake! I used Ian's diagram to advance my ignition and what an improvement! Better even than the straight perf silencer tube. A.T. ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianj Posted December 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Sorry if i sound stupid (never mind) but where abouts is this bracket and is it inside the engine.Gavin Hi, Take the flywheel cover off the engine, then look inside the cover....voila! You do not need to remove the flywheel on the Monts. Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty-python Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 .....duh!, promising a Scotsman a beer!......NEVER EVER do that.....he'll always hold you to it..........til yer old and grey! Especially an Aberdonian, eh Ian. If your doing any bon accord trials next year i may see you. I only plan on doing one or two .(Lumsden definitely), I will do the mod next week, but i'm wondering whether to go for 2 or 3mm, or does it not matter too much?? I'll let you know how i get on.

boofont Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Alan, I've got a good mod for the mont.... Buy a Scorpa!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty-python Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I had a shot of one the other week. Quite a good bike, But i've since seen this strange scorpa ritual of taking all the bodywork off and turning them upside down to pump water/ petrol out of them before they will run properly. I dont understand this, i've never had to do this to the montesa!! Wooooo Hoooooo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsage Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 IanJ, now go the hole hog and lighten the flywheel to finnish the job!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattylad Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Lightening the flywheel certainly livens up the old girl. Dont take too much off. 200g is a good starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
