smiths farm,withcall.

ive got an interesting misfire now,the tappets are set at 10thou

,the plug at 23 thou,not checked the timing yet,doing it tonight hopefull,any tips gratefully accepted,as its a pvl electronic,i think.

also wondered if theres an easy way to check which cam is in the bike,could be standard or the r type cam,the bike is new to me and i dont want to have to strip it to find out,im presuming the r type has a different lift to standard,can i place a dti on the tappet and measure to find out?

well ive taken some measurements and believe its got the r cam in,which is a added bonus tappets now set to 2 and 4 thou,hopefully thats right from what i can read on here,digital vernier and a ruler,its far closer to the lift expected with a r cam installed,than with a standard cam,seems a lot better and cleaner reving now so hopefully ive got it right now.

Hi Dan,

Do you know Poachers @ Withcall is on 13th May NOT tomorrow?

Tomorrow is North Lincs @ North Willingham.

Oh yes, good luck. If you do N.Lincs will see you there.
