Hi K2-K6

well it was a steel washer up against the oil seal and held in by the Circlip. I have been on it today and fitted all the new springs Etc... and it all done as far as I can go as just waiting for that rear Tank Rubber if I can make that fit too, as I can`t get one of the ones that it is meant to have as I did Not even know it was meant to have one till I looked in the Manual, so I can put the tank back on and then Try it out ... ( weather depending tho ) good bloke Ashley is going to see if he can get any of the old Carb kits he had a while ago from people who had more than they Might have needed so that will be really good if he can...... so fingers crossed Ha

and I should be able to get to the show Next weekend  ;D

Good news Mo, hopefully another little problem sorted and good to get it to the show too.

There's often a few bits on most older bike that's needed in sorting out, despite what was claimed from seller. Hopefully you're closer to having how you want it now with the work you've done. It does feel better if you can get reasonably conclusive fixes in place, along with the confidence to take it out more.

Yes thanks it is good news after all the problems I have Had..... but thanks to all you Guy`s on the Honda Forum and Ashley who has helped me out big time and hope he can help out on the last thing I require to finish it right off is the Carb kits that he said back in the day to sort out that Dam Flatspot at the 4,000 rev range.... as he said them at the DSS did Not even Know about them even when he sent them the info for them either  :-\ ..... But hope Ash can find some out there for me I will be well chuffed.... I also will put some pictures on here when I do get her out for some shots.

Thanks all

Hi Guy`s

Just an update..... well after it rained and I thought I would Not Take the Bomber to the show rain all cleared up by 10;00 am so my mates on there CL305 and CB77 super hawk got to the show...... had a Great day None of us won anything tho as the scooter lot seemed to win it all ( yes well what can I say :) )........... but ha ho the main thing I have to report is that the Bomber went like a dream, as the other day when I took it out it kept missing and that 4,000 rev`s problem was there............ well I messed about with the Carb`s and the plugs I had set at 30 as book say between 28 - 32 so had them at 30.....so changed them to 28, well what can I say....... I am leaving everything as it is as I say it went like a dream No missing and the 4,000rev`s  it did not even have a hiccup anywhere Now ..... so as I say if it runs well don`t fiddle ha.

cheers Mo

here we go again  :-X

Well been trying all day to get a better running Bomber...... it misses sometimes and it pop`s on the over run well most of the time it doo, I have this morning taken off the cam covers and re-done the Valve clearance`s also looked again at the ign Timing checked out and re-gaped the plugs also set the mixtures using a colour tune which I got to a Nice Blue colour, the other thing I thought about is if there was a leak in the exhaust somewhere........... I still wonder if it is running rich or lean around that 1/4 throttle opening ?

Weather being kind i`ts the vintage run on sunday....But I keep Trying to sort it dont no what else to try ?  ........... don't know if its still something to do with the Kits that Ashely said about ....... and Main Jet by the way is the standard 125 ...but I have not got any bigger ones to try if it needs to go that way LOL  ;D
