Something strange is going on with some of the Gallery pictures. The first 8 or so pics have suddenly jumped up to 1800+ views but other pics are near normal numbers of views.
Any clues?
That might change again later we'll see. The web crawler thing that google and bing et al does wonders for stats while it is about, it's complicated. Maybe these images have been linked to social media or something also?

I’ve seen reports of worn carb body where needle jet seats allowing leakage around the jet. Worth checking.

That's a result, they seem to have done away with the discount codes now.  I've decided to order my gauge from Urban Rider, not only cheaper but they answer the phone.

I don;t have long covid ... but I still can't lift a 750-4 motor onto the bench without a second person.

I think it's mainly becuase they are bloody heavy.....

Not all my bikes need full choke for cold start. Have you got the jet needles set in the correct notch? Do you know if the jet needles are the compatible ones for the jets?. The needles are profiled and if it's not seating correctly due to being worn, or the incorrect part, ie, aftermarket, it will always let fuel through at the incorrect rate. It's obviously over fueling because at full turns out on the mixture screws, she should be running very lean indeed.

Can’t remember which post we were referencing Digital Speedos on but I have been informed my order was dispatched today. By the way I ordered on the 1st March. I have bought an Axel Joost module (similar to motogadget) and a wiring harness for my next rust bucket challenge!😁
