i am going crazy with the idea of "transforming" the 4-1 in the pics below to a 4-2. I am trying to see whether or not anyone has attempted this and with what result? Eventually i would need a 2 into 1 and a couple of muffler too. I would consider part exchange Regards el__burro

Hi, any quick link to how to test if the system is recharging the battery on K2.
I don't have an ammeter just a regular tester.
Thanks el__burro

As per subject line, my throttle is not returning freely. The twist grip stays in the open position unless i twist it back. Not sure if the problem is at the handlebar or carb mounting. What's the first step you recommend.
Thanks el__burro

Good day, I am struggling to start the bike with the push button.
The bike (k2) starts easily with the pedal and all lights, indicators and horn are ok. I have had a look at all the wires to see if any shorts on the frame but nothing seems wrong. I guess it doesn't recharge the battery either.
HINTS Starter relay clicks so I assume it works fine. When I press the start button i hear the buzzing noise but no cranking. Battery is full (14.5v) but as soon as I remove the charging cables it slowly drops to 12.2v then around 9v once i turn the key.
Not sure if it matters but a few weeks ago I had to rewire the ignition switch, could this be the cause?
Help please, Thanks el__burro

Good morning, a very simple question, is it possible to adapt this 4-1 (photo below) into a 4-2. I really like the look of the exhaust on both side but cannot effort a 4-2 or 4-4. Thanks el__burro

Hello, Ive just realised that I have a tiny line in the top yoke and I am sure when I tighten it on the forks it will crack. Can it be Mig welded? thanks el__burro

Good day, Today I have taken the bike (k2) for a test ride. Still need to adjust a few things.
1 The bike runs fine on the first part of the throttle then it struggles (unless I open the throttle very gently) 2 Both front and back end feel not stable (quite stiff). 3 At traffic light it's quite smokey. 4 After replacing for the 3rd time both oil seals the RH side fork still leaks.
these are the issues I would like to sort out first. Can you help? El__burro

Hello, I've been trying to get the carbs balanced and after a while I could not get a better result than the one in the picture below. What could I be doing wrong? Does the carb 4 variance means something wrong with engine pressure or leak?
Thanks el__burro

Good day, I am struggling to do a proper job with carburettors. Below is a link to a video I posted on utube. https://youtu.be/9RgCqNbQ1aIThe problem is when I open the throttle. How can I get from this to the stage below. https://youtu.be/BmnImCG3jEAThanks El__burro

Hello, I was looking to buy a 4-2 or 4-4 to replace my 4-1 exhaust. Price is a huge obstacle so I started to think of doing it by myself. I have found a few videos on YouTube like this https://youtu.be/v8mMQbEkr8w. My question is what materials work best and what size tubing is needed (inner and outer diameter). Has anyone else attempted this before? Thanks El__burro

Good year, I have replaced the seal on both forks but I am in need of help. I have followed a very easy process reassembly the inverse way as I disassembled it all. My issue is the part in the picture number 14, its quite a thick ring between the seal and the circlip. I have been trying to ensure that the circlip locks in its position but i am struggling, i have "punched it down" but not all the way; before I make a mess I thought I could ask for help. please help!

For appearances purposes I need to reroute the main brake line from the middle (2) to the external feed (3). My question is will this effect the functionality of the brakes?
Thanks El__Burro

Hello, i am stuck in this catch 22 situation. I need insurance (and MOT) to register my cb750; unfortunately my insurer (on my BMW R80) has asked me for an extra £65 to cover the CB for 14 days.
Can anyone recommend a cheaper "on frame number" insurer.
thanks el__burro

Hello, I am trying to sort out the poor running of my bike, (not much response when i open the throttle) I have given the carbs a good clean but i am not sure about the right setting also I would like to check the valves to see if things improve.
What would you check first?
regards El__burro

I ve realised that the front forks have little resistance, perhaps a lack of oil. What oil and how much of it should I use to replace the old one.
thanks el__burro
