For anybody that is interested. I fully intended to leave this old lump till winter but because the weather has been quite crap recently I just can’t walk past this thing without doing something. She is fully stripped down with cam and exhaust valve rocker and governor mech taking a bath in a bucket of diesel. Haven’t found anything drastic as yet.

Sounds like fuel issue alright. Electrical delivers to 1&4 and 2&3 cylinders of course.

This has probably cropped up before but what is the thread on my spokes? I know that sounds like how long is a piece of string! Thing is I have probably 4 sets of spokes that were wrongly sent for my C90’s number of years ago, just cheap so not worth sending back at the time. Now I would like to shorten them and re thread them to fit a 14” wheel off a QT50. I couldn’t get my metric or imperial thread gauge to marry up to the thread. Anybody else encountered this?

Never managed a wheelie on the 500, but i was 21 stone at the time!
More than happy with both wheels firmly on the ground these days!😁

My original 500 used to slip like buggery on take off if useing a handfull of throttle taking several hundred yards(old english measurment) before stopping, never wore out and gave up worrying about it
Doesn’t help when trying to wheelie!😂

Walk in with a part number and ask if it can be ordered, if in uk 3 days if europe 3 weeks
I buy a lot of spares from my local dealer, HGB Motorcycles, Ruislip. If I order them before 4pm they arrive by midday the following day 👍
Good service Dave! Checked out their website, some nice bikes in stock too! 😜
