Stainless rims and spokes
Drums skimmed and obviously new shoes

Engine rebuilt, new bearings and seals, resleeved to std,
New clutch
Rose jointed gear linkage
New paint, a few scratches, it does get used,new rear shocks, chain and sprockets.

Clocks redone by Peter,
Electronic ignition, and generator, new maintenance free battery, seat needs attention,

I have been asked if I am interested in a  barn find, well it was never really lost,just put away many years ago,

And time has taken its toll,

It has drum braked model,

Pretty certain it's the twin,

Squarish shaped tank,chrome sides

What is the chance of getting parts?

I shall try to get the picture

SOHC Singles & Twins / CB200 carb issues
« on: November 24, 2022, 07:11:44 PM »


  I am have problems trying to get my 200 to run above 6K,

basically the air cleaners are unavailable,the originals were caked with dirt,although the bike ran OK,it was rich at high revs.

 I tried to sort it by ripping out the card/fibre board ,replaced by foam,then the problems started,

seem to run ok below 6K,and small throttle opening,.

 using standard needle,if I lift it one groove,it runs rich low down,

 so I increased the MJ in various stages to 110,from 88,,but will not run at full throttle above 6k,or rev past 6k,

 still seems lean,

 any ideas?

I know it has a long inlet tract,how does this effect it?
I suspect it is the pulses,and pressure waves to help fill the cylinder,

Can a O or X ring chain be safely fitted to the 500 series bikes,

Or are we limited to standard DID heavy duty

I have a small basic sat Nav for sale,

It has the latest 3.0 software

Probably could do with map updates,

Covers UK and Europe.

It is used, and the price reflects that,

Manual and updates easily available from the Garmin computer app.

£50 +p&p

(About £5)
