Hi, Can only go on general set up advice (as per 400/4) set the gaps on the two sets of points to the book settings say 0.3-0.4 mm at maximum lift, line up the 1/4 "F"mark to the pointer, then turning the main backplate, set the 1/4 points to just cracking open using a bulb or even the thinnest feeler gauge you have, lock the backplate, timing should be near enough to run the motor, after that , set up with a strobe----Ken

Hi, The "spark" is made when the points start to open ie. as soon as there is an air gap when the crank is at the "F" point, yours sounds as though it is well in advance, if the points don't close properly or for long enough, the spark suffers!

Hi, The old fashioned way is to line up the "F" mark to the pointer and a piece of cig rolling paper should just pull free from between the points!----Ken

Hi, Be careful on some after market "rubber" items, I reverted to an original battery strap when an after market one rotted in four months without leaving the garage!----Ken

Hi, Fitted Hagons myself, along with their progressive front springs with no problems.The bottom yokes were the correct gap and thread as per originals, easy way is to try the bottom "yoke" for side play against the swinging arm bushes, and try the fixing bolt before finally putting it vall together!----Ken

Hi All, Highly polished alloy was never a "Jap" thing, even the front forks were dull silver until the autosol came out!---Ken
