David Silver sohc 4cyl anniversary day
davefirestorm:
Will be on my gold ‘75 750F with my mate on his blue 650 Nighthawk
Laverda Dave:
I hope you all have a good time.
Unfortunately I am unable to attend as planned.
I finally got the engine started on the 400/4 yesterday only for it to run really roughly and the carbs leaking. I stripped the carbs again today and cleaned them twice each (that's four times in total!) in the ultrasonic cleaner. I reassembled them and completed a bench sync. I put them back on the bike and it now runs really well (in the confines of my garage, it was pouring down outside!) and I've not even balanced them with the gauges so a real result 👍. This was at 7:30 this evening. I will have to MOT it in the morning but to be honest I don't fancy riding it to Leiston and back in a day considering it hasn't been started in 17 years, it needs a shorter shakedown run first.
Have a great time, Mr Silver may have some sohc bargains😊.
