Nurse Julie:
Trig starts my 400/4 by hand just by pushing down on the kick start, he makes it look so damned easy 🙄🙄🙄🙄and my bike has got excellent compression.

It's easy.I start my little Yam by hand.

And the 2 Hondas by thumb.

One press and they go

Oooooh!!! Now I really do feel sorry for myself. Must be holding my mouth wrong or something! I'll have to get a grip of this one.

adespin:
Look at changing the condenser, if it's original then it's over forty years old and possibly on its last legs.

oldh:
Thanks for that adespin. I think that I've covered all the electric side, i.e. new coil/leads, condenser, points, plugs. But must make sure that I have them set up right. Also it's possible that there's a faulty unit, I have heard of that even from a brand new item.
I should have said this at the start of the thread - dummy me!!!
Thanks again for your comments.
Dave
