750 K4, poor running
ianmck:
firstly, yes it did turn out to be the battery, got a new one and all is well on the elec problem.
secondly, my poor running problem is now cured, after trying all suggestions from this and the American sister site, it was still the same, (would'nt rev over 3/3500). in desperation, I removed the new base plate points and condensors, (genuine Honda from DS), fitted the set from my 400/4, (after checking compatibility), checked the gaps, set timing, took it down the road, perfect.
So now I can get it out on the road for what is left of our super summer. Many thanks to all who tryed to help, going to get onto DS see if they can sort anything out regarding the point etc.
Regards ianmck.

glad you got the bike sorted, i had the same battery problem ,so here is a quick update on my bike, the battery shows 12.28 volts but as soon as i put any drain on it it goes flat wont even power the oil and neutral light,it then creeps back up to 12.28 volts over time, it has a shorted or dead cell.
hi bryanj i agree with you 100% with your last post about the gel batteries i have seen them for sale up to
Bryanj:
No reason you shouldnt name the seller if you have good service----same if you get a bad one!!!! Its always better to buy stuff on recomendation rather than guestimation.
As to the bad points plate----could it have been preservative on the contacts?
steff750:

the ebay seller is LMspares online they have a small shop in hereford ,but i think they do all thier selling online they do lots of other stuff aswell as gel batteries nice people too deal with and really friendly
