Remember what you do to your bike is entirely up to you and your tastes!!!

True unless you fancy a Nut Brown frame!😁😁😁
Then it's worse than a yellow cable tie.

Sorry Ken I'm still in mourning about the change of heart to black.

Ive had a few days off to sort the bloody garden, which is something I hate but has to be done. Anyway, as I said Ive got it running but it has the dreaded hanging idle. I can set tickover at 1k but when I rev it it sticks at around 3k, then if I lower tickover to 1k it dies. Restart it and the cycle just starts again, its the same as is being discussed in the 400 section.
Ive tried the carb cleaner trick and revs dont rise. What is the significance of the "bridge" between the lifters, mine look to be home made are they a vital part?
Im seriously thinking of taking them off and getting a pro to rebuild them. (who do we know that would do that). At least that way Id know they were right, it might as well be rocket science to me.
