Re: Neevsy Bike Night. Monday 6th July

Great result on MOT. Bikes looking fine

I too have resurrected mine this year, now looking to add a few more miles to its grand total of less than 18k

Re: ……And here we go


Is it on the road yet??🤔🤔


Yes. Took it out for a shakedown test, just over 60 miles. Ran fine but kept stumbling on tickover at junctions. So I stripped off the carbs and gave them a thorough clean and blow through

Re: First ride out this year.

Glad you finally got it sorted and hope you managed to blast the cob webs off 👍

I’ll have to take a look at my carbs and meet up some time :shades:

Re: 1990 Clutch noise?

Looking at the parts diagram that’s the output shaft with the sprocket on the other end. Is there any play across that shaft
Any lateral movement horizontal or vertical?
I believe what you’re hearing is the free play in the gearbox. It’s the clunk when you drop it in gear.
When the clutch packs ...

Re: 1990 Clutch noise?

Can’t make out from video

Is the basket loose on the shaft as it’s splined internally

If it’s tight then the play is on the other end in the gearbox. Been a long time since I’ve had mine in bits regarding clutch so can’t remember how much play there should be

Exup freak or creed may know more ...

Re: ……And here we go

It took about 15 seconds on the button but it fired up and sounded great.
I’ve removed the tank, dropped the bowls off and cleaned them out. I’m just waiting for new bowl gaskets to arrive to be able to reassemble
I’ve ordered a clutch slave rebuild kit too as that has leaked. If the kit doesn’t ...

Re: ……And here we go

Box is actually empty 😂

Things are currently stable here at present and I still have my garage back sooooo ...

Happy New Year Karl :worthless:

Good to see you around the place. What bike do you have now?

The Irwin nut removers are really good. I’ve used them many times on various projects so should do the job
