well there you go ! changed pilot jet and cured! still cant understand why , but its fixed .top advice neonsurge. anything else i need to know re the 270?
how is the ignition timing set? is it done via a stobe whilst running? or is it static set using a dial gauge?
anyone know what the correct values are?
it seems to be an topic with plenty of discussion , so now its my go .
i have an 04 270 rev3 . when the throttle is 3/4 open on climbs or constant going the motor pings .
the bike runs on 98ron fuel , 1.5% oil putoline mx5.
carb is set up as follows
main 150
pilot 30
needle 5c23 on middle position
2.0 slide
a.s. 1 1/2 turns ( i have tried to correct on this but the problem is higher up the fueling than the pilot)
could it be a squish clearance too tight?
it feels like its too lean on the needle
any advice ,or how you cured yours would be appreciated.
yeah, my 04 270 leaked on the left hand side next to the weld that incorporates the fuel tank, it might just have been a poor factory weld, or cracked through heavy use, but lampkins took the bike away , welded it and returned it in a few days, very good service in my book.
does anyone bother to insure their bikes ? if so can anyone recomend a company that will quote for theft cover. my bike is road registered but unless it has full working everthing (lights, horn, speedo,indicators, ect.) it wont be covered on a road policy.
get a rack for the back much better and cheaper to start with, but check with the towbar manufacture or fitting center, they will be able to give you the correct maximun towball loading for that particular fitment.
does anyone know the whereabouts of a quarry near skipton that lets riders practice? everybodys says the've heard about it but nobody knows where it is !
