No wonder us old farts and our 70's bikes we own and ride , have got a hankering for the simple life .
When I got my first Bultaco M 80 in 1976, I rode that bike to work every day on the road, trialed evenings and weekends, and when it needed fuel, go to my local esso station, gallon of fuel, 2 shots of oil from the big red oil dispenser gave about 30:1 from what i remember, Never had engine problems from that bike.

Hi'
I've been running my Sherpa M91 on aspen 2T for a while now, ever since my fibre glass tank started leaking (evil ethanol)and had to reseal the
tank.Although I fitted a mikuni and jetted it for ethanol based fuel, I have not changed anything, and the bike runs even better on Aspen 2T 50:1.
No smoke and bad fumes,but it comes at a cost. £20 for 5lt,but she's worth it. (you know what I mean lads)just don't tell the misses

Good for you fish06,glad your getting the money back. funny when I read your first post about 11pm Saturday, I noticed in the people reading topic box,a member with the name of a well known trials shop, was it a coincidence ?.
Any how do you have all six bikes you bought still, quite a lot for any man in a year.
Cheers

Hi, yes it sound's like clutch drag. my Sherco did it all the time, no mater how clean, or light the oil was. Try rocking the bike in 4th or 5th gear before you start it when cold, and do as martyb said, once it's warmed up it's ok.
-
Yes, sammy miller products have tank decals .
-
Could be the tyre as gone out of shape if it's been stood in the same place for a few year's.

Here's two rival's from spain 1973

I use the 'C' shaped tool for setting the rear shock's, hook it into the hole in the clamp ring and tap the handle round. save's beating round with a drift.

Hi all,

I was told by the Murco rep at my local garage. Station's North of Oxford come from a different Refinery though

Thank's for the Info.

Hi all,
Just removed clutch side case tonight, and give it a bit of looking at, I will get back to all, and probably be asking a few questions too,
may take some time.
Cheer's

Thank's all for the info. I could see removing the engine in one might be a problem, so now i'll have a good start removing the cylinder first.
woody you said about Steve Sell down my way, I've seen is name mentioned a few times, does anyone know is actual location , I intend to go to Telford show and try and get info too.
Thanks for the link, and like you say bisby, I'll tackle the flywheel and cush with the engine in.
Thanks all.

Hi All,
Looks like i'll be splitting the engine on a 250 Mar I've just acquired. It only selects 1st and 2nd ,and I have seen a posting from scotty in 2007, which had a good reply from woody. There was no outcome posted , so wondered if anyone as come across this since.
Also does the engine drop out the frame easy, looks quite tight .
-
Yes your right davetom, it is a minefield. I've asked at two petrol stations about ethanol in their fuel, they didn't know what I was talking about ! ( Ethel who) !
-
Hi, stickinthemud
Thanks for the link, turns out I've got an Aspen dealer about five miles from me, so i'l check them out.
-
Hi All , I've just repaired the fibreglass tank on my Bully after it sprung a leak. I resin coated the inside and let it cure. Having looked up some older postings on the effect of ethanol in fuel, and before i refill it, is ethanol free fuel available now, and what fuel companys supply it, if any.

Blow torch, and give it a bit of heat.

Hi,
To be able to see and check the level,and coolant mix. I used to remove the electric pack above the rad,it gives you a better access.
may take a bit longer, but peace of mind.

Hi,
I had to do the same conversion on my Sherpa. I got a black silicon rubber reducer hose, 51 to 45 mm id from ebay, trimmed to length,
Perfect job
-
Hi,
I had a Sherco same year as yours, and had a similar problem with starting when I first got it.
When lifting the choke lever to start from cold, I had to push the lever as high as I could ,wedging it between the frame and tank.
It worked for me every time.
-
Yes, great bit of film.
Bring's back memories of watching scrambles as a kid in the 60's, with my Dad,
been into off road bikes ever since.
Thank's for the posting
