Many thanks,was beginning to think no one out there. Much appreciated. Peter.

Any willing helpers out there?

Need to know std pilot jet size as I've stupidly dropped mine in garden while cleaning carb and try as I may can't find it!!!!😡 Thanks in advance. Pete.

As stated covered in lacquer from new, best option use paint stripper to remove said lacquer and use Peek metal polish to restore then rely on polish from then on.

if you are talking gear box my 2012 takes 450ml. assume your year would be same as.

Great video coverage many thanks.

Yeh I'd be interested in having a Honda 2t again having had three 315s in the past,brilliant engines.

Hi...I have a 2009 4T great bike when running but very hard to start when hot so have gone back to 2t Sherco much easier to start and ride. Thought I would upload a photo of mine which I still have.

Great video's many thanks.

Brilliant.....still laughing.

Hi just wanted to say thanks to you all for your replies,now sorted it was the vacuum pipe that was the problem. Must say it's great to have access to so much help at the touch of a button.

Hi....Assume as a 2001 model will have rainbow forks not sure what answer to that would be as obviously a special finish.

Thanks oni nou I did remove the jets to blast them I think i'll go down the vaccum route next and see if that cures the problem.

Hi sirdabalot, could I have re-fitted the floats wrong therefore not filling float bowl? Really trying to avoid the need to remove carb/airbox as such a task to re-fit!!! I did try leaning bike as suggested and carb did not appear to overflow and plug was dry ish,I suppose it is possible that I have fitted the fuel line to carb at the wrong angle causing a kink in the pipe but was hoping as said to avoid removing carb/airbox.

Thanks sirdabalot,I'll check that out today although I did loosen the float bowl and fuel came out so assume fuel is ok?

Hi .....have 2012 250st which packed up at a trial few weeks ago when it would only start even when hot with choke and could not get it to tick over at all so took air box off and carb blasted jet and carb with air line plus carb cleaner but could not get carb and box back,real pig of a job so called on a friend to help who after some time managed to re-fit. Sorry this is long winded but may lead to a clue? When I picked up bike it started and ticked over even though filter was out. Now went to start today (should be riding tomorrow) and no joy....good spark,new plug,fuel in carb any ideas please? Thanks in advance......Pete.

Bike looks very tidy,I had a 250 in the 80s why the white colour scheme? Otherwise love it.

As said remove light,buy number board cable tie on and away you go.

Hi....yeh had a 309 in the past and as said plenty of neutral's!! Your oil should be fine. regards .....Pete.

Yes, well done Dougie perfect job....Congrats to you

Works ok on my Sherco 4t,no problems.

Doh!!!! just had a proper look and low and behold there it is where you would expect it! please disregard this post if you haven't already. Pete,,,,,,

Hi..going to seem like a stupid question as I have a 4T which I'm struggling with regards hot starting so have bought a second bike as per title which was delivered this PM. My question is I can't see a fuel tap (The fuel tank is under rear guard} in an obvious place!! Any advice guys? Thanks.....Pete.

Hi....looking at a 2014 st 300 as not getting on with my 320 4t. Any advice on known faults/problems with this model??? Thanks in advance....... Peter.

Goldfren for me every time.however when I had a 315 Mont with 2pot calliper the water treatment worked every time with the Galfers. Hope this helps.
