I always put in 380mm when its totally empty. Little below the glass. Too much is not good imo.

2bbikes.com has plenty older parts

and where are you?

On a 4 stroke there should not be oil near the sparkplug, so that should not make a difference. Otherwise you have bigger problems than a faulty plug. On a 2T it definitly makes a difference.

Renthal (and other brands) have bars in various sizes. You can also use risers, or add blocks underneath the current risers and longer bolts.

Both secondary axle bearings are shot. Got them new, tonight put it back together!

A piece of soldering tin in a loop will work fine to measure the squish. Just put it in the cilinder through the sparkplug gap, and let the engine turn a round.

A lot of people, especially in the UK mount flywheel weights, extra gaskets etc. this will definitly help (however probably be expensive?). The bike can be a powerhouse if needed, and otherwise be a little bit grippier and less powerfull.

I would aim for around 1mm, but it also depens on your liking. I think I normally use 0.8 gasket

Still havent found the problem, but rehaul is decided. I am now pretty far in taking it appart so can better finish the job! Only did not have my puller here, so need to wait to see the real problem!

Saw some prety good underwater action pictures. Only the helmet was sticking out, lol.

Did not realise it could be a 200. Also depens on the year. But on all 250's + flywheel weights are additional, just with some bolds.

And the two are quite different bikes. FOr beginners and old skool type riding the older model is better (and almost indistructable), the newer is lighter and more agressive (but needs more money for maintainance and parts).

Yes its additional

Too bad made the clutch spot on still problem. So engine is out, will disassemble tomorow and see whats wrong...

Is it with a system where you need to press a small bowl 10 times before starting?

I like the simples places the best. Just a square of carbon, or a aluminium plate with carbon foil. Five holes, 4 to mount with tiewraps, and 1 for the brake line. (and additional one for a clamp for the score card).

Ok, ill check it out. Only had 1 time rubing, and this was because I was beeing sleepy and did the clutch wrongly. I had the fingers on the wrong place I will check in later again with the answer.

The ''cap'' of the slave cilinder is inbetween. I am going to fix it, also to make sure this does not cause it, and because it needs to be correct anyhow. And if it solves it, I dont have to take it appart. Only strange thing is it did work before without this sound, but the places could have swelled, I think I did redo the waterpump, but I can check that in the log file.

On my second bike (spares, project, something bike). I bought it with the main bearing of the clutch worn. Replaced it, checked everything and build it back together. At first start it seemed ok but shut off (probably because of oil during mounting of the cilinder etc). Second attempt the kickgear broke (the footrests had been welded up, and the kickstarter could get caught in it). Bought the part, needed it for another bike, took some while. Drank some beers, lived my life, Couple of years later, bought a new gear and mounted it, started it, and a strange sounds occurs. In neutral there is no real problem, but when put in gear and clutch released a strange noise occures. Its like a rubbing, almost like rubber against steel (but less squeaky) not real scraping or something. I cant figure out what it can be. Had the clutch side everything loose and remounted no difference. I do notice some sound from the gearbox when I turn it by hand, but I think its always like that. I would like to figure it out before dismounting the engine (again), but I am affraid thats the only solution (and it keeps you busy). One more thing I noticed the clutch pack is quite far off (fingers like 20mm) but I cannot think of a reason why it would make this noice). And it used to work...

Its only a sensor for the fan. IMO if the fan does not work, or the waterpump doesnt, it would overheat quite fast standing in your garden. You can check if the fan turns at the moment its trowing out coolant. But I think all the suggestions have been given so check it all out. Headgasket Leak in radiator (but would cause dripping somewhere) Faulty radiator cap Waterpump (leaking waterpump would not cause overheating) Fan not working propperly (maybe try to measure the voltage of the system) Thermo switch.

Order yourself a coffee mug! (ok its a pen holder )

BTW I had a similar problem once, a rock sat inbetween the swingarm and the engine, and made it impossible to move the swingarm in the good spot. LOL
