    would you have the Electrex  part no. for that please ?

    my own Beamish has its original ignition components, but they are all looking a bit frail ,

    and I expect its only a matter of time before the ignition plays up

    Try the owners club, they have a good total setup for sale.

    I believe my 74 TY still has the original reeds...is it advisable to change them for the reason stated? and is it usage or simply the passage of time that would necessitate their replacement?  thanks always, i learn so much here :)

    I would and did with my 38 year old Beamish Suzuki. 

    I went for hytech reeds in mine and at just £14 it was a no brainer. In fact they are for a ty250 as no one makes them for the Beamish and as the Beamish Reed block is almost a direct copy of the TY Reed block they are bolt straight in.

  6. How old were the stock reeds. If there old as in from back in the day. Then it's wise to get rid of them anyway. 

    If they fail because of age they will take the piston n barrel with them. 

    At least if the fibre reeds fail they will do no damage.
