The spring should keep it up, requires a bit of effort, but not hernia inducing.

Would you have to change regulators ??

If they told us they would probably have to kill us !

Just to add fuel to the fire - http://www.robedwards.com/2007/09/115-million-han.html Who's money is it that supports landowners ?

An explosion in a wire wool factory, if it's anything like under my kilt !

Take the bash plate off and see if the crack narrows, a bent plate might be part of the problem. Hopefully.

I dont know one way or the other, but I would question the point of having the services of Mr Bou, if you have nothing to sell !

Cant take credit, Andy Johnstone's the man who told me. I do love simple/effective solutions. Ross

I thought you had "quite" an imagination ?

"North Derbyshire Youth M.C.C. has been forced to cancel Lee Jeans Cup Trial, at Victory Quarry Doveholes Nr Buxton on Sunday 29th January due to the unfortunate circumstances where all the organisers have found it impossible to attend due to a variety of reasons. This was at some stage bound to have happened, as the members running the Club, affectionately we hope, known as ‘the last of the Summer Wine Group’ are finding it difficult to keep up with every day happenings. The Club are now desperately looking for persons to take over part if not all the running of the Club for it to survive."

Hi jumbostu, tell all about electronic ignition. Didn't think there was one commercially available ? Ross

I got these fork springs from In Motion Bultaco for my Marzocchi forked SWM, so depending on your weight should be fine. (13stone) Defiantly better than 20/30 yr old ones !

Or you might find it easier to get a channel over the sprockets as there isnt much room for a straight edge. Look here http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/hardware/ironmongery/sheet_metal___tubing/-specificproducttype-steel_hardware

Age less important than condition, best bike to buy is owned by a mature rider, generally.

What happens to the old frame ?

Yes join black cables together to miss out old condensor, use existing black wire that comes out grommet at back of cylinder and goes through plastic sheath, where it would previously just gone to coil join in new condensor, as you say mounted by coil. Job done. (and make sure wire by flywheel cant touch anything)

Plug gap about 25 thou. Yes to how you adjust timing, though not that critical. Timing mark on casing at about 11, by screw hole, and faint mark on fly wheel is there if you look, hard. To connect an external condersor, disconnect existing and remove or isolate, join wires together, pref solder and insulate. Mount a new condensor by coil and connect black wire. I use a VW one from Euro car parts which has 2 connectors and a bracket which makes it easy. If you want the part no ask. Bultaco UK also do one thats suitable. Martin seems to spend a fair bit of time away so not always an instant answer.

You need one of these to kick start stops the case getting damaged again :- http://www.motoswm.com/

Hi Billy I'v seen road reports of a diesel engined bike a few years ago, can't even to begin to imagine a trials one. Ross
