    Marzzochi Forks

    What is considered the best set up for these forks ? At present running 220ml of TQF (approx7w)and works OK, but open to suggestions. I weigh about 13 stones. The fork caps have a screw at the bottom, presumably to release pressure but seized solid at present, don't remember them having this, is it a modification ? Thanks Ross
  2. Like the rack, I'm using a Sharan and thinking of making something similar. Did your rack lock into the seat mountings ? Thanks Ross Looking again at the pictures I think I can see the answer, the rear mount pivots and is then locked with a nut and bolt ?
  3. Good to know a Scooby is faster than a Rover Vitesse !

    SWM Exhaust Back Box

    If you cut a SWM back box vertically and long ways, the bit nearest the wheel is a series of baffles. The outside doesn't appear to be connected at all, whats that all about, eh ?

    Alternative points

    Hi James In my experience the points either work or don't, thought it might be worth lubricating the pivot in case they are sticking as they get hot. I would change the plug and condensor if you haven't already. You going to Scottish Classic on Saturday ? Ross
  17. Your better building it from angle as you can paint it properly, box will rust through from the inside.

    Primary chain

    FWIW I replaced a duplex primary chain on a B40 after 20 years (no expense spared) Compared the old one with the Renolds replacement, not a mm of a differance. Has always been run in TQF.

    spark loss

    Check that the breather is fitted, and take it up under the tank. I also put a smear of silicon on the flywheel cover face, try these and you shouldn't have to clean the points every time.
