Something like carb cleaner is better as more volatile. There are crank seals on both sides obviously, but as there is no excessive smoke you need to look at the flywheel side. Remove the cover and spray behind the flywheel onto / around the crankshaft.

Carb leaking is cured ? Assume it is as sounds like running lean. You have tried spraying brake cleaner or similar around carb, manifold etc ?

Your crankcase may be flooded in that case, this could also affect the plug. Kick it over plug out, fuel off, kill switch pushed. Give it a chance to dry out, then try with new plug. Your carb isn't one that you can put the floats in upside down ?

Have you tried a new plug ? Some " petrol " problems are actually ignition, just to throw another variable. What were you doing when the problem started ?

Aprilia's then swm's. That better ? ?

Thanks ? ?

Late swm's and twin shock aprilia's are actually the pinnacle, but fantic's are excellent stepping stones ?

The only way to get a test light to go off and on, rather than dim, is to isolate them. Reconnect them once timing has been set.

Alfredo has probably benefited from hrc's lack of vision ?

Never heard of that before, from what I could see you can't search by frame no ? Good tool but would it work for random searches? Come on @stpauls , you must have found your dummy by now ?

Is there a data base of stolen bike details to compare ? The original poster / key board warrior seems to have disappeared !

You can buy a lifetime supply of the proper tyre lube from a major tyre supplier for less than a tenner.

Bizarre comment ! Maybe you should check the definition of "forum" Edit on reflection, is this a snide/veiled accusation that I have stolen bikes / parts ? Very dangerous comment, presumably unintentional ? Clarification required.

Please read the whole sentence. "Australians write the numbers down, but do nothing with them " What does this achieve ?

@stpauls "do what "

Think this has been discussed several times, sticking point is always who is going to check the numbers, even on a random basis.

A friend had a Miller ty175 frame, couldn't keep the head stock attached to the rest of the bike ...

Did Sammy actually make anything, wasn't it all farmed out to the likes of Mike Whitlock ?

Go for it, they'll be to busy looking at the 38mm forks to notice ! ???

Apart from cosmetics, is fitting semi modern forks any worse than installing modern internals ? Or fitting a slight later engine worse than re-porting and fitting modern internals to exhausts ?
