December 8, 201114 yr Author What he is asking is "you did remove the factory pedal stops(metal things) as it tells you in the install instructions, did you not?" Did that. Phew, thought i had done it wrong for a moment
December 8, 201114 yr well done!! You should find a difference, cleaner at the bottom and revving out more.
December 8, 201114 yr Author well done!! You should find a difference, cleaner at the bottom and revving out more. Not goin to get a chance to see until a trial on Sunday, so I hope it's not radicaly different
December 8, 201114 yr Not goin to get a chance to see until a trial on Sunday, so I hope it's not radicaly different No it isnt, its like when you serviced a car back in the 80's, new points plugs condenser and it was the same motor but just sweeter all round, would like to hear your feedback. (i have been wrong before!)
December 8, 201114 yr The 80's were a blur to Drake You'll probably feel more of a difference when the bikes up to working temp John
December 8, 201114 yr Author The 80's were a blur to Drake You'll probably feel more of a difference when the bikes up to working temp John So were the nineties and naughties Will give feedback on these after the weekend. What are points
December 12, 201114 yr Author O.K my thoughts on the reeds. Firstly conditions yesterday were terrible, so not a good assesment, just my initial thoughts. Couldn't really tell how they were off the bottom as grip was non existant yesterday, but what i did find is the bike appears a LOT more powerfull up top. In fact the bloody thing caught me out a few times, and I managed to snap my front mudguard, when the bloody thing launched me skyward ( nothing whatsoever to do with rider error it was all the bikes fault honestly) I shall see how it goes over the next couple of weeks and see what I think then?

December 13, 201114 yr As stated! Try riding in second gear using the clutch to feel for traction, reguardless of rpm. They do still seem to have a pretty good midrange hit that you can learn to use to advantage when needed. If it is still too quick for you, might back off the timing just a bit.
December 13, 201114 yr Author Not really that much of a negative really, it's just the bike caught me out which it hasn't done for a while. Conditions were pretty bad on the weekend, so will have a better idea after this weekend, when I get to ride it on some familiar territory
December 13, 201114 yr .... the bloody thing launched me skyward ( nothing whatsoever to do with the bike it was all rider error honestly)
January 15, 201214 yr Author Just an update. Have to say the bike is now buttery smooth on the bottom. Boyesens have made the bike , going to go with better as I can't quite think of the correct word. So better it is. Now how can I get the weight down to that of a 125
