Title: Re: comments please Post by: Olds on September 26, 2016, 10:37:18 AM Nice one Mike. With that swingarm I'd be inclined to build it flat tracker style (minimal work required). Looks like you need a loom, lights, seat and horn. Does it kick over OK or are you soaking the bores prior to trying ?

bores have been soaked and she,s been turned over with plugs out all valves have been checked and all is ok,, tank has been power washed out and carbs soaked for a while then stripped and cleaned ,,(what a job ),, clean fuel in a test tank and she,s run very briefly, then she tried to break my leg and chuck me over the bars,,, (and i split me best work pants :-[ :-[ ),, :-[,i,m to old for this game :-[ :-[ any body got a starter motor for it ??? |
