An important consideration is the disc/s is/are very close to the spokes on these older bikes. I tried to fit some modern Tociko's to my CSR1000 and there was NO way they'd fit :roll:

I RUN A 180/55 x 17 REAR, WITH A BILLET OFF-SET FRONT SPROCKET AND 630 CHAIN. THE OUTER CHAIN CASE COVER NEEDED A SMALL BIT OF FILING ON THE REAR EDGE WHERE THE CHAIN RUNS TO AVOID RUBBING. THE INNER GUARD PLATE CANNOT BE FITTED :wink: I've always been told not to reduce front sprocket too much, if ...

ACE Cafe 70's day 22 July

Who's up for this one then? (Come on Becker)
I believe early attendance is essential (9am?) to get in the carpark :shock:
Might do this one, only if weathers more on the DRY side (after this weekend - BUCKS).

These are older air cooled engines, and compared with newer water cooled bikes, do sound a bit mechanical :|
The cam chain shouldn't really rattle tho :!:
You running a standard tensioner (hope NOT) or a billet thing, like APE or ORIENT EXPRESS? Check it asap :wink:

Sounds more like a dodgy plug? If its an NGK, they seem to be iffy?
Swap 1 & 4, see if problem moves? If not, swap leads, they are both the same coil, so thats OK!
If its still No 1, carb could be flooding? Air screw out 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 turns.
