Hey up Andrew , ive had it firing on a bit of easy start now so just gonna clean tank out and fire her up on premix,
then i will clean out oil tank and prime pipes etc , maybe next winter i'll strip her and redo frame as its scruffy in
places but for now just a real good clean new tyres as what i believe are the original gold seals are cracked on sides
and bald on rear , then a new seat from Morretti Ltd as the original is past its best sadly . All in all im pretty happy
with it for a blind buy of ebay :)

Bill, hi
Re the 900RS, really like the bike - looks great with a nice balance of power, brakes handling etc, only negatives for me are fast idle which is way too intrusive, and a very abrupt initial throttle response: but I suppose you get used to it. You pleased with yours ?

Cheers Tim

Yep luv it although it doesn't get ridden enough due to having so many bikes but i've sold half a dozen now
so hopefully get some mls on her , same as you with throttle although someone on here says theres a cure
available :)

Hi Bill,

Where do you find all these nice projects? Have you got a “project tree” which grows them for you?

I’m envious for sure as I’m looking for something two stroke at the moment!

The F came is two very nice colours, the Candy Sky Blue and the Candy Yellow (Brown) either looks good on a Triple.

Owned two H1''s and a H2 and I'd take an H1 every time. They're still mad as a box of Frogs, but in a way that makes you giggle, not pi55 you off.

Enjoy.

like it , I have an F and and a E and I prefer them to the 750 , both rubber mounted engines nice and smooth and you can drop the clutch from a standing start from the red line and nail to 110 , its managable - try that on the 750 it becomes a hand full and it feels like a pneumatic drill. With regard to the colour its correct but Im not sure its candy sky blue , despite what the internet say - RB t?

H1 has been treated to a new fuel tap and front master cylinder id got on stock which id refurbed a while ago
had a quick spin up and down the cul de sac posh name for dead end in my opinion smoked like a proper 2 stroke
much to my Mrs Bouquet neighbours disgust ,Registration application sent off so fingers crossed it'll be sorted by
time were allowed out to play reminds me must get onto tyretec for a pair of tyres :)
