A after few days intensive fettle!
Wheel alignment
sorting out the mashed can
Staightening fairing brackets
Getting vinyls cut
Re-torque head (after a couple of test days following new valve)- only 1 bolt took a little
Valve clearences
All chassis bolts
Front sprocket
Got footrest bracket welded, and new ones coming from Alan stringer- ta!!
Oil and filter
Lockwire
Jet up the carbs- 125s in testing, ran nice but plug looked a bit lean, so have tried 130s (open carbs). At midnight last night, I wrecked the slipstream-modified rubber-bonded inlet tract. Gaaaah! So boshed on an old stock one- not ideal, but it won't be the reason I'm last!
Jeezuz! Looking at it, its a short list, how did it take 3 days?!?!?! Duff mechanic I reckon!
Still to do-
Re-mount the CDI unit, fibreglass up the fairing, and make good for race. Lick of paint, and paint some black number boards. Stick on logos. And Race!
Wish me luck!
