Yay, clutch working. Sounds good for a 660cc twin!

So thanks to keiths nippleless bleeding got the clutch working fine. Had to start it , stick it in gear and stab the back brake with it on the centrestand of course and it works great. Only about 10mm of freeplay at the lever. Lighter to pull in than I remember the 750! But not as light as the beemer by a long way. So it should do well for my left hand strength, pity I don't use it as much as the right!!!

But I am sure it's working on 2 cylinders only. Time to drain the carbys etc blah blah. Will first work out which cylinder is not working. The fuel lines are really hard and quite tight, looks like they've been shortened a few times. Will replace them all tomorrow and add little filters.

Will pull the sparkplugs to see which cylinder is off.

Getting there!!


 
You could also check to see that the slides are all lifting with your finger. The slide lifting cable sometimes slips out of the top of the slide on assembly.
 
inline fuel filters very often restrict what is only just about acceptable flow at 3/4 to WOT.

Check your coils not the wifes,I changed mine to some VFR ones from Motoplats sure its better but my cylinder fault turned out to be a duff brand new plug.

I usually find it's down to stuck float valves. After a bit of a layoff, I give the float chambers a light sharp tap with a screwdriver handle or similar before I start up... I think Steve B recommended it, so works for me!
