I'm not sure yet but I'm fairly sure its nothing major, dodgy coil maybe.

I qualified 3rd in class and rode crap in race one until I broke down on higgins.
I then stalled it on the grid (it was running a bit rough) and couldn't restart it so moved to the side, this was not allowed so I had to jump the wall and have my (now running!) bike scooted away by skunk. :crybaby:

Koba round 3
Great intro, made me want to read on.


I broke down.
A very easy to read middle section, no small talk just the facts.


Thats about it!
A perfect summary to end, once I started reading I couldn't stop till I was finished.

I'm a strong believer in K.I.S.S. and not the knights in satans service type.

MATE!!Its just as well you have so much bad luck,Otherwise you wouldnt have any luck at all!!As the late great Barry Sheene once said"If you had a duck it would drown".But that must surely be the end of it now and things can only improve.Ive found over the last 38 years,That youll have a run of lousy luck and just when youre ready too pull the pin and take up Badminton youll have a win and then you forget completely all the shitty things that have been holding you back.I know youve got what it takes,You know youve got what it takesSo get back too round 4 and prove us all right!!!

I've gone over it and cleaned all the electrical connections and checked the carb.
I have been trying to do more but I've been crook as fuck.

There is nothing obvious wrong with it which is good and bad I guess, it did have a shady looking connection or two and I'm hoping cleaning them up will have fixed the problem.

It needs a test run now to see if it is all good, if it isn't I'm going to have to start swapping parts.

Part of the joy is there isn't much to go wrong!
I know it isn't Mechanical all the uppy downy and spinnyspinny bits seem to be working nicely.
It has good compression, a new battery etc..
I'm fairly sure it ws a spark related issue and apart from waht I've already done all I can do is replace bits really.
I have a spare coil and black box so I will switch them around if it isn't going good now.

I may come asking if I get really stuck though!

Naa, If I didn't spend time fixing mechanical hiccups I would have to crash...

Most likely too be plug cap or coil its a common fault with the RGs and RGV s alike
