The sensible twin has made it to the garage where work sometimes happens. Plugs have been pulled so I can spin it over and check for spark. It doesn't spin easily. It's hard enough that I doubt I can spin it and check for spark at the same time. One lead disconnected from it's coil but that was the cylinder that looked like it had been running. Currently I have a couple of standard carbs plugged in. I know they work, just not very well. One has a slightly sticky slide. I'll have to borrow a kart starter from my mate. I should be able to turn it over with that and check for spark at the same time.

It's got a fair bit of compression but I was spinning it with a 2-speed 3/8 drill. How's it feel turning the outside flywheel by hand ?

It runs OK with stock carbs. It blips OK considering at least one slide is a bit sticky.
The ease with which I could start it with the kart starter has convinced me to modify my alternator cover to allow the same thing on my motor. I have no idea why I haven't done it before.

Well done. Still got the cam cover leak ?
Bucket Racer/Crasher
Not sure. There is a slight leak but my suspicion is that it is from the area around the left crankcase cover plate. I need to run it for a bit longer and really clean it first.

One of the things I didn't get round to was a couple of dummy cam caps that the side plate could be screwed to. No positive clamping on the plate above barrel level. Suspect it isn't flat enough to seal on the cam cover end.
