Hi All,
I know this has been discussed before and I am looking for a little clarification specific to my machines set up. I have repaired the exhaust lifter as discussed in a previous thread, thanks to all that replied.
I find that the bike will cruise really happily at 55mph and up to 60-65mph. If I roll on a little more throttle at the speeds mentioned it starts to feel like the bike is retarding. I am looking for places to start. The bike is running a little rich pulled plug after a good ride (not wide open cut).
Should I expect more speed or is this about right?
The bike is running the following:
Mikuni VM28
Mk3 cams
7.3 to 1 compression
NGK B6ES plug
46 tooth rear sprocket (if I counted right)
Lucas Magneto
Cheers,
Eugene.
