After fitting the wisecos tried 115 mains and 17,5 pilots and while bike run OK plugs were whitish throughout t...

thanks for the info chrisu, I've passed it to my mate, I'm not familiar with FI but suppose it's on/off type

Mate is rebuilding his B1 and insists to keep it all original, but as in most the fuel injection keep playing up, he has tracked few problems and seems last suspect might be throttle position sensor. Anyone has one working for sale please?

That's all I needed Garn, thanks for the info, my search for Z900 rim continues than.

I'm looking for replacement rim and been offered one from a Z thou with rear disc brake. Are '76 Z900 and '77 Z1000 wheel rims the same /interchangeable ? Cheers

thanks a lot Gents, I'm starting to understand this coding system , mine front says 5L so rear would be the same I suppose. Would a combo of 75 and 76 wheels be still acceptable z/

Could you proud A4 owners let me know what's stamped on your rear rims please? I'm no expert andneed these age related numbers urgently, and there was a small arrow stamped if I remember right?
Thanks in advance
Tom

rim or complete wheel wanted preferably in vgc, money's not an object as it's been damaged by local garage and being replaced at their cost. Also could anyone confirm what exact markings are stamped on A4 wheel please as I haven't made a note?

Have one fitted over three years and goes fine, these are AGM so cope well with old type mechanical regulators and are truly maintenance free - no need to recharge every month or so.

thanks for the info, passed the links to mate, thought fairing brackets will be toughest bit to find so probably will make a custom set.

Friend of mine is looking for the rear mudguard (end bit not inner) , grabrail and Lawson fairing brackets, any condition and any money as these are apparently RARE parts, can pick up around London area.

these army Armstrongs look good, always had a soft spot for vintage enduro ,I've recently sold my WR and now working on this '80 DR400:: http://i548.photobucket.com/albums/ii345/klosswr450/DR400s_zpsfcd4202c.jpg http://i548.photobucket.com/albums/ii345/klosswr450/PICT2011.jpg

had the same problem, easily sorted:

Zed thanks for the info, I've seen your build thread and that looks quality,
do you think electric heat gun instead of baking will do the job OK? I can't bake the cases properly as I haven't opened them (seals/gaskets all in).

I'm about to spray my DR400 engine while it's in bits, is this Simoniz toough black good for air cooled cylinders? Couldn't see any info reg temperatures, not sure I'm looking at the right stuff ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-500-ML-SIMONIZ-TOUGH-SATIN-BLACK-SPRAY-PAINT-/310333023444?pt=UK_Body_Sho...
