    Building a Ec 300 From Scratch

    when I got my bike the forks tops were flush with the top yoke, if you push the forks up through the yokes you get faster steering at the expense of stability, Ive ended up bang on those little marks you mention, makes sense to me!

    what would you do?

    well it was a happy(ish) ending race was yesterday bike wouldn't start off the line initially got it going managed about 1/2 mile of rough running and it cut out completely, took an hour to get it back to the pits where I found a bit of dirt had become wedged in the spark plug!

    what would you do?

    well that's a tricky one as I had been messing with jetting thinking that was the problem with performance for a fair while. that was also in the autumn temps about 15 degress C and now its around freezing. when I took it apart I found it had the not well liked n1ef in clip 4! when I put the JD...
