Okay. I think I'm going to have to rebuild the head then.

I'm having timing or leak problems with the head. The carby keeps back firing when revving and when I give it some throttle it just decelerates. Does anyone have any pictures of their timing at TDC so i can check it with mine? Also not sure if it is the inlet valve leaking :/

Thanks! A little bit of composite fibre goes a long way ;)

Thanks, yeah those pics don't include half of the resto either! I had the front drum brake machined so the pads seated better. It was fairly horrible because it had been sitting for over a year. Stops almost as good a my disk brake bike now.

Mate this thing looks awesome! It makes me want to pull the head of mind and change the piston and drill the oil feed. It would compliment my tm33 perfectly!

Just an update on my progress. The seat I got from ebay my friend! Soo I have been busy between uni, work and this project over the last few months and now the bike is almost ready for roadworthy pending wiring and carby tuning. I will start here with the front forks. When I got the bike and...

A few electronic parts have arrived. I just have to wire in the starter solenoid and see if she kicks over. Not before a once over though. I also have to source a few bolts that aren't fitting correctly around the engine casing.

How awesome are the 12 gauge igniters for shock to caps! And that speedo has potential. By the way cosworth what ignition coil are you using? I need one and I'm not sure what to get

Has anyone found the last few pages of chapter 3? This would be very helpful!

Thanks for the help! Though I am in Australia ;) so postage would be astronomical! I will try and source stuff locally...hopefully. This is my first adventure into modifying motorcycles too. Any tips for a motorcycle noob?

Wow your sr250 looks awesome!

My new little Mikuni!!
