Hi Kjell, thanks for the kind words on the 907. Did you see my request for original brake pipes for the RD03 ?. I dont lkike the look/fit of the braided ones and have a contact that can make 100% original in every way rubber lines. I want to source some original ones so he can copy them. I dont know if anybody else would put thier lines back to original rubber ones if they could but i'd like to try to give Rd03 owners the option. I had a look on e bay throughout the world and there are a lot of bits in germany but annoyingly none of them seem to post to the uk Do you have any original front lines - fittings/rubber lines/metal line ?? I'll gladly pay you for them and i can get some new ones made. Thanks again Kind regards Ian
Hi Kjell, my e mail is ianholliday1@ntlworld.com I thought of something, when i pulled the carbs apart i didnt touch the air correction/mixture screw, then i thought that these were set to the original restricted inlets so surely these should be reset to match the new inlet rubbers ??. The screws were set at 2 1/2 for one side and 3 1/4 for the other compared to 2 1/8 base setting. i've just got a set of vacuum gauges so i can balance mine and set mixture. failing that i have off e bay for £25 a set of 4 coils (from an rd04 as the one i bought from honda superseeded to a 750 coil anyway. i also have a compression tester to check engine compression. failing all this i have roadkills carbs in front of me, he very kindly sent them to me to try, so i can try those and see if any of the above makes a difference ?? thanks again Kjell. i'll use your specs on my carbs and go from there. fingers crossed. thanks again kind regards Ian
Hi Kjell, thanks for all your help so far on my RD03.As you have probably seen i have a misfire at 5000 - 6000 rpm.I fitted a new airbox rubber as the old one was damaged and leaking air in. i really didnt want to start disconnecting cables and removing carbs then having them balanced etc etc. i was more than happy to run it for a year then completely strip it.I took the chokes out and theyre clean,the choke lever flicks back about 1/3 then you have to push it back the rest of the way, is this correct?. i was going to order the blanking caps off wemoto and eliminate the choke. next i thought it might be fuel pump not running right a high revs ??? My last resort is to take the carbs off remove the float bowls and see if there is any crap floating about in there ?? what do you think ?? which do you think its most likely to be ??? sorry to keep asking you but you seem yo know you RD03's. In one way i hope we never meet as i must owe you a lot of beers by now. thanks again Ian
