This little bike is mainly used during the colder months when others are put away. What that means is every summer it comes part for a good cleaning and service. This year that took a little longer as in sorting out the jetting, new ACOV diaphragm and new choke it produced a bad stutter around...

Trying to remove that bitch of a front left plug, I yanked on the HT lead to remove the spark plug cap but ripped the lead clean out, leaving the spark plug cap firmly stuck over the spark plug. Eventually managed to wiggle it out but it...

I posted a few days back about seized chokes and starting my RD04 with easy start. Started no problem, got it to work, stripped off the tank and panels and as I fiddled about the chokes freed; typical, but I took them to bits, fitted new cables and everyting is hunky dory, a typical AT job, faff...
