Ah... ok. That’s a better search, thanks.

So although it will never win anything in a beauty contest, my 3yf is going well and I’m really enjoying it as my daily ride. If it were a couple of inches shorter I would be ecstatic...I will look at options here... but this post is to ask where people get the ‘metalastic’ type rubber mounted ...

Just before you strip it down... how are you testing the cylinder pressure? Surely at pre- starting rotational speeds the auto exhaust lifter/ decompressor is operating?

Is the screen common to both the single ...

Mezo.

Thanks, I’ll give these a go.

I’ll be using the bike for some long-ish rides (200 miles) and am considering a screen to reduce buffeting at higher speeds on motorways etc. Firstly, does anyone have any feedback on currently available screens for the 3yf... and also, is there compatibility with the twin headlight models?

So this week, almost a year since I found that the ‘project’ XTZ that I bought needed a new gearbox, I finally got around to fitting the rebuilt engine. Today was to be the post-rebuild, maiden (hopefully 5 geared) voyage.

I live on the edge of Dartmoor in Devon and I rode up to Princetown in ...

Gaskets sets should fit all years with the 5 valve head, the only differences in the engine are a taller 1st gear & a blanking plate on the later 4MY model which has an electronic tacho (blanking plate instead of tacho drive unit).

That's good to know. I can get on with it now.
