Carb replaced... ran better, but still not running right. Turns out the MSD dizzy had corroded, and the advance had become sticky. Timing all over the place at times, fine at others. Dizzy pulled, overhauled and back in. New carb dynoed.

After a frustrating few months chasing it, nice to have it running right again. Off to Eastern Creek last week and leaned on it. Photo's from WSID's website.

You forgot something .........
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

13.6@103mph. A little off the pace (13.2), but it had nearly 100kg of extra fuel-and-passenger ballast.

Sits nice on the strip Harv- low 13's I reckon is pretty impressive... I'd be stoked with that, good job!

Cheers, Melly
