    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi every one
started to rebuild / clean my bs / cv carbs and found that there were some things missing. needle valve seat filters was the main one .Are they needed ??? Pilot screw had been chewed up by the bloke i bought it from so i will have to replace it . There were no aluminum caps covering the pilot screws so i think they must have been removed and after market pilot screws fitted. the pilot screws are 27.5 mm long , the ome ones are 22 mm long . I think they will fit but will sit lower down the tube. Any thoughts would be great .

The filter screens aren't necessary. Some bikes had them and some didn't.

The aluminum caps over the idle mixture screws are also not necessary -- they're only there to keep consumers from tampering with the settings.
