Starting bikes

Mixed up some fuel, poured a couple of litres, into the Yam and Suz. 3 kicks on the Yam was enough to breath it into life and smell that two stroke aroma. Took it up the road just to make sure I could get through the gears and all was OK, the gear lever is a little high, but that will get adjusted as necessary at Nogaro next weekend.

I was kinda putting off starting the Suz, but everything worked fine, about 5 kicks was enough to charge the battery eliminator, and it started fine, running it up the road and what a difference the new clutch plates make - won't celebrate too soon, but it did seem like the dragging clutch has gone, and I could even get to neutral really easily - hope for the best. The Dzus fittings are a little fiddley but quicker than screws. Next week first race report!
