Happy the 350 started 4th kick! I even checked the gears up to second and all seems to be in order. I checked the float height on both carbs and they were both the same at 24mms, so I will just have to see if it starts to leak fuel again. The right hand piepe was full of petrol and both crankcases were well full, so fuel had obviously leaked its way past the Reed valves and into the bottom end. I'll keep an eye on it. The attached picture is of base gaskets that I cut out of gasket paper, coz the ones that came from Norbo were too thin, this has an impact on the squish setting so you can't afford to mess with losing 0.2 mms!
The Triumph is slowly coming apart, the shopping list and chrome and paint list are getting longer.....
This blog has changed more to be about the bikes in my garage than racing, but hey, I will still be using the RD 350 YPVS and the RG500 on track!
