MC, welcome.

:text-welcomewave:

There have been REAMS of discussion about that topic here. Avail yourself of the search function (upper right) and do a few searches and you will find a lot of good reading. Always the best place to start. I you have questions after doing a few search-and-reads, ask away.

Best,

N.

Well decided to send bike in for a carb clean. Idling good and runs without choke now. Still doesn't cold start as easy as I thought it would though. Also if the bike has run warm and I switch off and start immediately again I just get a click...swings better when cooled off a bit (starter solenoid maybe?).

Wow, you got your carbs cleaned and reinstalled in less that 6 days, in Cape Town??!! That has to be some kind of record. Bravo!
