Setting Up a Standard PX200 Carb

Bought a low mileage PX200 engine a while back and have fitted it into a Sportique frame. I had to change the carb body for a shallower early type one to get it to all fit in. I've disconnected and blocked up the autolube and am now just trying to set the carb up. It starts ok but seems to be runnin...

Re: Front hub nut??

some models use a castellated nut on the front and some don't - depends what it is ? assuming the assembly is correct behind, the nut you have is not correct - if you put a split pin through it will be useless. it appears that you need a normal deep nut, a castellated cover and split pin. I think y...

Re: Front hub nut??

I bought a complete set of forks including front hub and everything from India. It was fully assembled and have just got round to fitting the front hub?

Standard TV200 performance tweaks?

My mates got a standard TV200 and was wondering if there's any simple carb/exhaust tweaks which might give any benefits without going down the route of fitting a kit or anything, want to really maximise the TV's performance whilst keeping it mainly standard.
