Re: 30 mm Dellorto ok for a TS1.

What carb settings are you guys using? i have just built a std TS1 top end with LTH manifold and 30PHBH (MJ 140, P 55, Slide 40, Av266, X13 2nd clip, 300 float valve) with a Fran Supertourer. So far seems to run ok, just need to get some miles on it before taking to the dyno for setting up. Andy

Re: Jumping out of third gear..................

Sounds like the selector spring, I had the same thing after a new build with all new parts. As soon as the power kicked in it would jump out of 3rd, replaced it with an uprated one from MB and it cured it.

Re: Supertourer port timings

Special X and Eden, thanks for the comments. I have just acquired a TS1 kit so will fit that instead of the iron barrell but will keep this just in case. Andy

Re: Pinking

Try lifting the needle one clip or try a X13 needle to richen it up. I take it you mean it won't idle below 1400 rpm?

T5 barrel lining

The piece is about 4x5mm in size, question is does he run it as is or have it plated or upgraded? What does it cost to have a barrel replated? ...

Re: Anyone use a Trail Tech speedo on their Lammy?

I use one, they do a universal fitting one I believe, it may be worth giving them a call and see what they can do for you.I have dealt direct with them and had good service from them.
