Re: Help! SIP Road 2 Fitting.

Recently fitted one on my P2 and had the same problem, I cut the cage off and had to elongate the holes to get a bolt through, worst than that though, my new SIP 2 came with a hole in it, I email SIP over a month ago but have had no reply, they appear to be cocking a deaf un.

How much play did you have on the crank, side to side & in and out.

Dellorto Si 24/24 help please.

On other forums iam reading conflicting information, iam running lean at 1/4 throttle and iam changing idle jet to try and correct, some have told me I wont be on the main at 1/4 throttle so the idle jet is the way to go, others tell me that on this carb the main jet is used all through the rev rang...

Re: Killing spark plugs ...why ??

Just as a guide, i use Nippon Denso 27 [which is a NGK 9] in my RB and would in any engine thats run hard, i even used a 31 for a while to see if it oil,d up at low speed, which it didnt. In my Mugello i use a Denso 24, same as a NGK 8.

Yep, that would be my guess, come across this a couple of times on mates scoots, borrow a working stator off somone to try.
