Re: 28 mm dellorto spit back

I have a 25 mil dellorto on a cast 230 and still massive amounts of spit back, how would you suggest rectifying this issue Minority? That would depend entirely on what was causing the spitback in your case. As you mention It's a 230 It would suggest boring and stroking so you probably have "no...

Re: 28 mm dellorto spit back

I'm surprised that nobody has commented on the fact that the 28mm carb is probably too big for a standard 200 cast barrel (even the Indian "stage four") and this won't help clean carburetion.

Re: Stopping panels falling off

What's the state of the panel buffer on the outrigger? If it's badly worn this can cause the panel to be loose.

Re: Gear Compatibility

Just be aware that the shimming may be different and that there is a considerable difference in the final drive ratio between the LI125 and the LI150. Dropping the front sprocket from 15 to 14 will give a closer match, but then you will have to consider using a pull down chain tensioner.
