Managed to get the crank lined up after some persuasion with the hammer. Didn't go mad at it but just using its own weight the hammer was able to get the crank seated right and equal distances on each side. Many smiles and sighs of relief after that one. Have moved onto getting the last of the frame pieces off before sending away for painting. The suspension linkage had a similar problem to the swingarm in that the internals appeared to have just welded together with corrosion. After a bit of headscratching ( and breaking a chisel trying to beat the bolt out!) I grabbed the angle grinder and convinced the linkage to change its attitude. Great success and a pretty neat job if I do say so, problem is now I'm down a linkage and need to source a replacement. Keeping an eye on eBay but nothing looks great atm. Anyone happen to have a spare? Only thing left to get is the lower race bearing in the headstock then time for shiny new frame

Check engine bolts around the frame if they come loose it will make the bike vibrate

@NosmokeNopoke Use JT's webby for a guide, click on the Full gear ratio chart to determine whether you want more top end or faster acceleration and choose the sizes according to your desires; http://www.jtsprockets.com/catalogue/model/2631/

Is it a new plug? Drain the carb and check fuel is it the carb

@NINJA not that I recall.

If you're pinning the P/V open, just remove the servo and wires.

@sward Glad your now sorted, post some pics or a vid of the bike running dude!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@Calum The servo still moves it when the ignition turn on however the powerband opens up earlier than usual.

Only kidding, no need to polish, just make sure its clean of deposits and carbon

@Minia hi I’ve now got a spark, it was the pick up coil. Now the bike won’t start. Cleaned carb, checked reeds, checked compression(reading 100ps) Wondered if the timing might be out? Does an occasional backfire but nothing else

@Blaze-Vile Sounds like it could be an electrical fault. Check CDI, Coil, Spark Plug, HT Lead etc. Air box isn't restricted. Air filter clean from debris etc?

@NINJA I'm not sure but I could have sworn that the X forks were shorter not longer but like anything in life I could well be wrong!

@AndyJay that would give you a 12.5 weight - I'd stick with stock unless the springs are too bouncy for you and some stiffer springs if you're larger than an average rider

You cant buy the foam part of the filter holder separately from Yamaha unfortunately but can get some from a hobby shop and cut / glue that in instead
