Just had a heads up from Borut this morning he did apologise for not letting me know on recent emails that there is probably a 6 week waiting list from order date

@Michaelashbrook As others have said it doesn’t make any difference which hose goes where, and they’re not really needed in a country like the UK with mild winters. However they also serve another purpose which is to make the cooling system self-bleeding when refilling as the one on the thermostat housing comes out above the actual thermostat, so all you have to do is fill the radiator slowly and you end up with no trapped air (this is why bikes like the 350LC and a lot of MX bikes have bleed bolts on the head and barrel etc.). So it’s useful to just run a single hose from one banjo straight to the other and bypass the carb; you still retain the self-bleeding cooling system but it’s a lot easier to get the carb off for cleaning, jetting and float height changes etc.

@Michaelashbrook Doesn’t matter which side they go, as long as they run through. Is that what you were asking?…

@HOTSHOT III Yes bud I keep checking I’m really hoping that they don’t let me down the bikes all rebuilt and looking gorgeous just waiting on the zeeltronic had the choice to refurbish the original one when it got tested probably should of took the cheaper option lol

Is the early model tzr exhaust shorter than the others. I ve seen a giannelli on ebay for early models Not sure if it's my eyes but it looks slightly different

I work with an old boy an he says he had a wrangler dt when he was young Not sure if it was dtr or dt which I had asked more questions

Use Yamabond to seal the crankcase halves. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283564713529?chn=ps&_ul=GB&google_free_listing_action=view_item

If you hpi check it using the frame number it will tell you the reg. That's assuming it finds it

Yes that is the exact pipe Is it any different compared to the standard pipes

I crawled around the bike today trying to locate where the clatter came from, paying extra attention to the powervalve cap. Holding a screwdriver against various covers to feel vibrations. I am far from certain, but I think it is the water pump, actually. I might disassemble that and have a look later this week. Thank you both for the input!

The Mikuni 28mm that is fitted from factory is a very good and serviceable unit. Before replacing it, it is well worth giving it a refurbishment first. They're also becoming like hens teeth and as such is well worth keeping ahold of. I ended up going with a 32mm Dellorto VHSA that's found on the same engine which is fitted to the TZR Belgarda.

@Stevie-Wonder Saw this on Facebook, well done buddy Those Diversions are great bikes, back in the day they had a reputation for being reliable and doing everything well.

Aww, that sounds sick. I live near the Forest of Dean which I imagine would be endless fun of cycling round there. But I've never been as I don't have anyway to transport push bikes over to there (40 ish mile). That does sound like hard work though, just keeping the bikes riding nicely

Replacement

Unable to log back in had to set up a new account

I have tried another CDI still no luck. No servo cycle and no spark. I have tried three different stators and same result. Because the replacement bits I .trying are second hand I have now way of knowing if they are ok. Is there a way to work through the bots one by one. For example can I connect the servo to the battery somehow to see if it works? I can turn it by hand so it's not seized. I don't understand why servo and coil not working. Please help.
