Hi WayneThe Champion plugs are number; UG80PV, keep an eye on the length as they are longer than the NGK PLUGS, Bit of info ref NGK plugs. After a Mallory post tt event I had an over heating problem, it was something call a hot summer, remember them? Any how to the point, I found that all 4 plugs ha...

Hi JBThanks for the info, I have slaved it, pushed it, kicked it, shouted at it, crept up on it, asked it nicely! But after being stood for some time it’s a pig! The answer is I suppose just keep it running every week. Also fitting one of the F1 rear fitted battery trays my help as I could fit a big...

Hi Wayne and all. This is some thing I have been thinking about for some time now, not so much the plugs but some thing that seems to be an issue with the RCW motor ie race housing with porting and NGK or Champion plugs. Something that my bike seems to suffer from when it comes to starting. Point 1,...

First off apology’s for the rather short initial advert, I started off with a full out line of the bike but it has gone of somewhere in to the ether!

David all good points, and a good artical, as for buying a racing RCW i think it would cost about £30,000 for the one i have, and Wayne is correct, to build one would cost at least £20,000 IF you can find the parts, just not about any more, it 20 odd years since the JPS Norton days, it long gon, sha...

Malc has very good point, there will come a time that the market value of the rotary bike (Norton) my well drop due to the ageing populas of the motorcycle world as it will shift from the classic type bike as we see it, Norton, BSA, Triumph etc. The jap classic group is very large at the moment and ...

Interesting ebay, i remember an F1 motor for sale in about 1995-6 it had no bids and sold for £450.00 with 1 bid. When the motor was collected i was offerd 2 more at the same cost, i did not take them as i had no need for them. I sold the one i had 2 years later for only £600.00 via ebay, i should h...
