Thanks Aging Rotarian
Thanks for the help. Yes it is the Minimac. After spending two afternoons on my hands and knees I’ve sorted it at last.I said before the connectors are Bullit. Fitted by a previous owner. I changed these for the smaller Japanese ones. They are better than the blue ones. She ...

At the moment I have a flashing red led when the engine is stationary and when cranking. A big white spark from both plugs which is quite powerful as I have just had a belt from it! What is the function of the relay?

Hi Roy. It’s not firing at all. Plenty of vapour comming out when looking for a spark.i was wondering if the relay has dirty terminals would that give a lower voltage/ amps to the coils that producing a poor spark? So new relay on the way! How many earth points are on the bike any ideas ? That’s ...

Yes please if theses are still available?

I’m having problems trying to start my Classic. It’s been dormant over the winter. It rode into the garage,but will not restart. I’ve replaced the plugs,leads, and plugcaps. I was getting a green led on pressing the button, with a red flashing on cranking. After cleaning all the connections I now ...

Sounds familiar to me. Try checking the connection that’s hidden behind the left foot rest plate. Mine came adrift and I lost all sparks.just a thought.

All I want to do is purchase a gallon or two of Rotela. But I can’t seem to get anyone’s attention. So how do I go about getting some ? Mick

If this is still ongoing I would like to put my name down for a rear light set for a Classic. Mick M

Well John I just hope your correct. It’s ok now although it did cause me some concern at the time.

smoky Air cooled can anyone throw some light as to why my Classic should decide to imitate a Ariel Arrow. She suddenly started smoking badly .

I see that H&H have a Blue Commander up on their March sale. It looks very smart. Is it a known bike ? As I may well be in the market for another one to replace my old one. Which as usual I should never have sold. Mick

Just bought another bike. An Yamaha SR500 from 1980 from it's first owner. 10.000 miles. As it had stood for a while, the petrol tap started leaking as soon is i put petrol in the tank. So i bought an petrol tap overhaul set from Yambits. Looking at the new parts they looked exactly the same as my ...
