FAQ \ Guides for important matters ?
« on: 29.06. 2013 10:53 »
Maybe time for a FAQ section for fault tracing, repair, adjustments, containing 'authoritative' and well proven guidance. Things like this comes to mind:

mag\ignition\timing
tappet clearance
crank endfloat
charging\electrical testing
clutch adjustment
brake adjustment
etc

If of interest, name the areas that should be covered.

Thanks

Excellent idea, all of those mentioned plus:
oil (might be a big one *smile*)
getting it on the centre-stand
modifications and upgrades, e.g. TLS, oil pump, clutch, bearings etc or perhaps include a separate bit under each main section

Yep - good one, lots of info here that could be easier to get to
All the best - Bill
1961 Flash - stock, reliable, steady, fantastic for shopping
1959 Rocket Gold Flash - blinged and tarted up  would have seizure if taken to  Tesco

 Not a bad idea. It could get to be a very long list. The first post of each section should be the Service Sheet.

Very good idea. Some subjects turn up here and are repeated often.
