Buying an A10 or A7 - Pros / Cons..?

[Fredl]

Holy Moly she's home...and what a bike! Started first kick and had first ride out on her through Hertfordshire countryside this evening, pulls great and stops too (bonus!) - just a slight issue with carb flooding (float sticking..?) after I'd stopped for 1/2 hour and then tickled with petrol pissing out - seemed to 'right' itself though, started after few mins. Might dismantle and check all well in there.

Can't wait to go out again...brilliant - GRIN..!!!!

Wishing you many miles of smiles.

My float needle sometime sticks when tickling and I just turn the tap off until the engine is running. The vibration then keeps the needle seated so it doesn't flood when running.

Beware if you take the carb down, some new gaskets catch on the float, just a thought. Hitchcock M/C'S will post the parts overnight, see their website.
