The last receipt with the bike was from Stan in the 90s so I took it back to him.

Wheres the column with the prices from Stans invoice Plans are white frame and same colour tank etc, it's never going to be the matching number as new so why try and make it be? I felt it best to remove the price from the invoice, one because I doubt Stan would be grateful and two it's a bit late for someone to tell me I could get item 17 12.5 pence cheaper elsewhere

I've heard from several people the allspeeds aren't favoured for the 375 as it's very highly tuned (according to Stan) and that the carbs will be quite a bit of hassle so they are going up for sale and new race pipes and new 28mm carbs are on order.
To note it had one side 4LO carb and the other side YPVS carb with the allspeeds so it potentially would never have run right anyway.

Hi The looms do look great, and I know they get good reviews from the guys that have seen them. Did you have to wait long for it, or do they hold a stock of them ? Dusty

Question about swing arm.
Would like to upgrade the swing arm bushes. Can I get it powder coated before changing them ? Thanks

Will you be fitting new plugs or using the originals?

Hi Yep, get your swingarm powdercoated first, making sure they mask the area of the bushes so you can fit the new ones easily Dusty
