its a carb motor...im not going to track day it but i think a dry sump could be the next purchase. i have given it a service including new plugs (think they are diamond coated!!!!). she runs fine when warm and starts no problem. its just when i have left it for a few days.
ok...now im feeling real stupid....no comments from the back please!! who said CHOKE?..on closer inspection...ITS MISSING. anyone got a Choke Linkage
bar for a Honda Blackbird Motor!!!. could help a little with the cold start problems!!
sorry guys
Should start 1st time(ish) with full choke - bike engines 'like a bit of choke' (as some bloke once told me.)
