I did my bikes the same as Ricky, but without the marigolds. And a long 7mm socket so you have something good to grip onto.

I bought flexi screwdrivers etc but the carbs are that sensitive even the slightest pressure on the adjusters made the bike rev

I did mine without the marigolds , using a 7mm socket held in my teet h and whilst learning colloquial russian from an old Coassack...



I tell a wee fib...I have never used the gauges..and it sounds like a right ballache! How do you access it if you run a carb tray?

Balance without, then refit tray

but does that not throw the delicate balance out -if you don't get the same seal and the carbs get twisted and so on?

I thought that it was quite delicate..

You can borrow mine, if I ever get it back from the lad on here I loaned it to.

Thankyou, will take you up on that if you get it back

Wasn't me...so name and shame!

Hi, I've got a Morgan carb tune you can borrow. Don't think I've got the adapters for the NC though. Although there are some bits in the bag side pocket. It's in Derby so close to you. I'm in Glasgow until Friday but there's someone at workshop from 8 until 5ish. I'll be back Friday night. I've got a 90 deg screwdriver as well. Let me know if you want to borrow it.

That would be brilliant. I don't need it immediately so if you could possibly check the adapters you do have whenever you can, might be in luck with the right one

Thanks in advance
