SpeedStar@arnowi oh man this looks like a fun project!
I'm kicking myself I didn't take pictures of the DT when she was in this state.
This will be an awesome ride 👍
@SpeedStar
I don't know; every screw I loosen I fear I'm causing irreversibele damage. 😅
It's not really fun to ride atm because it's hard to get started, won't keep running unless I keep full choke on and (therefore?) idles in too high rpm. Also tyres feel like slicks.
I don't know anything about cleaning and tuning carburetors but I'll learn. Should've done this years ago.

@arnowi sounds like she is a bit out of tune. Carbs are not too hard, a rule of thumb is to bring the mixture screw out 1.5 turns and work from there. Should run and you should be able to bring that idle down nicely.
Tyres I can't help with, everyone has their own preference! (Avon and Continental for me)
The bike is awesome though, keep going 👍😎
@SpeedStar
Thanks. It's what I first learnt to ride with over 20y ago under the watchful eye of my dad. Discovered many long forgotten paths in the mountains with it and I miss being able to do that.

@arnowi that's fantastic, what an absolute treasure to have. She will be running perfectly soon I'm sure👍
