Name tag engineering do work on two stroke engines, their work on the Leader/Arrow engines is said to be good. They may be able to machine the journals/shafts to fit the smaller bearings but I think the only way be get the required accuracy is to split the assembly and machine the shafts separately....

Hello Roger, Thanks for the information re Rockrome. The last jounals I had done were by Beckett and Gardiner in Sheffield,before they were taken over/ close down.

I've heard of the heal tightening before Terry h...

Hi John, I was replying to the last post but also had in mind the earlier replies to you. Aspen fuel is mainly used by gardeners it has a long shelf life and gives off far less fumes, I found it good to start the Arrow I only use occasionally but it is very expensive. I like the pressure/vacuum test...

The compression does seem to be low but I've had a bike with similar compression after a re-ring and it started OK and the compression eventually increased to a normal level. ( on one engine I used Aspen fuel after a rebuild and it started more easily than normal ) The primary compression ( crankcas...

Hi, The 17'' rims bring a number of difficulties to be overcome. There may not be enough clearance between the tyres and mudguards , you might find there is just enough clearance The gearing will be too high in top gear ie. the engine will struggle to pull in 4th. The centre stand may need to be len...
