Assuming it's the reg/rec causing my problems, if I unplug it and recharge the battery, should the bike run ok? (at least until the battery voltage drops)

Thanks as ever

Got to be something to do with R/R or battery, its the only thing you changed , was running fine before setting off to Jamie s , dont care what the meter indicates, mine was the same symptoms and the multimeter said its cool but it wasn't new rr and battery back to normal just a thought Steve Yeah ...

Hi, 2 days ago my VTR was running fine (albeit on a paddock stand). Jumped on it early this morning to go to Santa Pod for some RWYB action and didnt make it out of the village.

of all the f-ing days...

Ironically I'm waiting for a mosfet r/r to drop through the post box.

Next year then guys!!

Well done Neil. That's the main maintenance tasks sorted (except maybe the rear suspsension linkage) now it's time to modify it to within an inch of it's life :thumbup: Haha yeah I've been looking on Ebay for some bits, but to be honest I'll probably leave the motor alone and just put on some light...

Oh and uk bikes don't have a D on the mixture screws so they are standard :-)

Nice one thanks!!

The carb screws aren't chewed up either so I reckon they're not messed with!

Bloody hell I'm impressed. Well done that man :clap: :clap: Go and get yourself a well deserved pint. :beer: Starter motor bolt is the only thing missing on that list. Quick clean up and some grease under the boot and you done. :thumbup: (:-}) Thanks :D !! Starter motor bolt and rear suspension lin...
