    Head Light Problems....

    The high beam switch is on the left side of the steering column. You can see it when you look down the column. The circuitboard is the high beam indicator next to the tacho ans speedo. Begin with the switch that could be the problem. Greetings Peter

    Question: Correct Configuration for Spreadbore?

    Only way to check this is with a A/F ratio meter or on a dyno. But i would say carbs always need to be tuned to the specs of your engine to get the best out of it. Greetings Peter
