Hi All,
I'm a newbie to the forum and would appreciate some assistance. Some time back I acquired a 650S which I am now renovating and would like to know more about the bike. The engine serial number is 3885 and appears to be an early model as it is kick start only. The manual I have shows the ignition system on the left hand side with the points behind a removable cover whereas mine is on the left hand side and the complete cover has to be removed to gain access. Anybody have any info on timing etc for this model. It is a pig to get started and I suspect the timing is out. I have fitted a pair of Bosch GT40T sports coils to boost the spark.
Any help/suggestions would be gratefully received.
Cheers,
Grant
PS I also have a Quattro 500 in bits which was imported from the US, but that's another story...........
