BEEN HELPING CLUB MEMBER ANDY FROM CHESHAM.
HIS KH250 WAS VERY FLAT!!
AFTER DOING ALL THE USUAL SERVICE ITEMS IT STILL WOULD NOT GO!
THEN HAD A THOUGHT!
LETS REV IT HARD!
FOUND IT PICKED UP AT 8,000 AND WANTED TO GO BEYOND 10,000!!
LOOKED INSIDE TO DISCOVER SOME RATHER LARGE EXHAUST PORT WORK.

SO GOT A FEELING SOME TUNED BARRELS MIGHT BE UP FOR SALE AS HE WANTS IT STANDARD.

That was probably me. Rode through Chesham 3 times last week on the way home from work. H1d with Higgspeeds and one very careful rider :)

Aha ..it was there were you heard me...well once you are over the mini round about ,Chesham town ends and the speed limit there is 60mph ( and no GATSO's ) up the hill towards Amersham. All the cars think the limit is still 30mph. So it is a great spot to shift 2 gears down, overtake and show off :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Mind you I am still careful as I am running her in . Normally I would shift down 3 gears past neutral, engage the Flux Capacitator and time travel back to 1969 . :smt005 :smt005 :smt005 :smt005 :smt005

It is not tuned.... all I need to do now, is to loose a few stones and it would be a really fast bike :D
