    CBR400RR Went hard (before it started choking). Yet to try the V4, but everyone says they're better.

    Yamaha FZR250 speed bike, Yamaha YZ/WR250F, Kawasaki ZX2R, Honda VTR250, DR350 (x 3.5), a couple of prototypes and whatever else.
    So last night I picked a couple of KX250s (because I don't have enough bikes already), so I tried to get one going today. Had a broken kickstart shaft, so I swapped that, and unstuck the clutch plates while there. Not pretty inside, but we'll see if it starts, first. But it didn't: no spark, seems to be the pulse coil...

    There's also pretty of kdx200s, zxr250s and a bunch other bikes to work on, too. And I spend the week working other people's bikes, now.

    Not today but over the weekend I got a bit more done on the engine assembly. I still need to silver solder the oil feed tube so no oil heads that way.
    My new (old) 350 head has had a bit of a cleanup but it needs blasting.
    It was also missing a valve spring and 2 spring seats so I need to pull the head of the spare motor to rob for parts.
    Might get to that during the week then it is off to have the valves ground etc.
    Still lots to do though
