Oh god, what have I done!!! Pt 2

Picked up the Kwak today

It runs but sounds like there's a knocking when trying to idle!

But aside from that she's pretty much ready to go!!

All for the princely sum of £350 lol

 

Lol that means nowt to me! Lol

I think the air box has been removed as well, so might not be working as well.

The carbs have already been cleaned

 

Lol she does love the bike, it's been named already

We are looking at the week before Easter for the big license upgrade!

Yes the knocking stops when you rev it. When you first start it with the choke on it sounds fine at 4K revs, but then as you slowly knock the choke off you can hear it knocking!

 

No receipt, but to be honest he was honest about the bike so I've no reason to believe otherwise. They weren't balanced, just cleaned.

Want to get it mot'd asap now lol

 

Some pics in the daylight lol

 

Cheers for that mate

Need to figure out how to do it now lol

Got some noises for you lot in the know to listen to

 

I've got more noises!!! Watch the vids and see if you can spot the error I've found lol

 

Yeah, this is a lot more than normal lol

Gonna look at the cam tensioner on Friday

 

Well stripped down a fair bit today

This is what I found

 

Yup!

But I will not be beaten lol

 

I took it off to see the cam chain and see how tight it was. Never found the tensioner though!

I did find that the ht leads seem to be very corroded so going to replace those and the coils as they're specific units.

 

Haha at least I know now that the chain is in good nick and tight lol

 

Lol, well it was a learning curve!

I'm going to do the coils and ht leads as they are in poor order.

And balance the carbs.

It needs an air box as well as some plonker put some cheap k&n fakes on as well!!

 

I'm hoping so! But it was fun stripping it down today even swmbo took an interest and joined in

It's very spongy on the front end too so think it may need fork oil doing lol
