hot (very) and lumpy dommie
Just bought an 88 dommie.Bike ran ok for a few weeks with bloody big holes in exhaust.Then started to play up at tick over.repaired leaking exhuast and changed oil and filter.repaired inlet tract and cleaned carb up good and proper.PROBS>cant get bike to start easily and when started idling is erratic starting with high revs (3/4000) then drops out and stops.A real pig to set up tick over using air screw/throttle screw.(Carb was cleaned with great attention to settings as manual)
Bike is running incredibly hot after a very short time.(timing?) recon this must be affecting fuel delivery as its like trying to get the sun to idle!!!!! Can anyone offer a newbie some advise???

I believe that the ignition timing is fixed. Try checking that you have the correct grade of spark plug, that the valve clearances are correct and that the decompressor cable for easier starting is correctly adjusted (you may have two - one is kickstarted operated and the other manual via a lever?)
On my DR600, I know when my decompressor cable needs adjusting because it is definitely harder to kick it past TDC. I'm in the habit of checking every time I do the valve clearances. Steve
