Wack wrote:I've just bought a Silver Special that's dated 1965 according to Allstyles website. As far as I can see it has never been messed with . It has the chrome ring headset, Carello light units, white switches and roller panel handles. It has a sticker on the headset for a place in North East Italy called Miane which looks to be a small Alpine principality. This probably explains all the dust and caked on mud everywhere but hardly any rust, even the horn grill unscrewed. It must have served well as the speedo has 61k on it. It's always nice to get hold of a good import and see exactly how it was assembled at the factory.

I've just stripped the carb on my '66 125 Special import - & I have a query:-
Everything is as it should be according to 'sticky' - except my main jet is 107 & my atomiser is 5899-4 but it should be 5899-5 - what difference does this make & should I change it [jet or atomiser] - considering that since I bought her I haven't had her running yet.

And what difference might it make to the running of my beloved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
