Last night, it's 1.14 am on Thursday the 27th of July 2011 my 1981 Yamaha TR1 1000cc motorcycle fired into life for the first time in over a year.
Many thanks to those here who have replied to my queries and given me valuable information and tips, without you all it'd have been a difficult transition.
Music to my ears from her newly chromed 2 into 1 pipe system, few minor teething problems getting an initial start but once going she strated and ran , no choke and no throttle manipulating at all.
Can't wait to get the painted bits on and a few pictures posted here first.
Cheers again guys.
Caseye.

Good Morning Casey,
Your class, the old XV1000, is again running on, and everything ..... without choke so be it. Glad to read me the wrench of this community could help you here .... shame that they never can see, unfortunately ..... a bit far for a few rounds go together ..  ::) ::)
