Well, Ive got spark now, a real good one, Ive got petrol, and still she will not go. Just fires now and then. Ive tried both of my Boyers, and the cb points...
... Malc, are you sure you have good compression? That is, valves not too tight, no leaks from head gasket, etc. What you're describing sounds like how my M20...
Obviously you need a rich mixture for starting. If bike just fires now and then, it may be that mixture is too weak for starting from cold - are you using the...
... This is another important factor I should have mentioned. On ALL my big singles (Bullet, Goldies, M20), they like it flooded. Depress tickler and hold it...
It has been raining here for three weeks and my Enfield (2006 Bullet with 2700 miles) has been sitting without starting for that long. When I started it I got...
Hi steve, google "enfield bullet wet sumping" it's pretty common ,usually not to much to worry about, try leaving the motor at TDC when you park it up. Riggo ...

Rear axle adjustment questions settled, thanks again to those who took the time to contribute. The problem is turns out - is not the rear. It's the front. I...
... If you haven't flooded this beast by now, it's one of life's miracles! Have you read the de-flooding rant in my CD chap 2 about starting? Basically, plug...
... I've always tickled it until gas starts flying around - out the tickler hole, etc. It takes a feel for the particular bike, but I like to see a little...
... How can that be? Are you using the decomp properly? Should just roll over if you start in the right piston position. Too soon and it'll a)be hard as...

Gedday Michael The enfield front end is pretty simple to pull apart, you don't really need any special tools. Just take one side off at a time, the fork tube...

... While I can't address your problems directly, I will say that after taking my Thunderbird apart and sort of testing the general strength of things like the...
Thanks Victor. I think you have a more "zen" way of considering the project. I think I was dreading too much the pull-apart of the forks. No major worries then...
... I had the same problem with my 1970 BSA Firebird after a rebuild, good spark, plenty of petrol but wouldn't start. What turned out to be the problem was...
