Ah Yes,
Frogs are about it seems, although they don't seem to help with enfield woes. The carb was rejetted the needle clip moved to the centre groove and the machine started after a fashion although it ran cleanly after a little while, it seems more sensative to choke now. The roadtest didn't happen because the FOG didn't lift . The following morning it started first prod, ran for less than a minute before it started spitting and then stopped. It did it two or three times before being clear enough to spin around the drive. All seemed ok so I was going to roadtest it after lunch however it woudn't go, nothing not even a spit through the carb and hasn't gone since!!!!.
It is now back on the lift in bits once again, the saga continues , for the next thrilling episode don't forget to watch this space.
Regards David

The final post on my sorry tail,
The bullet 65 is now finally back to being as good almost as it used to be. Their is just the final fettling at the carb to do. The failure to start was caused by a faulty coil, it is now replaced. The jetting of the carb has done wonders , the electronic ignition combined with an irridium spark plug make it very easy to start.
