Malc Gilliver 14 August 2026 Allan Staniforth - springs are for carrying the weight, anti-roll bars are for controlling roll.
Good book ! -
Malc Gilliver 14 August 2026 Les,
Lift the bonnet and move the spindles, if they move you have wear..
Check the front carb against the rear just so you have a feeling of the comparative wear

anamnesis 14 August 2026 Yep, and Malc too.
-
Les Robinson 14 August 2026 Will have a chat with the man on Wednesday to discuss any possible issues and will mention potential spindle wear.
-
Les Rose 14 August 2026 Still mulling over roll stiffness. I believe the standard Frogeye front springs are 270lb. The standard 1275 ones are 340lb. But if I use those I think I need to lower them 1/2" because the Frog is lighter at the front. Correct? I have a steel bonnet.
-
GuyW 14 August 2026 A previously slightly rich mixture could well have masked any slight spindle leak, making it run more evenly
-
Jeremy MkIII 14 August 2026 Very good David.π€
-
Les Robinson 14 August 2026 Thatβs what I think.
Anyway hopefully he can sort it next week. -
TR Hammond 14 August 2026 Is this correct?
-
Dave O'Neill 2 14 August 2026 If he's changed the needles, it sounds like he's picked the wrong profile.
