Re: Acewell speedo/tach

Never had a problem with mine,the pick up wire is twisted around the HT about 8 to10 times and covered with heatshrink.Google Quadtech to ask their opinion if you can't get it sorted.

Why not try fettling the choke adjuster by shortening the body and adjuster and then use a 90 degree elbow? You will need to alter the choke cable to compensate.

It's not ideal but try a 14 t sprocket, this will tell you that the TV/SX box is too high at 4.8:1. As long as your chain isn't too stretched and you can take the slack up, then if proves better consider a gearbox change. Repacking the tail can will help with the noise.

I've got an RB 20 to build and just thought I'd slip the barrel on the bare casing but it was very tight and wouldn't go down. I removed a stud and it sat correctly so looks like the holes need drilling out. I also noticed that the spigot has been turned down to fit a 150 casing and left a step on t...
