@Dave: the starter engages at 9 o’clock (screw were chain attaches to as pointer) and at end of the stroke is at 3 – 4 o’clock.
@Graham: there is no play in any part of the assembly, everythings feels really sound. Below a picture of the starter.
The angle is a bit steeper in real as the bike is on the rear stand on the picture. The starter cannot go any higher as it is already against it’s stop.
I do retard the ignition and will try the decompression valves as soon as I find a fitting lever for this.
Thanks so far guys!
Cheers,
Erik
