Re: Cable tie clip self adhesive bases
Having been once issued with an army blanket with shit stuck to it (which was only apparent when I tried to unfold it) I can assure you that won't ever find anything which sticks as well as that.

Re: Dellorto PHM40s
I also checked the needle valve (K4), main jet (AB265) and idle jet (152) were the same on both carbs. Dave, I just noticed your jetting for the carbs. You have 152 for the idle jet - this is the main jet, the idle should be in the late 50s. If you have 152 in the idle I'd be very surprised! What y...

A stub of fuel hose with an Allen bolt rammed in the end of it, hose-clipped to the spigot on the crankcase!
