hello everybody,
im back after the longest of absences while i was completing my engineering and now finally have time to get back to repairing my lovely mc 16. ( i love her so much i want to keep her and sell my VFR Interceptor !! )
1) the bike is running, but iit isnt accelerating cleanly and is giving me only 25mpg.
2) the bike revs up to the red line only in the first three gears , while never going above 7 to 8 thousand rpms in the higher gears even under full throtle. i cant do more than 125 km/hr. nomatter how long a stretch of road and at full throttle. i suspect one of the cylinders is misfiring and cuts of at higher rpms. could this be the reason it isnt revving and if so what could be affecting it.
3) what would be the best place to source parts for the mc 16,
especially engine components ( pistons, rings, oil seals, etc.)
thanks for stopping by and for all the help you can give,
happy biking!
