“Made Like a Gun”

I took this video today of an electric start and idle. The wind was vicious.

Thanks to some mates at the Royal Enfield online forum that have been instructing me how to fix the engine idle using the throttle stop and the pilot air screw. It’s a delicate balance to get it to idle at a steady rpm and to make sure that it drops back down to that setting after high throttle revs.

Of course it dies on me.

Also trying to burn out the three year old fuel (petrol). Haven’t attempted the kick-start yet.
