i found the 200k more reliable actually, and it had more km on it than my 19a at the moment alsoChris_C wrote:The sexy engine on a Strom!

but it works when you use some locktite so the adjustment screws dont fall out (maybe some adjustment would have cured this, but locktite is easier)

Re: Green mk2 on ebay
Yeah, that's what I like about it. I've become a convert to Strom/SU carbs recently over fixed choke, they are just lovely! Flywheel is still too heavy in my mind as stock, but compared to all the other 300's I think it's the best trade off.L14MNP wrote:The strong as an ox, surprisingly keen motor that was originally in my GLS, Ben.
Working 1.7's are better in my mind with the right amount of flywheel, but when was the last time anyone spotted a *truely* working 1.7

Re: Green mk2 on ebay
Agree with Chris - they are heavily flywheeled but that carb gives instant throttle response from idle speed
