Morning all,
I am keen to get into classic racing and am building a 650 AJS with a 1959 DL engine and 61 duplex frame.
Anyone ever competed on one and have words of wisdom in regards to tuning, bike set up etc?
Bike will have the twin carb manifolds.

Unless you plan on using one of the clubs newer superior crankshafts I'd say don't! Also it'd be a good idea along with the crank to put in either Carillo or Thunder Engineering G45 rods.

One of the engines diverted to become Thruxton's no doubt:)
