Have a read up on these, they can be very expensive to keep going, parts almost unavailable & subject to ebay potluck.
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Big ends can be weak on these, so never rev hard in neutral, or skimp on the oil mix. I believe the FNR gearbox can be prone to difficulties if not maintained also. Quite powerful though, and a few people here have made new big end caps from bronze which makes the engine a lot stronger.

Hah it's not going to make a pile of difference to me,apart from all the advice here ,it is rapidly approaching my max.I'm always a bit wary of ebay,so try to limit myself to what I could stand to lose,if it was a pile of rubbish,without getting myself hung by my ever patient better half Though I'm always a sucker for ,"Well I could fix/make/replace/break and cut my losses"on that thing.
