Re: Cafe?

Hey Jaime,
I live in Tenerife, so I'm using Spanish Add-ons. I use SPAAN bits & pieces. You'll find them at :- Tecnoimport S.L., C/ Tajo NÂș3, 28840 Mejorada Del Campo, Madrid.
You can pick their catalogue up from the internet. Mine got here a few days after I sent for it, & the bike shops can get hold of the stuff very easily.
I think you'll find that the Spanish spec. (which, strangely enough, is the same as the Canadian spec.) is slightly different than the American spec. that everyone talks about in this forum. I think the engine runs a bit richer & the top end is better. I don't know about you (& also water warrior, in Canada) but I never have to use the choke, & I've just checked the spark plug after 10,000 km, & it's still in perfect condition.
If you have an "Al Campo" supermarket in Madrid, you could try some of their own brand fuel additive in the tank. (only 4,54 euros). Made a world of difference to mine.
