Recently joined site and must say big thanks for all info and advice, just got an fe400. First cut out wiring rewired and moved relay under seat, then changed starter leads to big ones, gel battery fitted, fitted new ali-bronze bush in original starter motor, modded auto de-compressor to max size and filed to size once fitted. Then pressed the button and instant ignition try again and again FIRES UP EVERY TIME , then called in my KTM mates and pressed again and sat back to watch them eat my hat JUST LIKE THEY HAD PROMISED. What a site so much info, having crank balanced at moment as going through motor for piece of mind will post again.

jackter,
have you done only the welding on the weight of the decomp. Or a second weldling on the side which is lifting the rocker?
Have you a picture from it?

Hello HUSA
I welded the profile on top of the lifter to the max that could be fitted through the hole then filed it to shape of the max allowable to close completely when flipped over to the off cam position. The starter motor spins the engine over with ease and with minimum drain on the battery, the starter leads do not get hot anymore. I have got the engine in bits at the moment so will try and post a picture later.
