Hi everyone just thought I’d say hello.
Just picked up this re5 in really good condition already gone through it and changed all the coolant and fuel hoses. Need to strip and check the carb as it has a flat spot and doesn’t like to rev it idles and starts perfectly. Is there anyone in the uk to send the carb to see if needs more? Not wanting to make it a show bike just a good running bike I can use on nice days. Any help is much appreciated.
Not new to the rotary world had multiple rx7s still got one I’ve had 13 years also a repu

Welcome to the board, a great place for information, and in what part of the UK are you?

I see you've had FB comments from Stuart Knox (he's T140V on the board). Stuart can both help you and knows just about everyone in the UK who are deeply into RE5s. There is another UK member on the Board as well, super knowledgeable but I think he may have enough work. He knows who he is, he can contact you if he wants the work.

Not new to the rotary world had multiple rx7s still got one I’ve had 13 years also a repu Welcome to the board Steve, this is probably the best source of information relating to the running and problem solving for the RE5, just takes a little searching and reading. There in another member in Leeds ( had an RX8 as well) 2 in York, 1 in Brigg, 1 in Wakefield, 2 of us in Doncaster, there is also a guy in South Elmsall with an A that has not been ridden ( why ?). As previously mentioned on messenger if you need help just ask. Regards Stuart |
