          Thank you again

          Ian thank you for asking and Tod thank you for posting the pix of how to do the squeal fix.

          I also cleaned up the copper commutator segments while I had it apart.

          The bike has never started so well. When the bike was hot it would struggle to start before no more! This fixed it.

          Thanks
