@@ZAZA-zu4ld i think it was from 87 they moved to a 2 peace clutch cover. So everything from that year will fit your bike such as 87 to 01. You Will need the inner clutch case and outer clutch cover. You will need new coolant hose. The one that goes from inner clutch case to cylinder head. As ones supplied on new hose kits are a little to short. Also OEM one is just a little short. I got one from ebay car radiator hose. Part number here Heater Hose 02-1859 Gates Coolant 9065010682 A9065010682 427521859 Quality New. There are better ones but all i could find

Try and check the colour of the plug it's tip should be the same colour as the inside of a Cadbury whispa that should give you a good starter and make sure you start with the carb needle in the middle position for a base line and a larger main jet to like you were saying good luck for the future

Use the R1369N needle on 3rd clip postion. Air screw turn it all the way in clockwise til it stops then back it out 1.5 turns out counterclockwise. Main jet should be 168 main and 65 pilot. Make sure the carb is the Keihen PJ21A carb so you know that’s the stock carb
