Had one of these, regrettably I had to sell it about 20 years ago for financial reasons. Re the carb, slide nearest the cylinder is the the throttle valve, the one behind it is the choke, once warmed up the choke is fully opened. Front mudguard isn't original, correct type has a wide flare at the bottom which flattens out for about 4", the original probably rusted away. Rear mudguard is also suspect. Apart from that it looks pretty original. Oil wise, it's total loss obviously, one pump every 10 miles or so, there should be a light blue haze from the exhaust under load, use a monograde 30. Used to ride mine around the deserted north yorkshire country roads where we lived at the time, dealing with any traffic is a real challenge!
Just fantastic !
Sounds really nice
