Misc / Open / Idiot light stickers
« on: July 24, 2024, 01:18:07 AM »
Six years ago I got on Ebay a sticker to put on the idiot light console of my CB400F, mucho cheaper than buying a new unit but I can't find out where I got it from and I want a new one now. Does anyone know?

How often do you guys do them, it says every 1,500 miles in the manual?
Quite honestly I do them when sounds are telling me something, or by opportunity when it is in the workshop. I can never remember how far I've gone since they were last done. Never did me any harm. When I first got this bike six years back ( I paid too much!) the tappet covers were stuck fast , the hexagons on them mostly rounded off, I needed the mechanics to get them off and do the tappets, gawd knows how overdue they were, it may have a lot to do with how hard the bike is ridden of course. My Elen has been leading a gentle life really, something to do with MY age.  ;) my dispatch days are history.  ;D

Did realise a squirrel bladder was so big  :)
Perhaps they've been dahn-t-pub.
They have mastered the mystery of how to compress fluids!  ;)

One good thing about all this rain, it keeps my noisy neighbours out of the courtyard, I can even get some sleep in the afternoons!  ;D

Hello Roofus, welcome here!  ;D

Are classic bikes suffering suppressed prices with this cost living crisis thing? I would have thought the Norton rotory would have been worth more, maybe the paint job did it no good. I wonder what had the RAC use it, it can't have been bad.

Get a couple of boy scouts to do it during a 'bob a job week' although it will probably cost a fiver these days ;)
I can't remember when I last saw a boy scout in Londinium!  ;D

Are there any magical tricks/techniques for sprucing up the wheel hubs within the spokes that anyone wants to share?  ;)
