If your HT leads look a bit grim do not bin them. Click on Alladins Cave and read Ash's coil fix.

Leave the complete front end off, remove the rear wheel and stand it up on the swing arm ends on a sack cart or dolly and a couple of you should be able to get it through the house. I've done it many moons ago. But you have plenty off time to think about that one yet.

You can picture the thought process.
I know if I drill these out it will let more oil through. End of thought process. It also tells you a lot about those who told you to do it. 1285
CB500/550 / Re: Insurance time again and its gettnig harder ..................« on: July 24, 2018, 08:12:03 AM »I like that Moorey, I didn't think I had much going for me being a 57 year old female nurse bike rider living where i do but now you put it like that, I will now see it as a positive 😀😀😀 Also, I do declare my speeding conviction but that doesn't increase the premium at all. The strangest thing though is that Trig's quotes are exactly the same price as mine, at both this postcode and his old postcode in Milton Keynes. I think you get to a certain age where the insurers see you as such a low risk, the premium stays low. Stranger still is the premium for the Honda CD250u is the same as the 600 Thundercat, one does 70 flat out the other does 154 flat out. Absolutely no logic at all.No it is difficult to fathom out. But what both have in common is both are equally capable of killing someone else or writing off some high price supercar in a accident. What you also will find out is as you get older your premiums will start to increase again because of your age. Anyone moaning about the cost of premiums just needs to talk to a tenager about it, and you will come away with a smile on your face. 1286

Its nearly impossible to compare insurances as every body is different, occupations and postcodes even if only a few streets difference can make massive differences in premiums. I would guess Julies postcode and occupation + gender and age must be one of the best in the country. It all plays a large part.

Yes I saw it. They are a decent bike for the money. Have you looked at the choice of tyres for16" wheels.

Certainly from what I would call the new era of bonnies/tbirds but that could still make one over 15 years old I suppose, but personally I don't see them as classics. You could get a 1800 Goldwing as old would you call that a classic.
