Do you think years of wearing crash helmets is making bikers go bald easier? 

I've always thought that was the case for me. I started biking when I was 17. Not long after I remember my nan pointing out I'd lost some hair on top and she thought it might be the helmet. Now 56. Not totally bald but lost most the hair on the top of my head .

Screwfix do a good selection of stainless steel fasteners at a good price. M8s have a 13mm head though.

Could be a bent valve.

The 350 was what everybody wanted as soon as they’d passed their test.

The “350” on the side panel meant more than the lack of L plates!

Of course, we all really wanted a 4 but well out of reach

Yes I bought my 350 after passing my test in 1981. Trouble is I'd only owned it about 2 weeks when I decided to rag it down the duel carriageway to see how fast it would go. It did 95mph on the clock but when I got back home it was pissing out oil. It turned out all the piston rings had broken. Even though it was only 10 years old at the time, I had a right job getting parts for it. It's probably easier now! I was told by one dealer to try the natural history museum  . It had Hepolite pistons in it which weren't made anymore. When I finally got hold of some Honda pistons, I discovered it was a bored out 250 and I had to get them machined, so they didn't hit the head  .
