Just to egg it on a bit, I think the word is Yoke in this context.

As regards foot brake and gear lever if the US variant is different then only in later modes as mine is American and has the standard items





The carb drain screw shouldn’t be too tight that you can’t release it but caution is required as it is brass and soft as doodoo. I’d get a good fitting screwdriver with a shank that will take a spanner and get extra leverage that way or if really stuck maybe get a pair of grips on them and be prepared to replace with new.

The silencer can be brazed but not welded as far too thin but looking at yours I think replacement is probably the best option.

Keep plugging away they require endurance

Hi Matt and welcome.
I was in Portsmouth in '91 with the British military right after the first gulf war. The locals there gave us a terrific welcome and treated us very well.
Beautiful location and one to which I hope to be able to return one day.
It made me laugh that the locals hated their southern neighbours so much so that they referred to them as 'Massholes!'

Enjoy your new bike and remember "Live Free or Die"
Peter

I'm really attracted to the 350 four but I've already got too many bikes and not enough space.

Always polish mine. It’s not weeks of work usually an evening.

Hello and welcome.
I started with a 400, then before I knew it they just kept multiplying.

I don’t think we’ve met Bryan but you seem like a fighter and I wish you well.
If however you don’t make it, can I have your bike?

(No malice intended just an attempt at light ‘hearted’ good humour).
