I must be noticing more detail in things at the moment.....
been tiling some walls and wishing I was better at it !
Suitably inspired so my Honda will be next .... to get those valves looked at , once have I cleansed the garage bench of all the Matchless bits and boxed them up for a while.

I agree, wait for a decent monsoon to wash the dreaded salt away and for it to dry up again before taking such a tasty looking engine on the road. Take some spanners with you in case something needs a minor adjustment, such as the gear lever position.

Good idea Mike, I will take some spanners with me. I have got to the stage now where I only pick up two spanners or sockets of the wrong size before I get the one I need, so I will only have to take about 20 with me ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well done sticking with it and not losing your temper and "sort it next summer/year/ decade" like a few I've seen (and bought from people) over the years.
