Valve stem seals
OZZYSBIKES:
I checked all of the above and below (on the floor) they were missing, now ordered so should be able to have it back running on Wednesday,
It doesn't surprise me with some of the work on this bike, it has a spurious exhaust system on it and the back brake lever hit the exhaust and the side stand wouldn't fit, I removed it completely, refitted it correctly and now the side stand is fitted and the rear brake lever doesn't touch the exhaust, hopefully nothing much left on this bike to surprise me !
OZZYSBIKES:
PS I have a few neodymium magnets and did use them to pick off the stubborn ones, I also got a magnifying glass and a pick to see if they were stuck fast, they weren't and with the magnifying glass you could see that it was the material of the guide and not the shim, all good now, all ready to rebuild, I'll get the barrel on Tuesday then finish off Wednesday (all being well, no unforeseen slip ups hopefully)
