This was the second time round for 1+2


Clagsville!

Check out the screws holding the bowls on…………proper
Possibly why the bowls were help on and sealed with brown window mastic. Genius

The bike’ s lovely and after fettling has commenced, she’ll run lovely too

For some unknown reason Honda fitted smaller screws than they should have, a lot of thread is left unused, most likely that’s why you tend to strip them out. I always clean the threads up and fit the correct length screws when I’m doing carbs, iirc the top caps screws are 16mm when they should be 20mm as an example.

I've heard you say that before Ken and logged it. Due to all the mismatched internals I've had a delve in the drawers in the Shed of Dreams and come up with a complete new set of brassware for it. I think it would be safer fitting all the same rather than this lot that they came with. The bike's done 50 thousand miles and the needles are very worn at the top.

I figure although aftermarket, they might neutalise the issues I may have with these 'bitsa' internals. I mean, the needles are a given but have no info on age, use, why only two sets were partly fitted and sp on,.........I might as well! Baseline settings and all that.

Tomorow evening alread palnned out then ;D
