Oddjob:
No idea, it was a long time ago. I did them as a matter of course, the engine would come in rattling even at 500 miles, so I felt it my job to send it back out purring like a kitten. 2 mates came in one time, both with an identical 250n, both for 500 miles service. I did one, another mechanic did the other, the one I didn't do complained like hell that his engine sounded a lot worse than the one I'd done, which to be fair it did. The one I did was completely silent engine wise, his sounded like a bucket of nails in comparison. Still remember that after all these years, made me feel proud knowing that my efforts were appreciated. He complained so badly the workshop foreman had to come out and listen to his engine and he agreed it wasn't good enough. I ended up having to do his as well, which to be honest I didn't mind at all.
Bryanj:
I used to adjust every service

Ok, then that looks like my first job to check. Thanks again.

A 'off on a tangent' question. Was the original fit of speedo a max of 80mph or the 100mph one; both of which I have seen advertised for sale for the cm250t.

I do like the way your bike stands as you look at the photo - the seat & bars look comfy with a clean classic type design of the period.
