Oil leak sussed (hopefully)
Bryanj:
Seen one like that back in early 80's bike had done at least 120,000 but had a couple of stripdowns for various reasons, new owner ran it for 9,000 with no adjustments--cam seized in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and it was stripped by a dealer up there then I did a round trip from Gloucester in a day with VOLVO 245 estate and trailer to fetch the remains back, rebuilt with new cam chain and all the rest used went on with original pistons and rings in SH cylinders for many more years
Spitfire:
Not a pretty sight, but glad you have got to the bottom of it
Cheers

My thoughts exactly, where did all the ally go?
There is no sign of any remnants anywhere and it appears that the whole thing has been stripped and rebuilt so I guess it has all been cleared out.

I got the replacement barrels on today, just have to wait now for the headset to arrive so I can finish it off and get it all back together again.
Why is it always a bank holiday when you are in a hurry for something!!!
Patience is a virtue I don't really have much of. ::)

Well it doesn't leak any more.
HOOORRAAHH!!!!!!
Saying that I haven't been any great distance yet, just round the block, but last time it leaked almost straight away and so far nothing. ;D
