This government and previous governments have made sure that crime does now actually pay.
Tell me about it, I've seen the bicycle thieves a couple of times openly using angle grinders on chains in the public glare.  I know that feeling of finding an empty space were your bike is supposed to be as well.

What is that green paint I keep seeing on the back of clocks?

You've got a collection of DSS receipts as big as mine! By the way, what is that funny clock (watch?) on your right handlebar? Did you polish the saddle? The last time I did that I hit the brakes and found myself on the tank with GF doing a handstand up on my shoulders!

My pattern clocks are satin. They replaced clocks of doubtful vintage that I had first got painted gloss ( complete with runs) they looked aweful garish, that is aweful. Go for satin I'm sure it is measnt to be so.

This is madness Ted, perhaps you should have dialled 999? When I was taken in with pneumonia to the Royal London Hosptial a while back things happened rather quickly.

I have drained carbs and tank and swilled a couple of pints of diesel in each tank to help keep rust at bay.
I've had enough of diesel in my tank to last a lifetime  , I'd rather put a tiger in it. I can't lay my bike up indoors because I don't have a garage, so some short rides if only around the compound most days of the week and staying out of the wet are the only ways forward for me. But lots of ACF-50 will be used etc.

That diagram is all wrong.
As you sit astride the bike Cylinder 1 is on the far outer left, then its cylinders ,2,3,4.
Right, I'll delete before it does anymore harm!

When the rebore was done, were the valves checked and also clearances set properly upon re assembly.?
I had a different garage do those at the same time as I had them fit the header pipe properly. Bike was great for a day and now this. I expect I'll be heaving the carbs out.

If the leads are long enough try swapping the two cylinders to eliminate a HT coil lead issue.
Alas, it didn't work either.  Maybe I'm going to have to face the hell of putting carbs back in but not today anymore.
