There's another question,
Which fingers do you use and how many ?
 
Depends on how wet it is 
 
Like balance and method, do what feels good

Infiniteloop, I notice you have an original 9mm front sprocket nut on there, search on here, you will find loads about it, do not worry about it, but I would bear it in mind when you next change chain and sprockets to get the updated 12mm one 

The son of a friend used a lighter to warm up the end of a bit of PVC pipe to put it onto their fuel tap, in pushing it on shook a little bit of fuel out of the valve which dribled down the pipe, then he proceeded to warm up the other end to push it onto the carb, yep you've guessed it . .      
The first liquid to hand to put out the burning pipe was a can of two stroke oil, 
Yep he did  , just the thought makes me cringe, lucky enough I think the flame was by then just licking at the end of the tube and the oil smuthered it, but still     Fooking Hell

"A 15A fuse for this application may well be incorrect,"  - Absolutely !! - VERY likely incorrect & probably dangerous !!!

 "the wires, depending on their gauge will have a specific amperage they can carry and a specific fuse will be needed to protect them from over current situations..."  -  >>>    Spot on 

"Depending on the device it MIGHT already have its own fuse built in?"  -  but that won't protect the wires between it and the battery !!!

The fuse will only protect what is after it, hence why it should be kept as close as possible to the battery. 
 
The example anutz gives you can just about see a fuse holder behind the main box with a red wire either side of it, about 5" from the ring terminal for the battery.
 
Rating wise I would only expect a 1amp or at the most 2amp fuse, but it depends on the device, how many outputs, etc

Won't be able to go, but seeing that did remind me of this 'inappropriate' bike   
 
there's a link to an interesting build, welding, fabricating, etc ... http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=672108
 
and a link to him doing a talk around it ...
 

if those are no good, you should be able to get a piece of suitable pipe off a reel at a motor factors or a hardware place that does rubber hoses for a quid or two, £20 for that is just  , there is always fleebay, just measure up the bore and length

From this thread about the condensate drain holes, rusting inner plates etc....., there is a a good picture showing the structure of the silencer

Yes, your can is on the way out.
The only good news is that if money's tight you can bodge it for a fair time. I used high temp silicone sealant to bung up the gap between the inner and outer bits where the pipe enters the can. It did get through a couple of MOTs that way, but the rattle got too irritating in the end.
The problem is the inner mild steel rusts through down at the bottom (despite the drain holes).
I dismantled mine:





You can see the two inner flanges have rotted through (ignore the slot in the stainless to the left, that's just my clumsy hacksawing). Not shown is the mesh sleeve that the internals are spot-welded to, that's surrounded with mineral wool before being slid into the stainless outer. The mesh gets rusted away at the lower end too so quite a bit of the wool had blown out.

If he has that much gunk down there maybe there is some on the exhaust as well, anyway as slappy said clean it up, but I prefer to use spray can chain lube for pivots like the stands, it sprays on easy, flows into the pivots and dries to a grease so lasts longer than wd40
 
By the way welcome to the site ........ good choice of bike, yep, reason to be a proud owner 
 
........ normal request, show us a picture of your bike

It doesn't seem like much of a punishment for JC if he just switches to another broadcaster for more money.

And in the position of being sacked from the corporation this seems a bit far fetched
From the guardian website -
"Meanwhile, Clarkson’s stint presenting BBC1 quiz Have I Got News for You is still due to go ahead on 23 April. However, sources say the final decision as to whether or not Clarkson will takes part will be down to him and it may be that he wishes to sever his links with the corporation entirely."
 
Yeh that makes sense, you have got to love the media
