Latex or inflatable? 😂

Looks brand new, what's your cleaning technique

Had the bike out this eve (sunny blip) obviously expecting improvement but WOW, grin factor 10 all the way, what a massive difference,   Defo having to upgrade the suspension now, (when funds permit) 


Thanks for all Mike

Your not Kidding I nearly started on a template for a home made jobbie lol
Many thanks ALL

Hi Focers, Im having trouble finding a timing cover gasket ( probably wrong term) and a cct gasket for F thou, It seems I am hopeless on the
t'internet.
Any help much  appreciated

Hi thanks teecee I managed to get hold of a set that did the job, I have 5 on the exhaust valves that need adjusted.I am quite surprised as i thought this was the first check at 28k as i purchased the bike at supposedly 12000k 4 years ago, backed up by Mots and the bike was in very clean cond. When inspecting the valve cover there was grey gasket sealant in places between the valve cover and the rubber( (very amateurish looking application) which has raised my suspicions about this bike which is a shame because I thought i had a good un and have enjoyed every moment in the saddle on this machine and have had many comments on how nice the bike looked. ... Can you tell i'm a tad disappointed

Hi Timbo, the drain hole is on the left side of the engine and runs through each plug port. Its brill what you can learn on the foc u, Great bunch,..........  well most of em

Hi Tommyardin the crush washers are there, i double checked, just cant see them for crud. I have always serviced/ replaced plugs no matter which vehicle by the manual but it seems I expected too much from iridium plugs. Cheers

Hi Tommyardin, its a K&N air filter fitted same time as iridium plugs, it was totally clean but soaking (i mean dripping with fuel) when i checked it a few weeks ago and from what ive gathered so far is I think I have a carb issue. cheers


Hi PieEater now I Know why folks call em Halfrauds cos thats where I bought the plugs. Cheers

Thanks for the input guys, hadn't a clue about the drain holes but was a bit sus about runnin rich.
Cheers all.

Thanks for the link Falcon.

Can anyone explain how its done
cheers

Hi folks, gonna have a go at the valve clearances, bikes at 28odd K. I know i dont need to remove the carbs (thanks to PieEater) But just wanted to ask if i still have to remove the fairing and thermostat housing (as per Haynes manual) to get the valve cover off? AIS has been removed.
Also, my feeler gauges are not tapered, will this matter?
Thanks in advance guys.
