Title: Should I be worried
Post by: dazza on 15 August 2012, 05:45:00 pm
Hello foc'ers, can anyone identify this. Looks to me like some sort of bearing spacer.....10mm inside dia, 15mm outside and 4mm thick. Found it near my bike :eek

Well done lads, yep done it last week. Looks like I'll be having it out again tomorrow. Been  walking past it for 3 days now, thought it was a rubber washer until I booted it (like ya do).  :lol

I was worried, about a year ago, as the master wasn't coming near me for many months, I decided to Ivanise my bike with a s/o kit. All went well, except that I lost a needle spring from one of the carbs. (A very small spring like half a cigarette lighter spring.) I cleared my bench off, and cleared and swept half the garage out with no luck. A replacement cost me about £35 and had to include a needle kit. I finished the job, and found the original spring about four weeks ago trodden into the coconut mat in front of my bench, undamaged!
