This months issue has just dropped on the mat

Maybe FOC-U shouldnt have pissed off Mark Williams when he first asked for help as theres a couple of mistakes

It is in general  a good article,  Deefer is his usual star of the show self, ( tho you do appear to have new partner at work " Paul at Motorcycle Republic" ??)  and the bike comes out as exactly what is is , A true classic

But ................  A recall to change the gearbox output shaft from 9mm to 12 mm   errrr  news to me

And headlight mod needs either a snip to a wire or a extra lamp wired into holes that already exist in the headlamps ????

Fairing got a redesign in 2000 ?  maybe he means paint so we`ll let that ride

Dont Over-torque sprocket nut as engine rotation torques it further which can cause it to snap off .Possibly nut issue lost in translation a tad

Nit picking aside, like I said its pretty decent and 3 full colour pages in one of the best bike mags around isnt to be sniffed at

What mag is it?
Not quite sure what to do with my early mid-life crisis. Ideas on a post card to P.O.BOX 150...

I sometimes download it, but it's still March at the moment. Sorting through some stuff the other day I found a load from the 80s. There is no wonder my garage is full, I also spotted a topbox from a 250 super dream I bought in 82 I think it was. ?.
