Oh well, the new motor has arrived so need to get the bike over to mates so him and his niper can get them swapped over and backt o riding her again. must say I am missing the experience of riding her more than I thought I would.
new engine is in and running so she is back in use, must clean the Bird now, and sounds crisper than ever but wondering if the wadding n the can has been rendered ineffective by the oil. Still, glad to have her back working again.
