    Bodywork is in good shape , someone has done a bit to it .... not that Ill use it

    Bike had fallen over by the time we got home , so a rethink for the tie down system .... not that ol mate avoided too many of the bumps and potholes along the way.
    Forks had little oil left as forks compressed easily when tieing it down ..... and any left was on the floor at the end
    Wheels look like they will polish up fine
    Carbs might need 'work' and I think it needs coolant :fuckyou:

    More importantly the fork I need looks 'ok' so far

    As long as the Donor bike didnt damage the new Hauler when it went down all is good.
    Just what you need... more bike bits :)

    How is the petrol tank?

    Carbs might need 'work' and I think it needs coolant

    I think you're right on both counts.

    Hmmm 2 years since Ive done anything to this bike ...and only 10 years since I bought it .... time flys when youre having fun :commando:

    Anyway tried a startup just now but all I got was backfire
    Swapped back to the old TCI and the same .... including a pop from #3 carb
    With choke on and starter fluid it pops from all carbs and the exhaust
    Need more fuel input as it ran dry pretty quick from filling the bowls initially.
    The COPS setup is "untested" till today , so anything is possible

    Also oil is leaking from the front right corner of the new rocker gasket


    Back to the drawing board or more realistically the lounge + cricket for the time being I say :D
    Nice to work in relative comfort though


    Excuse the extended coverage of the floor and my foot .... I hate phones

    If you don't want to drill the cap in the future, I've had good luck tapping the key as its being turned. It might take a billion taps and a couple hours of your time though.
