Sun out today so got up and uncovered the old girl ready for a blast and found a nice pool of coolant underneath  :(.

Tank,side panels etc off and it’s a bit more than a weep,thermostat housing is leaking like a good un,stripped it down and it’s only a perished o ring,checked my spares and I don’t have one,so looks like I’ll have to order a new one and fit it next weekend.

Reset the throttle valve gaps while the tank was off and sorted a few bits that were loose after the ride yesterday.

Forgot how 2 smokes need a bit more TLC than the old oil boiler,still she was on the road for a whole 24 hours xD

Rode the smoker a fair bit now so engine is run in ,still some issues to sort,not feeling quite right and the power valves need a programmer to fine tune the curve so bit the bullet today and ordered a  zeeltronic 

Back brake needs sorting as well ,needs repainting as I spilt brake fluid on it and missed cleaning it off so it’s now stripped itself :(

Wheels back from powder coaters to so need to fit the running gear and new bearings then stick the some rubber on them .

Just a few last jobs before the winter arrives.

Getting her ready for Newark in a couple of weeks:)

New bearings in the good wheels,tyres being fitted tomorrow,replaced the non working rhs switch gear with a cheap second hand one of the bay of e,junked the crap onda racing reservoir and put the Suzuki one back on after fitting a master cylinder repair kit,should have known better than buying HRC......xD

Still need to bleed the rear brake and swap the wheels over bits that’s a job for another day as I feel a beer calling me:ph34r:
