thanks for the fuel Nick,Really enjoyed our saturday evening, I've just booked the hay V klichco fight, I will be coming out fighting at mallory don't worry!
we always found a big end would put up with three seizures ,before it needed replacing, it was new at the start of the year so nothing to do with rust, my bike looks really old because it is, sadly there is truth in the words no pain, no gain,
we have some simple mixture issues, but Im optimistic with some help we will resolve these.
I'm not unhappy, this has certainly coming back to close to where it was, when I sold it, i just need a little more practice.
On the mending it in the paddock ? every one has to mend it in the paddock at some point, besides I wasn't trying to mend it, I had to make an exhaust bracket, when i swopped engines, I had overlooked this little gem.
but thanks for the comments and advice
cheers Derek
