  1. nut and bolts, parafin and shakey shakey. I would suggest lining the tank with POR15, its a kit with acid etcher and the 2 pack sealant. I'm assuming your from UK as you said petrol, so www.frost.co.uk is a good supplier drweps
  2. you normally don't touch it as it works from vaccum. don't have it on prime, that's whe you disturb the carbs and they need filling before starting. the bit you use to turn ie the long part should be; down for on, and forward for reserve and pulled facing backwards for prime could be the pet-cock diaphram is perished, you can buy kits to repaire them drewps

  12. Ned, I know some peeps who bypass the switch, I don't have one on mine(SOHC Model). I think its just the laws there which determine if one is fitted drewps

  17. totally agree, got some knob on an R1 cutting traffic in a 30, double white lines, blind left had bend. just took off at 50 and forces peeps to pull over. saw an old guy walking along the road holding his hands up in despair. i knew what he was thinking " fucking bikes" you could here the bike's revs wind up 1/2 mile away. although I am a "sunday" biker, I don't take risks or upset people without cause!!
  18. its the nose that does it!! he even has OG's poorly toe!!!
  19. OG out on a long summer ride on his DT, pulls up to a tavern in the middle of no where, parks his bike and walks inside. As he passes through the swinging doors, he sees a sign hanging over the bar: COLD BEER: £2.00 HAMBURGER: £2.25 CHEESEBURGER: £2.50 CHICKEN SANDWICH : £3.50 HAND JOB: £50.00 Checking his wallet to be sure he has the necessary payment, OG walks up to the bar and beckons to the exceptionally attractive female bartender who is serving lemonade to wild Foamy and a couple of his Moped friends. She glides down behind the bar to the old biker. "Yes?" she inquires with a wide, knowing smile, "may I help you?" OG leans over the bar, "I was wondering young lady," he whispers, "are you the one who gives the hand-jobs?" She looks into his eyes with that wide smile and purrs "Why yes, yes, I sure am". OG leans closer and into her left ear whispers softly, "Well, wash your hands really good, cause I want a cheeseburger".
