  5. in to weaken. fuel screws between carb and engine, air screws air box and carb. I'd err on the side of being rich as todays fuel is so bad now

    lithium batteries blow at 13.5 volts, don't ask how I know
  18. depends on the amount of knowledge of the bike owner. I always check stuff on the bike and would happily take it for an MOT anytime during the riding season,I just couldn't ride it like I do otherwise. Slice, you not heard of a 1928 Brough Superior? 130mph enough? or what about a 1950 Vincent black shadow! 125 mph

    sorry I thought you said Knickers, my bad
  20. Got a day off today as I am working this Sunday. weather said nice in morning, rain mid afternoon and nice again So I took the fz out for a good run out and what a joy it was. No Motorways but some lovely A roads especially on the A682, smooth and twisty great for scratching around. forgot where exactly the place was but its obvious when you can see it from the road Devils bridge; legend says that an old woman wanted to cross the river. She made a pact with the devil to make the bridge and the cost was the first soul to cross the bridge. the woman sent her dog across got rained on at Padiham and torrents 1 mile from home. Still the bike ran well and no drama
