Tubbs is working his magic on mine..... ![]() Hi jill what you having done to the bike? The main objective was to reduce the amount of oil it consumed.... So the bike has been stripped, cylinder head cleaned and re-hatched, new piston rings, primary chain adjusted, oil filter and all oils changed, brakes checked and cleaned. Unfortunately Tubbs found the valve guide was knackered so has had to order one in. I have also had an 'Albert666' exhaust deflector fitted by Tubbs. He has also done some general TLC to the bike, and all being well, I am hoping to pick it up next Saturday, if the part arrives in time. So, fingers crossed....... |
