Heya
With only 5 minutes left, i learn two more things about the bike, firstly there is no way it will pass a warrant of fitness with 'those' mufflers on, you ca'nt talk over them. I got a standard set of mufflers with the bike so i'm going to have to fit them, i recall having a memory of the pervious owner saying that they where hard to change.
I rode the bike back to the garage where it was stored, it was idling nicely, i reached down and pulled the choke level back and forth, and the learned the 2nd thing, the choke was not connected or just not functioning, i would of expected the revs to change as i adjust the choke but the revs stayed the same. Another problem to add to the list.
I parked the bike and went home, a couple of hours of later i realised i'd fail to see if the speedo or temp gauge worked, when i was riding it.
Thanks for your info Satchriossi, i'll try to check if it works next i time i go out.
Cheers
