update

25.03.2008

Hello, first post in ages..
Been away from the bike, working on the website tho, which as you can see (If you’ve been here before) has grown a side column. Yet to be populated, I think the side column will be great for the future - single column layout was interesting, but somewhat limiting!

Bike wise still cleaning the carburetor rack, toying with idea of purchasing a Dremel tool. I think this would help speed up the de-rusting and general polishing tremendously.

Unfortunately - or fortunately since I’ve now decided on a different product, my Keyster carburetor rebuild kits are lost in the post. I’ve decided to go for Honda gaskets (without needles) likely from David Silver in UK.

I’m also looking at rebuilding the ‘between the gauges” …

Last day of January - update, & my intentions list!
