Any reason you want 500 rather than a 350? You're restricting yourself quite a lot.

Indeed; and without him Allen Millyard would just be seen by very few people on Page 28 of MCN!

Not sure I'd outbid him but I'll throw in a bag of Jelly Babies.

Have you had the shocks off? Inside the mounting bush?

My Guzzi has a cable to both carbs, though that is still a flip up so all or nothing. Both my Morinis start (when they choose to) on one choke, never 2. Makes no sense but that's how it is! Wouldn't want to risk messing that up.

Worth signing because it's a pain at the moment. In London you can be happily and legally trundling down a bus lane, only to change boroughs and it to become illegal! I got caught with that a few years back.

Nothing to do with me but there's one on ebay:

Been on for a while so you might get some success with an offer.

A friend of mine hs had a bike brought back from America by James Cargo. Seemed to do the job okay.

Thanks for that Vitesse, although, erm... what happens if someone pays cash on collection? :? Do ebay demand some sort of payment? :? Oy boy, that's a real can of worms. Basically they do everything possible to stop you doing that. You'll find it all but impossible to give someone your address or n...

Yes, Ebay has changed. The seller no longer pays fees but they add it on for the buyer.

Mine has a piece of rubber clearly fashioned from inner tube. Not pretty with a big knot in it but effective.

Cool but why the drum? Is e restricted on the bike's age?

Ah. So that spare I've squirreled away "just in case" isn't rare or special!

Is it the same as a 350 one? I replaced mine with locking one so should have to non locking one in a box somewhere . . .

Yeah, they're all like that!
Green laning you'd be running about 12 psi so you have plenty of scope to experiment.
