Been away from here for a bit putting some miles on the M900, mostly trouble free, except for a hiccup caused, luckily, by no more than a dodgy plug. I look like the incredible hulk riding a monkey bike, but its surprisingly comfortable and what a blast!!
Anyway to the point.
My tank catch broke but I have been able to repair it successfully and quite neatly with some threaded M4 bar embedded in JB weld.
However I cant for the life of me see how the spring is meant to engage and exactly what its function is. Mine is slack but the catch seems to work fine.
It would be great if someone could take a photo that shows how the spring ends are supposed to engage to put it in torsion.
