Exactly. I’ve been out in a car for a quick trip. The roads are wet and seem to resemble fields at present around here. In addition to that it’s consistently tipping it down. Nah, I’m in no rush!
I’ve also got the Keihin carbs in bits too. I’m thinking while I’m at it I’ll change the filters, oil, maybe do the belts as well. The valve clearances were done at the last engine rebuild too (by the same guy who’s currently got the tank) so may be due a look as well. I’ll bring the bike into the conservatory when it stops raining and have a look at it - maybe that should be IF it ever stops raining!
I think I’ve decided on a red scheme with possibly a single white stripe too, slightly off set from the centre line. I’m still struggling to find the seat cowl though. I’m fearing it may have got lost / left behind in the house move, although I see not how...

Ps any ideas where I can source a fuel filter from? I think they’ve changed designs since the early bikes and are now not available?
