Hi all,
Today, I decided I had to get the bike running!
When I tried the injectors were still blocked and it wouldn't fire up.
I took them out again and gave them an unceremonious tap or 9 with a hammer!
I then got the engine to run and it sounded/felt smooth. The noise I reported before stopped and I was able to ride round the car park... No rear brake yet but hey I was chuffed!
Next jobs: rear brake, oil and collant change and whatever else I can find. needs repainting too but will focus on the mechanical first.
Best,
Neal
