Hi to all, Firstly let me thank everyone for the help, advice and support from you all in this most excellent of clubs, without which I would probably be sitting in my Man Cave with a bottle of rum and a 7/16 Whitworth ring spanner sobbing uncontrollably while cursing at a pile of bits that vaguely resembled a Vincent.
I filled all orifices (of the bike) with various lubricants, propped up a funnel full of fuel, kicked it over a few times without ignition to get some oil through the system, plug back in...ignition on....Two kicks and it roared into life....off with the choke and it sat there purring like a chicken I spent a couple of minutes whooping like a politician on payday then checked for oil return...all good, thanks to the the help from all you guys the timing case is as quiet Sarah Palin at a MENSA meeting.
Just a few little bits and pieces to sort and hopefully she will be back on the road.
