Saw this post and wanted to find most difficult/annoying/frustrating tasks everyone has had on bikes:
"Len you are so right. Fitting the valve lifter cable is the worst job on the Comet (bar setting up the eccentrics). My advice is fit the valve lifter cable before trying to fit the clutch cable. I doesn't make it easy, just easier."
I had an ST1100, I could turn radiator cap about 1/4 turn, to remove the radiator cap meant removing ALL the tupperware....probably about 1/2 hr job at home or 1 1/2 hour job on a windy rainy day at the side of the road ....tupperware scattered over 1/2 an acre !!!
