 Re: Top Tips
Buying a purflux filter spanner, having my old man make a king pin press (20+ years ago), getting a decent grease gun, and trying not to buy stuff on ebay while drunk.

 Re: Top Tips
When setting the points to the static firing point, use one of the main headlamp bulbs instead of a test lamp to set the points box to the right angle. Just connect the wires, they're right there in front of you anyway!

 Re: Top Tips
Daggy rear wings, with screw holes rusted through? Too incompetent to weld? Too skint/stingey to replace with new wings? No probs! Just buy a role of aluminium tape and make good! Will last for years AND looks like stylish Robri trim (from a distance, in the dark, when you're drunk). Attachment:
