(might help with this sponsered slm then lol)

got the carbs back today, gave the whole gubbins a real cleanout, set all the floats to 9.3mm, built the thing back up again and stuck it back on the bike:yo:
i didn't really like the way the rear footrests were part of a big metal contraption designed to be used as a bungee secure or something like that:dunno: so i cut them off and repainted them! now they are hung and looking ok.
still havn't got round to the loom----maybe tomorrow:p
