Just a quick follow up....   after nearly a year since I sold it back to him..  & last start up..

I visited Brian this morning, pulled the bike out of the shed, drained the sump..
gave her a quick check over & tickled the carb...
First kick & she fired into life...   *wink2*
I've sent Brian a link to this forum hoping he will become a member & join us ..    *beer*

G'day Woz.
That's great to hear.
Is Brian the dad or son?
Are you close enough to look over his shoulder?
Cheers
ps: hows the rebuild after the quake?

Brian is the original owners son,   his son in law Jason is "MINDING"  *whistle* the bike for him..
& NO damage after the quake,   nothing to see here...  *eek*
