Have done a couple of trips.. 30 odd miles...nothing too serious...a couple of serious oil leaks (one from the rocker take off at the tank, I used copper washers...would fibre be better?)...gear lever fell off...tacho very jerky...forgot to put any fork oil in....but generally not too much to do!
One job I was pleased with was fitting a new horn into the old altette body as suggested on Paul Goffs site, I found that by modifying the original adjuster on the back the new horn could be adjusted in and out so that it just touched the diaphragm ....making a very impressive noise! Especially so when I called in for some fuel....pressed the horn button instead of the kill....and it wouldn't stop....one way to get attention!!
Pic of oil gauge take off, fitted by some one in the past....I found making up a line that could be trusted a bit tricky....and fitting the gauge itself into the smaller hole in the headlight even more so! Not really sure if it was worth all the effort...it goes straight to 50 psi when you start and doesn't move in the slightest...was expecting it to vary with engine speed?
May well be the actual gauge...£2 at a jumble....so probably not the most precise!
