Well the old girl got me home..........just.
Had a 100km blast out through round the lake.
Lost a foot peg after 30km which entered a new time zone when it fell off and is lost forever
Right indicator button lost it's spring, so it's quite difficult to turn on.
Bike lost power when coming to traffic lights twice. This was after an extended high throttle run. It didn't stop, just seemed to be lack/ or incorrect fuel pressure. Was thinking fuel pump as mine appears to buzz
But my main concern is a slipping clutch. Tried adjusting but think it may be oil on the plates. It's fine when cold, but as it heats up, starts to slip. Any ideas.
Apart from that, she's old and heavy but comfortable All in all, great to be back on 2 wheels.
