Ultrasonic bath. A decent Chinese one with the heater and all that jazz.

If poking jets, just harvest nylon bristles from a cheap dish brush.

I used to get a blocked main jet every now and then in the Zenith 30IZ on my Rebel. Rather than sort it properly, I carried a Bic biro shell (with end cap removed) in the car. Whenever it clogged, I'd pull over and remove the ink stick bit out with my teeth, take air filter off and blow out jet with hollow Bic tube.

Does the same with no air filters & the choke is fine.

Had my bike insurance renewal through today, due to a variety of excuses I’ve done about 150 miles this year.

Bennetts are wanting £126+their renewal fee of £20. GTF fee.

Quote online they’re offering £190! Ffs

Who is your favourite insurers?

I have loads of NCD and no accidents or points etc.


Less annoying tag line.
Just when I thought I was out they dragged me back in.
