Balanced carbs on the storm and the fazer, neither needed any adjustment, but neither had been done in my ownership. Glad I know they are both set up right now.
Budget storm gradually on the road to spangliness.

Today I cut the yellow faded plastic lenses off of my GT250M clocks and replaced them with some glass ones from an old cx clock set. Also had to evict numerous families of spiders (sorry Frank!) that had taken up residence in the clocks.
I have also zinc plated various bits and bobs of brightwork from the Suzi. A very satisfying process turning bits of rusty metal into shiney bits to be bolted back on. :thumbup:
