Out of interest which joint was it that was leaking MacMacV2 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 27, 2023 4:06 pm Finally got round to the post Devon tlc for Nue Red.
Sorted out the exhaust leak so hopefully less popping n banging. Whiped lots of clag off the swing arm... damm scotoiler. Topped up said scotoiler. Didn't adjust the chain after the 800+ miles...damm scotoiler...Hahaha. Took a leaf out of Tony's handbook of not cleaning it apart from the rear wheel had a wipe off
To be fair there is a hosepipe ban in place.
Rear header. It's a Moriwaki full system. Keep tightening the clamp but there was still movement with the weight pulling it down. I had a fiddle losening the can straps & popped the spring off the link pipe. This gave me the wiggle room to put a bolt through the footrest hanger. Should hold it all in place now. Just hope the bracket don't snap!sirch345 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 27, 2023 6:42 pmOut of interest which joint was it that was leaking MacMacV2 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 27, 2023 4:06 pm Finally got round to the post Devon tlc for Nue Red.
