its running $\:D/$ $\:D/$
bled the oil pump this morning, left carb decides to leak fuel [clean again]
but its sorted.
sounds good with nikons. as soon as i get the tank and plastics back from the
painter, i will stick a video of it running, or may do it sooner with the spare tank i have

ignore the cloth around the rear shock res [waiting for the bracket for it and a few other bits to come back from the platers, [no rusty bolts on this bike
