That's true Paul and when I think what I've bought and sold over the years and for how much I wish I had them now.
The BSA C12 was nice. Sold mine for £20.
I'll just tidy the C-120 up a bit first, Mark, and do any bits and pieces needed. Chris reckons the carb needs a bit of a tweek. Besides, the C-81 isn't finished yet.
On my return from Newby show, I had to have a bit of a sort out in the workshop. This was due to another horse jumping on the trailer.
After unloading last night. A bit crowded.
Nicely stabled now and room to move.
SWMBO has said I should build a lean to by the workshop wall. I've been saying that for ages. So one side and one t'other.
Haven't done anything Ian. Ticks over nicely. Just enough to make progress. Dies if throttle opened up. Need another carb, Float chamber wrong as well as broken main screw. That's on the side and not top.
The photo's were taken about 7am I think.
I made good time home, despite the extra weight. About 3hrs. Would have been a bit quicker except Appleby Fair lot were leaving. A66 east bound was chock a block for miles. Not to bad heading west.
Just a few photo's I took.
A pause for breath on the A66 top of Stainmoor Friday morning.
The line up. Taken early before certain tardy persons arrived to take the covers off their horses.
And finally some miscellaneous.
Started it up this morning and it ran OK. But only on idle. As soon as I tried to give it some throttle it would rev then die. Everything points to fuel starvation, either the pump is not working right or the carb needs cleaning out.
So It looks as if I wont be taking it to Newby. Disappointment is an understatement. When I get back it will be carb and pump off.
