Worn engines pumping out clouds of black smoke were par for the course "back in the day", you don't see that much these days at all

Matt has been here for many years Kim, needs no welcome and indeed no encouragement 🙄
Nick on the other hand...
Been nipping at the still again have we 😋
Oops,
Suppose its inevitable as I seem to be wearing out faster than my K12S, then again I am 60 tomorrow.

My K 1200s has 35,000 on it which as far as I am concerned is nothing. Agree that anything much over 20k is considered high. Personally it dosen't bother me at all as long as it has been properly maintained.

« on: April 28, 2018, 08:39:18 pm »
Skived off work early this evening rushed home and put on all the gear, bike wheeled out. Starter pressed
........................nothing. Battery had been on trickle charger in preparation for the sun for previous 36 hrs so didn't believe it was the battery but on checking it was 11.6v
Just stuck it on a 30a charger and did a discharge test , looks like a duff cell. Wonder if there is a warranty?
I have e mailed the supplier and ordered another one having had no issues with them over many years.
Its a Motobatt fitted in August 2017.

« on: April 26, 2018, 08:55:31 pm »Could be a big problem if left. The clutch uses mineral oil not DOT fluid. It needs cleaning out straight away otherwise it'll damage all the seals and hoses from the lever to the slave.

Really?
