Hi all,

Yes she does sound wonderful and pulls like a train, need to sort out a couple of leaks from the gearbox and have just completed a rewire, done as close to original as possible with an extra headlight earth. I will post a picture of the other side when I have finished painting my newly acquired burgess air filter.

Roll on the summer!

Don't panic !
The right oil tank is surely an Ariel one, that fits and delivers oil ?

If that is the case I have the right one and luckily it's in the right colour and already bolted to my bike!
