    She doesn’t like the cold on her full rad, but for slower trips around the freezing mark or above,,it’s all good.

    Thanks, it was a blast to redo. Did you have a different handle back then as I notice you are a new member, so welcome back!
    Only thing I’m waiting on now is to pull the engine one last time and swap in the 5 spd. May end up resleeving, and rebuilding the engine at the same time probably but that’s still to be decided.
    The sleeves and upsize kits for these wet sleeve British engines are still available, and I’ve always wanted to try to rebuild one so….
    Cheers.

    Just one more mod and then I swear it’s finished. Kind of like one more strop, razor, watch, brush or kitchen knife.

    OMG Shaun! It’s exactly like that.
    Hehe.
    Although to be fair, I do almost have enough watches, and razors..
    Almost…

    There was a meme sometime ago that basically had Einstein in front of a board with an equation
    The equation was the formula for the perfect number of razors.
    X+1
    X= the current number of razors that I have
