Still with the original rear mudguard - quite rare these days. I worked in Trafford Park for a while and seem to remember (probably mid 80's ish) going to Knott Mill which at that time had new moto guzzi's in the show room. Great picture!

Looks a great venue - some fantastic bikes there - thanks for posting.

Possibly a fault within the switch itself?
I might have a spare I could post to you to try.

Let me know if you want to try a different switch & i'll have a look to see if I've still got it.
Cheers

You are right Kev- it is a great road which I haven't done for a year or two - those bends that tighten up unexpectedl...

I was caught on Camera going past the Cat & Fiddle yesterday when I saw a bloke on bended knee with a long lens camera snapping pics. After I got home I stumbled across a website that apparantly takes pictures there regularly - & there I am in glorious technicolour! So beware - you can be sn...

Serious Motorway mile muncher with the copious fairing - plus it's an air cooled big Z so it can't be all bad!

Really sorry to hear your very sad news Dave -

That bike has always been absolutely immaculate - Someone could get a bargain

I think this is Keith's diagram - "a picture paints a thousand words"
And gives another name for the screw as 'pilot screw'
