Remembering that a good long ride will clean out the crusty boogers anyway, dont get too wound up over whether the additives arent working
My 2c

yeah its more of a case of the bike being a haggard old heap (21 yrs old!) that needs a bit of encouragement to loosen up the boogers first i think....its had a few pretty decent thrashes between 2-400km lately but still getting flatspots (at inconvenient times too!) so we thought this stuff might be a help

since i probably wont upgrade for a few months now i'm considering ripping the engine apart after this ride and seeing if there's anything i can do to tidy her up - will be looking for assistance/encouragement/advice from you lot!! (i know bonez wont be able to resist poking around inside a honda

)

It would be my pleasure to pull apart a Honda.

Less pleasureable (but maybe under some coaching) I could put it back together too......

LEAVING at 6am! Come round to my place or meanies if my bike is not there. Will do a driveby the servo on the way out so those waiting there can join up. Fill up on Sat night cause otherwise we wont get outta here till 630 and that is half an hour out of the riding day!

Stop twisitng Storms arm. For once in his life he has a decent excuse.

mp3 - so i cant hear the trumpet riders singing that classic old lullaby "why o why didnt i buy a honda" in their helmets

GPS - cos no doubt cowboyz will get the lead at some point (that, and my speedo is miles out)

Just pull up at my place. If I am not there then rev the shit out of your bike. Meanie and I are going to put some lawnchairs on top of his garage for a prime view of Sleepy Mrs Cowboyz Vs Confused Yod. Should be a fair but entertaining contest.

I have to get new batteries for my GPS too. Got my cig lighter going so all is good.
