Hello! I have a question

Post by GaryBode69 »

Hi all,
I'm not new to the forum as such as I have had an account for a while but have not got around to posting - so hello!
I own a 750 C1 with around 18k on the clock in Persimmon Red, based in the UK.
I've had the bike since the mid/late 1990's.
I''ve been working through a few jobs recently and have a burning question relating to airbox to carb rubber ducts.
I'll post that question outside of this post.
good to meet you all.
Gary

Only in Derby as well!

I'm not on the road yet - just fitted new airbox to carb rubbers after having carbs fully cleaned inside and out.
Brakes (also refurbed) to refit front and back
and then on with the body work.
Then the slight challenge of getting it running again after the carb work!

Mine's not been on the road for 3 years!
I would post a 'before' picture if I could work out how to do it!! :?:
I got as far as clicking on the image button, do I need to have the picture stored elsewhere on a public server?

When you click on Post Reply, under the SAVE DRAFT PREVIEW SUBMIT buttons there is OPTIONS and UPLOAD ATTACHMENT, click UPLOAD ATTACHMENT then CHOOSE FILE and it should open your Documents on your PC, select the pic you want then click ADD THE FILE, then click PLACE INLINE. Well that's how I do it on my laptop, I don't use mobile phones so I don't know about them
