Can i just ask did you drain and replace the oil after the incident of flooding the engine with petrol?

You left the bike with a dodgy fuel tap and a tank full of fuel?

How is that not neglecting it?

yep of course i did replace the oil. and about the broken fuel tap, i had no idea it was still letting fuel into the carbs with the OFF position until i came back, i had no idea Honda made such shitty fuel taps. and FYI bikemonkey, i also did not know the rear left carb was broken, because if the float had sealed, it wouldnt have let fuel into the engine.

Seriously now, do you want to sell the bike? It seems you have ignored my offer of free labour and you are nowhere nearer having a running bike. What I would give for it, bearing in mind I have to weigh up transportation cost, you can put towards another bike that works.

Ersan,

No point just sending the engine on it's own ;) Send the whole bike otherwise I can't balance the carbs and I can't check the engine after repair :peace:

Finding a company to transport a complete bike is a lot easier than someone to transport an engine that you would have to palletise anyway.

Just sell it to thunderace & end the madness! After all this, you're not gonna love this bike like most of us do.

On another note, have you seen the price of kinder surprise now?? Toys in them are shit too compared to the good old days
