Yup, a big meet, (bike show & autojumble). 6 miles from Basingstoke on the Andover Road. Well worth going to.

will look into that then and see if i can get there.
came back from holiday and took her out for a spin. loved it  Grin. then bought her back and whilst still hot i dropped all the coolant with the ferox in out of the system. WOW. considering i had already flushed it through some really nasty coloured stuff came out with lots of bits floating in it. the rad when you look in the top now looks alot cleaner. filled her up again and took her out for another quick ride.
problem now is after leaving her over night came into work this morning and there is some oil on the floor under the front. torch out and looks there is oil coming from the lowest pulley on the crank case cover  Shocked Huh Roll Eyes. guessing i am going to have to get my spanners out again.

Ok how does that work? Have you still got to have the front of the engine off?

no you just add it to the oil,if the leak is because the seals have gone hard due to lack of use
/age then hopefully the leak will stop,its not a miracle cure but will help in some cases but i did buy a seal on ebay just in case for a fiver
