Yep but when you own and ride a 380. 550 and Kettle at the same time it is easy for us old farts to get confused :lol: :lol:

ok so here we are again,
I took the carbs apart reset the float levels as per the book and excellent advise given by everyone.
Out today she runs ok but still a bit sluggish like she's rich . I stopped at Tuffins in Churchstoke Powys for a cake and a brew came to start her and the kickstart bolt had rattled loose :o so I had to take off the kick start and bump her anyway!
On the upside I sorted(bodged) the richness problem with a elastic band, the choke lever was vibrating and turning on the chokes a smidgin---- laccky band round the lever holding it off RESULT! She fair flies up the dial.
