Great bit of investigation there! Sometimes it drives you mad trying to track down oil leaks

Bike is done!
Well my second Kettle is done. It went a lot easier than the 1st one. It is a good example and will be included in the for sale section.
(*Yes, it has a tank from a 76 kettle!)
*List of work done is on listing for sale here.
All functions mechanically, electrical, hydraulics etc, work as new. There are no issues. This bike starts on the first tick, rev’s perfect and shifts smooth. No riding issues.

*The tail of the two Kettles!

Any chance of fetching it over here on a cargo flight?
Proof that four strokes are over complicated

Re: Sky's 2nd kettle begins...
That’s real dedication! Super results.
Do you find that the OEM pipes sounds slightly more mellow than the Delkevic’s? I wasn’t sure & a phone isn’t ideal. They both sounded great, maybe a little more bass on the ‘74 as it idled back down?
Cheers for the share,
Mike
