I've been ignoring/refusing to acknowledge a broken float bowl gasket and some rear wheel adjusters in truly shocking condition. Easy to fix, but I just can't be arsed.
What about you lot? Or are you all gods of the workshop? ____________________ The Old Apprentice |

A closer shim that's pretty much on the recommended limit. I've got to do belts next year so it'll get done then.  |

I've been ignoring the dirt on it. Might actually do something about it tomorrow. Then again, I might just go out on it and have a full English somewhere. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you. Don't take it personally.

It does need doing on cars. Except ones with hydraulically operated valves usually.
Mine are right on the limit on my TTR, the oil needs changing, I've done about 15 hours on it, the book says every ten. I ignored my front tyre for months. I had an AC10 that had worn down into a slick in the middle with strips of knobblies on the edges. I got 7,000 out of that tyre! It was, however, unusable off-road after 3,500.
I've also been ignoring the swinging arm bearings, I don't want to fight a rust spindle. I also don't want to admit that she's running lean after the exhaust change. ____________________ Current:1991 Honda MT50 (Soon to be a H100/MTX/MT5 hybrid), 1976 Honda Cub C70, 2005 Honda Varadero 125, 1993 Yamaha TTR250 Open Enduro , 2010 Road Legal Stomp YX140, 1994 Honda CRM 250 MK III, 1999 Cagiva Mito 125, 1992 Honda CB400 Super Four, Stomp T4 230, 1984 Honda H100s, 2009 Sym XS125K

I really ought to replace the cracked fork spindle clamp on the Enfield if I don't want to find the front wheel making its own way home.
The silly thing is, I actually have the new one and could probably have changed it in the time It's taken to type this message.
