Hard to give you a decent appraisal cos I loved so much so immediately I couldn’t see properly Could pick it up tomoz! But as the plates change to 23 on Wednesday and the next day I can pick it up after that is Friday then Friday morning it is! It’s going to be a long week! It certainly looks the part, I'm looking forward to see what you think of it . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Dominator failed to start in the week so I shorted the solenoid so I could use it. Found the starter button/wiring at fault so I'm now gearing myself up to attempt for find the spare somewhere in the sheds. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Found my used part but soon realised it looked the same but the plug was missing some wires, after a bit of though I think I remember it coming off a 125 city fly. Stripped mine out to find a previous repair where the wires had been trapped in the lock stops. Cut out the damage and a bit of solder, heat shrink and tape later. Now refitted and I have a working bike again. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 Happy Sunday Not sure what I'm up to today, not having a proper oven is vexing especially on a Sunday when I look forward to having extra time and experimental kitchen gets under way. Heyho. Probably try out Pedro's Moroccan coffee cos that doesn't require an oven and maybe spatchcock a chicken for a roast as the little microwave size oven can cope with that. Other than that probably fighting with the Garmin Zumo to route through France and pouring over the long awaited BSA What you up to? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
