If I didn’t need a new garage roof and the house pointing…..
In a weak moment I was heard to say perhaps I should sell a bike.
Besides the market is less than buoyant.

Re: Air filters,plug caps.
On my late Sport (K1) I had red NGK 5 Kilo ohm plug caps. After some years I got hold of some black NKG SB01F which were 1 kilo ohm.
I can’t say I noticed a difference.
The stock airbox does require a bit of dismantling to change the filters. I would advise to keep this standard.

I lost a spring from a Bing carb. It turned up 5 months later in a welly boot ten feet away.

Re: Rectangular headlamp questions
If I hadn’t sold my K1 rectangular headlight I could have stuck it it my son’s luggage as he is on his way to the South Island (but close enough.)
My Concave Cibie is very good so I’d never go back.

Re: Newbie concerns
The clutch arm will waggle about especially if the cable is disconnected, so as long as it is adjusted OK that will be fine. The little dimple on the arm that bears on the clutch pushrod usually wears eventually.

Re: Right foot rear brake.
I don’t have a problem with my K1 with a right hand gear lever and left foot brake nowadays. This is because this bike has clip ons whereas now my other two have raised bars so I adjust.
I would like a fully enclosed chaincase though.

Re: I took my Tachometer apart, can it be saved?!
That’s a really good outcome. Both mine are of the mechanical variety but it has spurred me on to try and repair my electronic tacho from a BMW which stopped working.

They now have to compete with the Voge 800. After all they come from the same neck of the woods.

Re: I'm rich, but not in a good way
You have checked the chokes- the piston tips perish. This causes permanent enrichment . If you remove the floatbowls you can double check for evidence of rubbing of the floats on the bowl. Bit of tubing on the choke jet then try blow/suck, should be sealed if off. I have resorted to removing choke j...

Re: Brake cylinder
There should be a number on the back cylindrical area facing the bars so may be hidden. Something like 6x25+16, which is a 16 mm m/c.

I have reduced the Kanguro parts manual to around 3.5Mb.
Too large to link I think.

Re: X3 Parts book
I scanned my parts book at the weekend as an antidote to listening to the Bolton match. A couple of numbers pages are blurred so can redo.
Large filesize.
