That could be an empty box for all we know. If there is a battery in that box, don’t you need a bike to fit it too. Have you found it yet?

[Stig]

Box is actually empty

BUT, battery is on charge for a first charge when filled

And no, I’ve not found the bike yet. That’s the next task

Today’s progress, for the doubters out there it’s not AI generated!

All I can say is, about bloody time

It looks a bit like green pond water.

It took about 15 seconds on the button but it fired up and sounded great.
I’ve removed the tank, dropped the bowls off and cleaned them out. I’m just waiting for new bowl gaskets to arrive to be able to reassemble
I’ve ordered a clutch slave rebuild kit too as that has leaked. If the kit doesn’t cure it I may have a spare in my box of goodies.

While I’m waiting for parts I’m gunna replace the brake fluid and have the rear tyre replaced. I’ll also drop the oil and change the filter too
Next I need to look for a replacement front tyre next as it’s well out of date and probably has a flat spot after being stood for so long
