Like I say in the vid, they are probably a lot nicer in the summer. Thanks for the comment.

Great, thanks.

Yes they collect hydrocarbons from the atmosphere bottle it, and mix it with the fuel they sell.

I had the bike recommissioned before I went to Ireland (see earlier vid). The carbs and tank were professionally stripped and cleaned, new plugs valve clearances checked, carbs balanced and oil and filter changed. I agree that it sounds odd in the vid but the bike runs fine. I shall check for exhaust leaks when I give it an oil and filter change.

Yeh, I'm getting used to it now. It did annoy me at first tbh. I don't have that trouble with the SRAD, I can just let it warm up for a few minutes on choke then off I go.

Enjoy it.

There are lots of fantastic roads in Wales. It's kinda pick one and you won't be disappointed. I don't think that I have ridden the A470 yet.

Coz bikers LOve a straight rd? Couldnt think of anything worse tbh

@@chrisjames7803 the irony.

I loved it... Lovely views, a few tight bends, and a chance to 'open it up' every now and then.

Don't forget to check out my new Chanel @Faveridesuk

@@Screamifyoumeanit just subbed 👍

Thanks... Scotland is kinda next on my list. It's been on my list for a while, just too far on the KTM and too expensive in the Alfa! It would be lovely on the ZZR though, off to Devon tomorrow.

Chain and sprockets are good. Given them a clean , oil and checked the tension. I've done about 2.5k miles since this vid, so all good so far. Thanks.

Thanks mate. I love it and it has taken me to Ireland and Wales over the last month or so. Well worth digging out of the weeds!

Get it going. I'm loving mine since getting it back on the road, I think Ive done nearly 2.5k miles on mine so far. 1500 in Ireland and 800 miles in Wales last week, off to Devon in just over a weeks time. Lots more vids to come, the start of the Ireland trip next Gospel Pass fave rides on Tuesday (these are easy to edit) and the start of the Ireland trip next Sunday (though not finished editing that yet, it seems to end wrong atm.

​@@Screamifyoumeanitwhat's the story with the honda....❓❓❓

@@MpFz14508 Mmm... Annoyed the hell out of me TBH (lots of past vids)... So hard to work on because everything( frame & engine) are so tight together... You kind of need to remove the radiator even to replace the spark plugs! And then the new 'Chinese' fairings didn't fit! TBH I just gave up and moved on to a new project. It is a lovely bike though, and I will be coming back to it at some point in the future.

I have a few vids in the pipeline, starting with the Barn Find vid i.e. getting it out of the pollytunnel and re commissioning it... Not the best vid , but shows where the bike has come from. Then part one of the Ireland trip, probably mostly onboard vid to be honest. Just go back from a 2 day run from south to north Wales, I did make the effort to do a 'drive by' once... There will be three or four great 'Fave Rides' vids though!

Thanks, fair point... I am starting a new channel called 'Fave Rides UK'... Just 'Enjoy the Ride" type vides... Just don't expect wheelies and lunacy though! I will put a music free version on there... And all the future vids music free too.Thanks.N.

Thanks. Done a few bits and pieces to her over the weekend... I.e. cleaned up the fork oil from the front pads and disks ( forks still leaking for some reason). Changed the LED headlamp bulb because the one I had in before seemed to be able to rotate itself & I ended up blinding people on the way back home. I also cleaned & oiled the chain... So should be good for a trip from south to north Wales next week.

Thanks, yer I did notice the mistake after I posted it. oops.

Thanks, @Captain-Donut. Mine had been standing for over twelve years! I decided to get it recommissioned i.e. tank and carbs cleaned, this was the first trip away on it. I'm old too, I tend to 'bumble around' these days.

@@Screamifyoumeanit absolutely at 60 I tend to just potter around. ( and Brakes are shocking bad., rebuilt good pads )She’s still super fast tho. Glad to some still on the road . Drive safe Sir.

Oh nice one, congrats. I went for a nice long ride on Bank holiday Monday, 100 miles/ 3hrs pretty much non stop. very comfortable to ride and quick when you want it to be. I re did the fork seals today, I'd put them in upside down... oops. There will be a more ZZR vids coming soon.

I think it is the same frame as the 750 so if you change the triple clamps (to K6) you should fit the K6 forks in too.

Thanks, still in a bit of pain. It was 5 weeks ago now , only just starting to feel like getting back on a bike again.

I can recommend the Nitron, a bit expensive though. I'm getting the carbs cleaned and tuned up professionally next week, I'm fed up with taking them in and out of the bike and it still not run properly (or leaking)... Though he did explain that the needles probably just need lifting one notch. Thanks for the comment. I looked at your vids. That big hole in the engine looks a bit scary!

Yes it scared the crap out of me when it blew up

Not looking to sell, it's just a project for me... Make me an offer...

Thanks, yes, loving the KTM... The SRAD is sorn'd for the winter ATM. The KTM just goes when I want it to, it never misses a beat. I could never had done a long trip like that on the SRAD, I would ache all over... Saying that, I could do with a comfort seat on the KTM though!
