2024年5月18日 · The exhaust is the early commando low style header pipes, which I bought new from AN last year and the flange broke off at the exhaust port within a few months.

2004年11月20日 · Guess what a 19-year-old American does with his Norton on that autobahn.... Most probably the same I did on Norton F1s 30 years later as a German importer, thus finding out the tank breather was calibrated too small- the petrol pump could not cope with vacuum developed by the fuel consumption riding flat-out on that autobahn for a while.

2009年4月15日 · Better yet, stop riding a British air cooled motorcycle engine in hot southern USA climes in the summer. I once sold a Mercury which I had bored 60 over, sourced correct pistons and rings and had running like new.
