No, all that does is stop the oil that was on its way back to the tank held in the pipe from draining back, a egg cupful at most.Will also check the ball in the return suction pipe, which might prevent leakage between feed and return side of the pump going down to the sump.
Yes it's the same onePresume the bolt is same as on earlier models. A screw 3/8 x 26 with a screwdriver slot. Intended to go in so it's flush with the case. Punched to lock.
What is the correct length of that bolt? Or rather how long shall it go in? No hurry to get an answer.
Yes I can open the oil tank cap (only just) it doesn't have a dipstickNice job. Seems you can open the oil tank without interfering with the seat. Had problem with that on one of them.
I'm not back at home until MondayBaz, could we trouble you for a broadside view of the whole machine? Id love to see what the B50 looks like in that chassis with that Gold star tank topping it off!
Thats a fabulous looking bike baz. The B50 looks right at home in there and the sweep of the exhaust pipe is masterfully done. Even the relationship between the reversed gear lever and footrest looks like it should work well. I bet itll sound good through the Gold Star 'silencer', but will it twitter on the over run?Here's a shot
