Ahhh, carbs. a black art that requires copious amounts of patience and a fire extinguisher. Good news big fella. Just some info for you, the length of those HT leads, far better to be as short as possible. (Unless you plan on drying ya smalls on them on your next ride out.)

Now do me a favour and keep hold it for as long as you can, there's something about these old Ef's that seem to improve with age, they have always drawn an interest everywhere you go at anytime. I have had some great comments about my bike over the years, mostly by the ones that know the amount of work that goes into such a project. It pleases me when other people smile about something you've built, though not the reason for doing it in the first place, just a nice fringe benefit. The srutineers comment on it every year, people ask me to sell it every year, I'd rather cut me cock off! Nice job fella, I forgot I helped you out a little, I must have been in a good mood that day. Well done mate, looks like a corker.

Cheers quazi , will never sell it I'm very much of a hoarder and get attached , you must have been in a good mood you helped me out a lot , Ive wanted a Efe since I was 15/16 like I said to you before and when I rode it today I actually went past the pub where I was watching the bikers on their efe's ZEDs gpzs years ago to the disgust of everyone cause of the noise it made me feel 16 and I was actually riding one , ive had modern sport bikes rode loads of mates bikes but I must admit the efe has some right grunt much better.
