Cheers fellas.......she's back together, used Loctite copper silicone, spin round the block, sounds great and rides great! Praise the Lord I thought it was goodbye Mugello :D

Just gotta re-jet to suit the new reed valve and she might be ready for Storm the Orme this weekend.

Now I'm off for a pint!

Thanks again fellas - this forum is the business :D
