I was looking at those holes too and wondering what they did!  Pretty cool that they squirt oil right where you need it!

Are those washers under the rocker block bolts?  I noticed little aluminum flakes appearing under my bolts after a few times on and off but resisted the urge to add washers.  I did clean and oil everything before final assembly.

Got in a few more hours today.  I Wanted to start up my Indian /British bike for the 4th of July to celebrate my new American piston, valve train, and all of the American hours that were put into the head / piston work, but ran out of time.  Had  to go out for the holiday. Maybe one more hour could do it, she's very close!

    LOL !  Got ya, yeah that would have been nice !  The washers I added mostly because it's a test mule head , and it's on and off a lot.   I think is a good thing to do.... but I wouldn't be overly concerned with it, without them.

Next time I'm in there I'll add some nice thin stainless washers on those rocker bolts!

Got my exhaust and crash guard back on.  I learned to only loosely fit the flange at head until you connect and hang the silencer!

After first tightening the flange, I slid on the silencer and had at least an inch from hanger bracket to the frame!  Then I loosened the flange, hung the silencer, and re-tightened the flange.  Much better!

Hopefully, she'll be running tomorrow, there's a tractor pull contest coming up and I think I might have a good chance to win it all!

Took the Enfield out for a little exercise --I have been a bit neglectful since acquiring the V65 Guzzi -- Well, just nothing will compare to the fun and comfort factor of the C5....Genuine pleasure unit above all others in my experience.  For a freeway destination it's the Guzzi for a nostalgic journey the Enfield wins hands down !

 When you're done there we've got some sod that needs turning.

The Sod-Buster!!!   I like it!

I do intend to turn some sod before the sidecar goes on.

 Fixed it for you !

Thanks for that very logical reminder Ice.  More power, better brakes, I think the frame is more robust.  It's just the emotional  part of my brain that keeps confusing me.

Rode in to work, and also broke my little bar end mirror

Fitted a nice new horn toady, a proper metal chromed job, no more cheapo plastic chrome naffness.
Sounds ok and looks tidy.

You can't post that without a picture. It's like internet law or something.

Before I get picked up by the Internet Police, here's a picture of my new horn in all it's shiny shinnyness. Not sure that's word, but it sure is a pretty horn!
Cost £11 from Bike-it.
Sorry Krimp, won't do it again.

Nearly forgot...the bike had it's 1st service this morning!
