Re: jibbers half a 3AJ rebuild
I kicked my 3AJ for months when my starter was on the fritz and I couldn't figure out why things weren't well. Also when you blow a main fuse the bike will kick over and still power the lights.

Its like "back to the future" for me looking at this, brings back memory's. 
The gold bits look very "trick" yes you certainly have the Tenere addiction.

Re: jibbers half a 3AJ rebuild
As Dave has so rightly pointed out there is no cure for Teneritis (only buying more) but here at Tenere HQ we have been hard at work in the Tenere laboratory (1970`s leaky caravan) on some pain relief. 
As you guys all know the biggest problem is the wife reading the bank statement, so this new cream has Mezo`s super high power chilli extract inside & the idea is when the wifey is reading said bank balance you rub this cream in to both her eyes thus causing temporary blindness & allowing you enough time to leg it out the door.

Re: jibbers half a 3AJ rebuild
Pyramid are crap, there is a fork boot thread on here somewhere & we found that those are the ones to avoid, the correct ones fit in the groove at the bottom covering all that part.
