Great Pics, Paul.

Did you get the bike sent back to UK? or fixed it over there?

You don't need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

Thanks guy's,
Fortunately I was able to get a friend to lift it back to Rome where I had an artic to drive back to UK.
New clutch in and front wheel lifting, suprised me that did. I am planning the same trip again this year so fingers crossed. Just an incesant oil leak I can't find.. Have more pics but on my phone and can't find the lead to down load em

I'll check but it appears to come from the chain side, hoping not to have to break the cases.
