Woooooooooo!

First ride of the bike today, ran and pulled brilliantly :D Little rough at first, but once the accelerator pump had bled properly and the idle adjusted it was excellent.

Video below!

Headlight, new fuel tap and filter are on. Got a strap around the front brake lever overnight to try and get bled a bit better, if that doesn't work i'll try a syringe from the caliper.

Should be MOT'd this week!

Clamping the lever overnight seems to have worked well, nice and firm now.

MOT today and she passed with no advisories :D Register tomorrow and then onto the road!
