Mine starts every time, ticks like a swiss watch! passed mot in May with no advisories, shame to have to pull it apart again but hopefully should be the last time.
Maybe good news....consultant says will investigate fitting new stent in six weeks time! hope I can wait that long.

Re: Honda Helix for Sale
Well it kind of is really, its vibration throughout the whole frame caused by wear in the top engine hangar bracket, (30+000 miles) whole engine needs dismounting to gain access for replacement, we’ll get there - eventually.
PS. Trying to send FC a donation but NOT in dollars ,.?)(
PPS - serious enough, not sure if there is room for more stents as I’ve got seven already, living on ‘extra time’ , should have passed in 2014,

I too did not like the idea of donating to the forum in dollars so donated through PayPal directly to Peter's email with a footnote it was for the forum.
