Re: Hello
Hello guys, thanks for the welcome.
I live on the south Kent coast and am really getting used to my Burgman now which for me is more of a hobby than a necessity now that I am retired. I bought it because having previously owned a Majesty 400, I was looking for something with an electric foot and automatic transmission now that the arthritis is making my old classic Brit bikes a bit of a pain to ride. I have since sold the Matchless but am keeping the M21 largely for sentimental reasons. Since buying the Burger, I have followed the good advice on here and stripped and de-glazed the clutch which has stopped the annoying clutch judder. I have also changed the engine oil and filter, air filter and gearbox oil, so that although it wasn't actually due, I know it has been done. While I had the lower bodywork off, I have been busy with the ACF 50 because although the bike is only 5 years old there were signs of surface rust on the lower frame rails and centre stand. I guess the original owner wasn't as fussy as me. All for now and thanks for help and advice .
