Curvy firing on one cylinder (water related)

What would you rod it with?

Mind out of the gutter Clive.

It was. beside I don't think that would do a thorough enough job, wouldn't touch the sides.

That should help a lot.

Either method will do the trick, specially f you use the extension nozzle

Thanks for staying on topic Mav.

It worked, mostly. stuck the straw from the can right up the drain hole and squirted. A shedload of brown/grey gunk came out, then got the fairings off, and radiator forward to pull the plug cap off, sprayed with more air duster, more gunk came out, repeated a few dozen times, with a bit of WD40 on occasion. plugged it all in and it worked, though seems a bit rough. Will take it out for a spin dry tomorrow, when it isn't raining.

Give it another squirt before/after the run. Will help.
A good run will do it the world of good too.

And get that Fenda extenda sorted

Glad its better

Forgot to ask on the fenda extenda, can the clip holding the speedo cable to re-used once it has been unclipped once. Easiest way of installing the fenda extenda seems to be to take the fender off.

Yes, although its a bit tricky to squeeze back in place. You can zip tie the speedo cable loosely to the brake hose to keep it in place.

I used silicon sealant to glue my extenda in place, let it set overnight. Use the fixing screws if you want to, but I didn't bother.
