That 6 gallon fuel tank looks good, on my 2006 DRZ400SM it had 9 litres and about 90 miles was time to start looking for a service station. They say in the KLR650 spec that 'the new 10 hole injector gives better mixture control etc'.... The SV650 L7 2016 onwards also started using a 10 hole injector ( well I guess it both started and ran with a 10 hole injector LOL ).

I factored in the fees so no nasty surprises there. As I don't have a Friendface account that route is out but I did consider Gumtree but you just don't get as many viewers or bidders. So, we'll see how it goes. Two of the four items I've put up have already sold and oddly I got several queries about one of them - a very basic Olympic Trip compact. Who knew they were so popular.

The Trip 35 is a very popular camera, you should do well on that.

Room thermostat is independent of boiler flow temperature, there is a control on the boiler itself to regulate how hot the boiler gets the water before it starts to lower the gas flames ( modulation ).

As a householder I don't expect to touch anything on the boiler, British Gas service it once a year and I adjust the heat coming off the radiators by the hall thermostat and TRV's on the radiators.
