Default I've got an MOT

God help you all!!!!


To all those doubters last night

£2.50 for an orange indicator light - all it failed on was a white indicator.
Plus advisory for the exhaust

Not fussed at all about the clutch lever - when I phoned before they asked how much of it was left, and said that'll be fine.

So:- which years of ZX exhaust headers will fit?
And many thanks for the horn advice - couldn't live with out you I've disconnected it now, but can I just get an inline fuse for it & leave it as it is?

G, J & A. So 600 G1 like yours to 636 A1 like TSM's, (was).

You could, but it will be permanently live, which may not be a problem, but I doubt the actual fault will take any longer to fix.

Squid's advise on horn problems is undoubtedly the best. Now I carry a roll of gaffa tape everywhere I go and my horn isn't a problem any more!

First you have to start with a broken horn.
different symptoms require different solutions - mine certainly did not involve gaffa tape
