Slight leak from the header pipe. It was an absolute bugger to locate, but a bit of talc showed the way. I'd assumed it would be coming out of the engine side, but it's where the stub met the downpipe - forgot to mention this earlier

Had to jinx me, didn't you?
Got it back today, running nicely. Checked over the essentials, all good, needed to ride it to Wigan tonight for date-time. Got off the M6 and into Wigan town and it starts losing power. Pulled over and removed earphones to discover large rattles. Bugger. Engine then siezed completely. Second crank destroyed in 3 months. |

Still full of oil, so don't know, don't care. I'm going to source a new lump, put it in and sell it. I've had enough.
