  1. I definitely Would not use petrol, modern fuels are nasty stuff and the vapour is very volatile, unless you like the significant risk of going up in a ball of flame 🔥 Even outside....... Any decent proprietary de-greaser will be fine, but may not be necessary. Wipe the sump out with a cloth and if there's nothing there it should be ok. As Embee said, get the old clutch cover off before you replace the sump plate and chase/flush anything through if necessary.

  2. Finally!! after 7 months my Cat N NC750SA 2016 was united with me (wife said, my face was glowing bright). The delivery driver mistakenly started it as they are supposed to check on delivery, I quickly switched it off. His mistake shows the battery is not drained and the vehicle starts.

It is possible to take the whatsit though and you even get people who want to pay more because that must make it even safer. Andy

  5. They are taking it to a level that's stupid. The old disc had grooves in it like record (that's a vinyl to the kiddies). The new pads will have started to get matching grooves. Put a mismatched pair together and instead of fitting and making the contact area bigger they meet point to point and gap to gap. They wear like **gg**y and brake like a greased shopping trolly. Eventually they either wear out of wear to match. If one is past its best it'll wear out. Your pads have started bedding in with the wrong disc and it will cost you a few miles. It'll sort itself out. A

  6. Should replace disc along with pads , but as you only had the pads done a short while ago they should be perfectly ok

  7. I don't use a dealer. I train them, so see the level of recruit, the pressure they put them under, the management etc. Some are OK, some shouldn't be trusted with lego, none take care I do with my own work. Andy
