One of my 750's looks just like that, same barrels and timing cover makes it look like an 850.... or is that an 850 engine and 750 side panel?

I like those silver barrels...

What exhaust system is that? Looks stainless (no blueing)
Cheers

I put it on the help keep shite off the frame and engine front. Also, have heard the old wives tale of how a front flap can help prevent a nail from impaling in the rear tire. Some 20k miles on this bike seem to suggest its working.

It’s a 750, with 850 style barrels and a Mk3 850 timing cover.

Does the anti wet sump plunger work ?

Took a short ride out with a friend who’s just completed a rebuild of his bike he’s owned since he was 18. Has the original annular discharge black cans still going (although one’s a bit rattlely now) meaning when in front of me I couldn’t hear him at all

Mine is of a similar build and it still wet sumps, new oil pump as well.

I have a Mk3 timing cover on my bike. It's probably fair to say that it slows down the rate of wet sumping rather than stops it.

@Shep57 & @daveforty , do you guys kick your bikes to TDC when you park it up? Getting the pistons (rods) right up there seems to help.
I have found it slows the rate a fair bit - 2 weeks and only a third of the high-low range on the dipstick.
Cheers

A handy tip which I must try for myself, cheers Rob

I haven't knowingly done that, but I see why it is worth doing. A (late) new years resolution....

I’ve always loved the month of May as it usually means, in the UK at least, the start of some warmer weather. We’ve been lucky again this year though as April has been good again.
Anyway, here’s another reason for me to like May this year.
