Got the wheels sorted for Maude, so those went on last night after the RCN02 volunteers meeting.
Also fixed the indicators not working (flasher can).
She had a flat spot when reving, so checked out the carb, and sure enough the accelerator plunger wasnt squirting any fuel, pulled the carb top off and found the valve ok, fuel to the jet ok.
So I dragged out my old jet drills and cleaned out the hole, tested and squirts, then reassembled and tested. All good now.


Took Maude for a blast around the block, she is old but drives well, stops great and steers as she should.
So she is all ready for Grass skids. may even drop her on the Dyno to scare the big boys.
Stocky wheels with caps and dress rings.


Then as I was sitting on my thinking chair, I took a couple of pics of the Sisters together.




Its gunna be a fantastic weekend.
