OK , well robota is definitely a polish word...Czech, not Polish at all Mr Chizota
And robot means robot in polish even if they didn't invent the word... or the robot..
Anyhu, stop messing up laava's thread.

Looks the dogs bollox, keep it as it is.
If only you scrubbed up so well!!!
Hmmmm, never thought about that! Goldilocks and WD40 worth a try maybe?
I would recommend GT85 over WD40, but each to their ownWell at the very least you'll smell nice
I use XCP ONE, good stuff and cheaper than WD40!!I would recommend GT85 over WD40, but each to their own

It smells good and when applying has a slight fizz getting into those places it's needed.

I have just spent two hours in the garage trying to fit cables and am now two hours worse off! The front brake cable which is new has been supplied with a 1/4” adjuster instead of 6mm that now will have to be changed by me driving into town for the correct one on monday. Bit frustrating.
The newclutch cable is roughly in position but also needs a 6 mm adjuster. Also frustrating.
The speedo cable, original and visually good, was in fact seized at the bottom end. I have spent literally days soaking it with penetrating oil and then going at it with pliers to try to get the inner to come free. Nope. So I just started cutting the end back 10mm at a time until I could force the inner out and then went to town to have the square drive smashed into the end. So tonight I fitted it and found the bloody speedo is seized also. It is brand new! Fuck! So I had to demount it, and then spent about an hour making a square drive tool and working away at it with a bit of heat and some wd40 until it came free. I tried to dismantle the speedo but was getting angry. If there had been a Royal Enfield there I would have dashed it against the tank!

I noticed he had two rear racks. One fitted to a bike and one not
The only thing that might be worth looking at is the paint on the top surface of the filler neck, where the cap will seal against.
I would try & rub it down to the bare metal, just on the flat mating face though. If petrol gets under the paint surface it will travel along the metal, under the paint & the paint will start to bubble/lift.
