Well nothing much else to do so I've pulled the cover off the Bimota and set about binging out of it's deep sleep. It been best part pf 10 yrs since l rode it out on the roads, just before l went in for Cancer treatment. Having read on different forums the nightmares that can greet you whist doing this l was dreading to see what l might find.

First job was to clean out the carbs luckily l put it to bed with 4 start fuel, the bowls were found to be as clean and the jets clean and free a major result. Obviously now in need of a new battery, a complete fluid transfusion, air filter and engine tune up. Looks like were looking at least another 3 weeks min before we might be let loose on the roads again so no rush will keep you posted

That is beautiful and a good way to celebrate your continued health wins(I speak from experience)

If you feel the need to lay it up again might I suggest race fuel or Aspen petrol.

It should save you hassle.

Cheers
