Popping through the air box?
Been out on the storm today and did a 60 mile plod along, nothing fast, and the old girl started to pop through the air box at low revs and after a brief stop at a junction it popped as i pulled off. Any ideas??
would make more use of a set of butt sliders these days

Take the quirks off; it's a popular mod, saves a bit of weight and less bits to worry about.
You can always refit them when you sell it.
I also have some idiosyncrasies in the garage I could let you have if you're collecting them.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

No that's ok thanks. I've caught the sparks from the plugs in a tin and will put them on ebay tonight
