Maybe hold judgement until it ain't so fecking freezing?Today i went to Sainsbury's for some stuff and the Enfield had it's spaz attack of carb icing, it only last for about a minute then it clears.I'm just going to live with it for now!!

The one I used to use was a wynns product but I can't seem to find it online. The one I've linked has good reviews though.
Cheers mate i will get some of that.
I'd imagine it has the same or similar ingredients to the wynns stuff. It really did work a treat on the ss. Prior to using the additive, on the real cold days, the bike would have little fits of cutting out and rough running, usually when trying to open it up a Lil, I think as the speed increases more cold air is forced past the carbs or some such. Anyhu, it was dodgy as fuck trying to pull of overtaking maneuversCheers mate i will get some of that.
Today i went for a short run on the Enfield for some petrol, this is the first time i have put fuel in it for ages!! Mpg is realy good on it, spec says 87 mpg and some people have stated they have had 200 miles on a tank full of fuel.
I can't tell at the moment as my speedo doesn't work but i will sort it soon and see if i can get 200 miles on one full tank. Anyway the bloody salt is on the roads and it's still cold but not as bad as it has been.

That's fuck all, I can get 200 miles out of a tank on the ST4Today i went for a short run on the Enfield for some petrol, this is the first time i have put fuel in it for ages!!
Is that at 40 mph??That's fuck all, I can get 200 miles out of a tank on the ST4
The thing is my replacement fuel tank is smaller than the original tank so i don't know what it's off and the spec is it running on fuel injection. It was stated that the carb gives better mpg apparently so another thing i can look at later.

40 mph is first gear dudeIs that at 40 mph??
Are you sure it's not more or less the same as the last tank??? You know?? Like after the modification/customization who knows what capacity it hadIs that at 40 mph??
200 to 250 miles depending on riding mode, on a tank full for big SonjaToday i went for a short run on the Enfield for some petrol, this is the first time i have put fuel in it for ages!!
Is it a 60ltr tank?200 to 250 miles depending on riding mode, on a tank full for big Sonja
24L my good man
Today i washed the Enfield to get the salt off the bike as i went out on it a few days ago when it got covered in the stuff!! I noticed some small patches of surface rust on the wheels, it's nothing major so i will sort that tomorrow. It's actualy realy nice out today, nowhere near as cold as it has been, tomorrow is looking good so i will go for a ride out. I also had to sort the back exhaust fixing point out as it had come off the exhaust and got the air filter to fit perfect on the carb as when i did it the first time it wasn't on properly!!

Had a positive experience with an insurance company today! It’s not very often you can say that.
I then went out on the bike, took some dodgy roads to the ‘Cowshed’ in Tideswell for a veggie sausage sarnie, then we bimbled further, stopped for a couple of photties ‘cos I know how much you like them.
Onward and upward for a hot chocolate at the’Old Forge’ in Monyash
