More on here than i expected to be honest!


On another note... do any of you M10 owners fancy an inlet manifold and rocker cover? ive got them lying about, and need the space, yours for Ԛ£30 and the cost of postage? Ideal for polishing up.

I think they are great - far from underpowered and reasonaly economical.
