@SpookDog Yes I think it was someone with a TDR125?
@Stevie-Wonder Sounds like you're moving forward with this, those pattern fuel taps are a bit of a mixed bag but I've bought good ones before. Next time you have to disturb the carb warmer hoses, just bypass the carb altogether and run a single hose from the banjo on the head directly to the one on the thermostat housing. You still get the benefit of the cooling system being self-bleeding when refilling, but it makes the carb a lot easier to remove and UK winters aren't really cold enough to worry about carb icing.
