At long last I've managed to start the Fireblade, now that gives you a smile

But next time I start it I wont be kneeling next the the exhaust manifold especially when it pops back with a puff of flame

Thanks to the advise from Mark G yesterday regarding my fuel leak, as when I stated to prime the carbs today the leeks have now sealed.

Now to plumb the cooling system and tidy the wires up and see if I can get it moving with out pushing it

Cheers

Congratulations!!! I'm very happy for you!
My day is still far, but I'm happy to know it will come too and I'll take caution to avoid kneeling by the manifold too

Best regards,

Congrats! I cant believe its been over a year since I first started the engine in mine. It was a brilliant feeling though
