    The call went well, I'm going to be sponsored to try CBD for a few weeks.
    Hopefully it helps some of my health issues

    I've heard good reports on CBD, let us know how it works for you. Might take about a month to feel any results.

    The Typhoon is now running and ticking over quite nicely.
    Another slight up-jet due to the idle screw being all the way in, and a needle move, cable adjustment.
    New ignition rear part, now it turns on and off as it should. Have to order a new barrel for it and an inner leg shield.
    @MARSH - got anything lying around for a Typhoon? 2011 plated.....please:)

    Still making the exhaust....
    Nearly fits..
    Been looking at swapping the BMW for a quad, but nobody wants it...
    It's rough looking but it will outlast any quad bike on the market.

    First time using TIG.
    Really easy to do, difficult to set up.
    Bike sounds great now.
    Straight through pretty much.
