    I had problems with a T120V a few years back. It was not a first kick starter, and was impossible to get a good tickover. It turned out the slides were so worn it was sucking air in instead of petrol up the pilot jets. I replaced the slides but it still wasn't right. I had to replace both carbs in the end. That worked.

    Poor old Al, I cringed the first time I saw that, but thats choppers for you, especially on gravel - glad he was okay.
    Having said that, when I was younger I fitted a new bikini fairing to my then bike. Next day after work, I rode home, dad had raked the gravel drive, I did my usual turning around trick, carried straight on, wrecked the new fairing. Then I learned all about fibreglass, plastic padding, spray painting etc 😮😅😂

    I was in Cornwall a few years ago working on the railway lines. Used to go out and about on our day off. I tried s so called authentic Cornish pasty and it was not different from the Cornish pasties we used to get from Scunthorpe market. In fact the ones from scunny were bigger and cheaper. The fish and chips in Cornwall were crap as well compared to up north and don't even start me on the beer from down there. Was down there for weeks on end at a time. Devon way better though. Kent was my favourite out of all the southern counties. Great ale and fish n chips. Nice people too.

    I had a1969 Bonniville, stock, a great bike. Sold it to friend. He decided to make a chopper out of it. He rode it for a week, wrecked it, broke his leg. I really regret selling that bike. But at that time the bike wasn't worth much.

    What made you slip was the gravel and the turn of your front fork-front wheel, which has now been extended, + the speed... and because you are not ''used to that'' anymore, you miscalculated.
    This could have happened to anyone, so no shame.
    Fortunately, your ego is a little damaged??
