Re: A very slow build of a custom traveller
Ive just replaced the wood on my traveller and it is a very satisfying job, take your time and be prepared for welding once the back has been removed.

gear selection
well I went out today and did about 40 miles, during the journey my gear selection got harder to the point that I have to really pull into gear.

I used my airline and gently blew the fuel pipe to the tank and the problem appears to be ok now, I'm just wondering weather its worth fitting an inline fuel filter?

Can anybody advise me please.
