Thanks to the advice from Rick (phone) and others for my nc35 that had starting issues and pointing me at servicing options and Andrew Pocock has done a fab job.

Turned out the fuel tap HAD failed and filled the crankcase with oil n fuel but BIG thanks to Andrew for doing a full service and patient advice to get the bike cleaned up and running nicely again.

Removed some gaudy aftermarket indicators as well so it now looks a bit more late 90's !

Can't recommend Andrew enough ... how many people have a lathe on hand to fashion mods as required and very grateful for his experience when it came to refitting all the fairings/tank etc.

Nice couple of evenings in Gravesend to tick off my bucket list :-)

Cheers Chris

It was great to meet you Chris & hope you get to enjoy the bike.
The only problem is, I really want an NC35 of my own now......

Did you get a new fuel tap put on or was a repair kit used

It's good to know that Andrew can sort NC35 probs now as well as NC29's. The last time I heard he was learning his way around the '35 but now he's had a practise on yours I'd be happy to ask for his advice and help if necessary.
