The current topic

I have the greatest respect for electricians. They work with this mystical power which makes a motorcycle go – it is invisible but its effects aren’t. The effects can be interestingly exciting if you’re watching someone being affected, though less funny if you’re the one getting the jolt from either a 6v or 12v system fitted to the average British motorcycle.

I didn’t set out to discuss the electrical system of a motorcycle… What I went to the workshop to try and do was to sort out a seat and the oil tank for this project.

Unfortunately, all attempts to locate the required fittings for making an oil tank have failed. I’m certain it was possible to buy such things a while ago and my inability to source the required items – including an outlet feed with a filter and a return feed with a rocker feed off it – is more to do with my lack of internet skill than there
