On my return from picking up this purple pain (and having no idea how far down my pants had been pulled) I opened the side door of my faithful Vito van to see an oily substance on the floor of said van, near the front end…
This bike had been polished within an inch of its life so it couldn’t possibly have fluids escaping? Alas, I soon realised this had more leaks than a Swansea greengrocer: the leak under the front end was down to the left-hand fork leg; it was coming past the damper bolt, which meant that it had not been reassembled properly in the first place.
