In an ideal world you don't have to change the horn every few thousand miles.

To get at the horn on my Renault Clio you have to take the front of the car off. LOL Just thought I'd throw that in.

(And the washer bottle. And the front fog lights. And don't get me started about the headlamp bulbs ...)

For the head light bulbs if you are right handed try your left.

Worked for me.

Pretty sure they made illegal along time ago. Probably around the time smaller chimneys came in. 😊

Hi Ian,
I must agree, the Velo Forum is a superb place for advice, the cumulative knowledge there is quite staggering..
As  Mike says it looks from pictures that the V35/50 was built by starting with the air filter....   I have decided just to leave mine as it is and see what happens. If any oil does emerge from the rockerbox breathers I'll soon spot it - there isn't a trace of oil anywhere on the outside of the bike...

Talking of oil I'm not sure if you can search this Forum, I might have to restart the dreaded oil thread...

Thanks again to everyone for their replies..
