W/NG - maintenance

 Amidst a couple of days of routine maintenance, greasing, oiling, checking stuff, chain adjustment, cables etc. I finished a couple of outstanding jobs on the dynamo.

One was the missing felt pad from the commutator end bearing;


The other was fitting the missing cable boot.

It's starting first time, though there seems to be a lot of piston slap and it's quite rich. 

There's also a lot of oil around. On the drive side it's clear the primary case is leaking; on the timing side we have oil coming from the back of the magneto chain case. I suspect it's not pulled up tightly enough...
