So I've finished the jobs on my Interceptor and I also decided to move the regulator / rectifier from the back of the engine to under the oil cooler using a kit containing mounting brackets and extended cables. Quite a job given my aching bones......Oh and this also involves getting rid of the stupid evap cartridge which sits in front of the RR.

Oh no photos appearing in the wrong orientation again...........

Anyway moving back on to my 1989 Honda CB1 I put everything back together and the engine would start.

Carbs have been removed and sent to my mate for a strip inspection and rebuild .........

Here's a pic of the Interceptor which I've turned upside down to see if it replicates..

🤣🤣👍…. The problem is, when one turns the I pad upside down to look at the upside down photos in their correct orientation. They automatically flip around 🙄🤦???
We can still look suss them out though Martin, so keep them coming 👍

PS.. it’s a smart looking steed Martin.
I assume the seat is an aftermarket item? Big bros didn’t look like that on his

I've had 4 different seats on the Interceptor.

Haven't ridden it with this one yet but it's an OE RE alternative to the standard seat.

I must have an overly sensitive posterior Michael.

Back to the CB1 project now..............report has come in from my mate on the carbs : they are a mess but repairable. They're now in the parts washer and tomorrow the ultrasonic bath.
