The rocker cover gasket doesn't appear to be leaking much at all - however I need to do the injector loom at some point, so I've got a new gasket, cam plug thing and O ring on the way anyway..

Thanks - had a feel round there, and the FPR itself is dry - no leaks from the unions etc and no diesel-smelling fluids.
However, on the underside of it, where it's bolted to the block, and under ... |

Anyone carry bikes in the back of their 90 ? I was thinking about some form of base board with fork mounts on that (front wheel obviously off due to limited space).

Great - thanks!
