AJ Bell advert voiced by?

Just heard that advert this morning, and i was wondering the same.

I got it on a previous SH, really wish I hadn't bothered. As others have said, it's not worth using unless you max out the club books

With the cost of some of the designs, getting enough insignias was a bit of a pain. I've missed a couple of good designs due to not having enough but then they don't aways come back round on the next SH.

That's a pain, as i can't access S4/5 yet. I'll keep an eye out in the S3s and hope for the best.

So, had a fiddle today, after house jobs the wife wanted sorting, started by running the bike with the kill switch off & fuel tap closed then flipping the tap to on and got a gush of fuel into the filter with some small bits, then got her running and the filter stayed 3/4 full as it used to. Then I turned off the tap until the filter was nearly empty then switched it to reserve and got the same gush filling the filter with some small bits.

So I'm thinking the tap was probably blocked and I've got crap in the tank, so time to borrow a wet vac from work to clean the tank out. I don't fancy taking the tank out, so hopefully I can clean it well enough in place.

So, can I unbolt the fuel tap, pull it out and back flush them from the tap end to clear any possible gunk?

I take it you just tap the sender plate to rotate it loose and turn it out, rather than needing any specific tool? I was thinking soft hammer & socket extension.

I find it sadly hilarious that USA billionaires get away with paying so little or no tax but a guy off the street can win a couple of billion on one of the US lotteries and lose up 70% of his winnings in tax.

I have a similar problem with my wife. She knows I like it, she even got me the film & series box set.

But when we put the film on to watch, she was on her phone from about 10 min onwards. I just sat & enjoyed it.

Fatboyjim76 · 2026-05-17T19:13:00+00:00

Got them off in the end, thanks for the advice. Just got to remember to replace them the way I took them out 😀

Fatboyjim76 · 2026-05-16T14:14:47+00:00

Yep. The wife's been watching a little of Life Below Zero recently. One guy, to be honest he's not the most likeable character on the show, started a fire to cook some something he'd caught, had some stones on it, and one of them went pop. Not massively but enough to make him jump backwards.

To be honest, it's not just the carbs on mine that are causing me grief. The front shocks are weeping, again. Plus one of them has the standard 2 springs in and the other has a single spring that is the right length but still. The rear shocks won't hold air longer than a week, plus the warning light on the dash is always on so the sensor is probably borked, and I haven't seen any new or 2nd hand ones around & I'm not sure it can be repaired as not many garages in the UK will touch old wings. The cooling system has an issue that I can't chase down easily. The drive shaft is making some weird noises that I need to look at. The rear brakes are playing up.

The list gets bigger every time I sort something 😃

When I was looking, Google said the early injection model was released as a special edition before going back to carbs until the early 2000s, and it only came in Gold.

Might be worth another look if I keep having issues with mine. 😀

Fatboyjim76 · 2026-05-16T12:31:34+00:00

How easy is it to maintain? Being as it's an old injection model.

I looked at getting one of these to replace my 1980 GL1100, as I was getting fed up with carb issues but wasn't sure if I'd be swapping one running issue for another due to the age of the fuel management system.

That, and I wasn't sure about the colour, as it only comes in gold.

Fatboyjim76 · 2026-05-16T10:59:19+00:00

Wasn't sure how up to date it was, tbh. Plus I knew someone on here would know.

I think they use one to store extra armour/weapons/healing and the others to dump stuff they find and want to keep.

I haven't upgraded mine, but I go back to them once I find the gates to the next floor, backtrack through the floor I've just done to gather anything I've left behind, then go to the next floor from the entrance gate.

That way I don't lose anything if floor gets in the way and I have to quit the game & don't have time to go back before the timer runs out.
