P.S. Great Moto Martin youtube video, Goss!
Aris,

Glad it is all sorted out now. I believe that your fuel is E5 going to be if not already E10 which is the Ethanol content (5% & 10%), the Ethanol added makes it retain or hold water in the fuel, it also effects aluminium alloy and some carb oil seals not to mention fibreglass fuel tanks. If storing your CBX for any length of time especially over winter I would consider draining the fuel out of the tank and carbs, this may sound extreme but believe me I have learned the hard way this year :roll: .

Glad you like the videos.

Regards

Goss
