I'd start with "gather round ####wits"

I might end with that if they fail it again!!!!

It's a bloody Aerocatch, how difficult is it to open?

Depends, I can either attempt this weekend after welding up the engine and gearbox mounts properly if not it can wait til the whole lot is back together

(this weekend is also dependant on my free fuel pump being high pressure)

It's not even that difficult - I left it unlocked.

Let's see, the detailed instructions on Aerocatch opening are....

1 Pop the catch
2 Lift the bonnet

I tell you what though I do have difficulty closing mine.

They seem to get moody if there is grit in there and them are a pain to latch. Sometimes.

They get jammed in the up position, ie the lever pressing down doesn't have enough sideways action to slide the pin if it is a bit sticky.

Have to just nudge the pin a little and then they're sweet.

Ever experienced this? (Wondering if its an aerocatches thing or a mud thing?)

By the way, lovely work/images over last few pages, I have given up pulling my hair out over it though

Cheers

It's a mud thing. Unsuprisingly, mine are spotless and work fine!

Good to hear I guess, yeah same, have had to sprinkle water on mine to open them on the trail sometimes.

I just can't win with my bonnet!!

They managed to get the bonnet open. I drew them a picture and put detailed instructions on it. When I got there I bottled it and left the Aerocatchs "ajar" but not open.
