Mood: Can't make me mind up
I've thought about fitting them on the 851, but was worried about leaks from the joints. The thought of leak + heat from the engine with the obvious result put me off.

Having said that, when I used to ride Triumph bikes you had to 'tickle' the carbs to start them, which resulted in petrol dripping onto the hot motor and exhaust pipes. Aah those were t' days.
