Thanks for the replies guy's and a special thank you to Henry for his vivid descriptions

I shall inspect my tubes for 'Cow Snot', though right now I'm just glad to be riding again (though the weather could be warmer ).

Any head rebuilding would have to wait until the end of the summer, it'll take a lot more than 'Bovine Booger' to put me off

No PCV. Just wanted to show that the pressure differential between outside air and inside engine can cause oil to be forced out.

The filter is number 14 on this diagram for my 1990: Ronayers.com Microfiche Honda>Motorcycle>1990>CBR1000F>AIR CLEANER. The first generation doesn't have one.

Cheers, SB
I can only liken your statement to one of my favourite Blackadder episodes where he's selling his house.
"Toby, go forth into the street. Tell all and sundry that I'm putting my house up for sale"
"Baldrick.... just go forth into the street"

Thanks Seb, but I really don't plan on appearing on any stages near you soon.
Armchair comedy is mush more my style. Sorry about your bun. Spit happens.
