Hi Everyone,
David Lahey wrote:I've been working on my Cota 348, I got quite a surprise when I cut the back off the main section because the packing was made of something quite unexpected. If anyone knows what the original packing in these things is, please don't let on just yet until a few people have had a stab at it

You guys and your Bultacos. I know what they put in Bultaco exhausts and that was what I was expecting to find in the Montesa, but no, they had to be different, as usual!

Very apt paulo, the 348 has been a bit like a wooly mammoth sometimes.

Didn't the Merino sheep breed come from Spain?
