Had so much fun the last few weekends, I'd forgotten the 'golden rule' to check all screws / nuts / bolts before and after.
When the MT came back from a blast, and I shut her down through Aux channel ( !!!!!!!! ) I noticed a screw with tapered washer on the ground.
Obviously only from one place, and when I looked, I realised why the engine appeared to be vibrating more than perhaps it should - that was the 2nd of 4 mount screws that had fallen out - no idea where the other is.
I have more washers and suitable screws, so no problems, and threadlocked the replacements into place, then PARTY ON DUDE time !!
Just a reminder to us all - check your screws and bolts!!
