I've double checked points gap and colour of plug,
topped up her battery and oil, glug, glug, glug.
Adjusted her brakes and freeplay of clutch
and tightened her chain up, though not very much.
I've pumped both her tyres to the pressure advised,
and made sure no spokes had become compromised.
I've turned all the lights on , ensuring they work
and sounded the horn , just in case (you know,--- jerks)
I've washed all her paintwork and polished her chrome,
I must take her photo on new mobile phone.
Now ridden at fifty there's speed in reserve,
enjoy using "B" roads with plenty of curves.
Don't stress the motor, don't make it go fast,
believe me , do this and your Bullet will last.

Wilf:

The 'break' html should look like this:



Are you perhaps placing the arrows wrongly?

A few helpful hints to prettify your posts:
For bold text insert in front of what you want to be in bold text.
when you're done, insert
to return to normal text font.



Like this.



Which will give you:   Like this.
To start a new line, insert

To start a new paragraph, insert

That's simply two line
breaks.
Change font colour: See,
it turned red

Which will give: See, it turned red. Note the American spelling of
'color'.

To underline, insert and to stop underlining, insert

Thanks Exile. Of course I'll never be able to remember half of those helpful tips! Reckon I'm a tad compulexic. (To say the least!)
