Hi Cordy,

If you like, I could show you how to clean the sensor.
It is quite straight forward, no rocket science really.
I'm also trying to get some interest in a CBR mini meet.
Part of that mini meet could be the sensor cleaning.

Cheers,
CD

Hi Cordy,

well done.
Sensor cleaning is not that difficult after all.
I found it to be a mental challenge.
My first go took several attempts and it was
quite challenging because after the first clean
the sensor was worse !
I thought holy cow I've got a worse problem now.
Got the sensor cleaned after several goes and
now it is a simple procedure.

Cheers,
CD
