    Hello all, trying to order a few parts from Mikes Xs; I need the front caliper crush washer for the banjo bolt. It's an 8 mm nut to bleed the brakes, does Mikes source the crush washer for the OEM caliper? Also my friend told me to carry a spare master link for the chain drive just in case. I've...
