Hi all,
So close to finishing now and getting her registered the only thing left now is the brakes (and the popping right cylinder!).
Having a nightmare trying to get the old pistons out but determined to succeed. as I want to put twin discs on my 75 stock XS I had bought another calliper from ebay which seems easier to work with than my originals pictured on the left. I notice there is a slight difference in the castings and was wondering if anyone knows why and is there any reason I could not use the set pictured on the right until I can get the others set up ?
Also my master cylinder is as good as a chocolate fire guard and I need to find a replacement. Someone on ebay is selling repros with a 5/8 bore which look really good. Does any one else have any better suggestions !?
Sorry for such a long message but our British summer only lasts for another 12 hours and would love to have her on the road asap.#
Thanks all
Dave
ps have sent a picture of her as she stands
