I think the replica cylinder will be the way to go - has anyone used one of the ones available from Wemoto? Chris, The caliper "worked" because it had been bodged with a couple of flat washers and a flanged nut - which is alloy!!! Correct parts on the left, bodgy bits on the right See pic ...

At last I have managed to get back to working on the Z650 and am making a start on the front brakes.

Sorry I couldn't hang around long Ralph - I'll try and plan the family commitments better next t...

OoooooooooRaahhhhhhhh

Are we still go for the meet?

Am now watching it. I suspect the bids will sky rocket at the end - problem with NLA parts........

I voted for the I-Pod (okay, 'cos I'm a tight wad), then realised Ralph would probably be supplying the content

So to avoid all possibility of suffering a homage to Pink Ffloyd all night ( ) I would like to retract my vote and go for the Live Band option please

Just about to go on holiday for a week so the next 2 weekends are out

Thanks guys - ordering today

Shit in the tank.....
