Whoops, that'll serve me right for skim reading Looks in great condition - one day I'll buy a vario.

(Maybe when I'm drunk and on ebay)

I have a box full of brand new master cylinders...£20 sound reasonable? I just need to check it has the port for the CVT pressure switch. Should do.

I could have come for a look, as I was down in Devon just last week

cheers

Hi James, that sounds very reasonable, but unfortunately I got one off Ebay in the end for £40

Let us know if you're down this way again - or we might be up your way as Dave's (the other half) family live in Lincolnshire (near Lincoln)!

Do you have any other interesting stuff in boxes? We noticed when bleeding the brakes that the rear shocks are in quite a bad way and I've a feeling this might just be the tip of the iceberg. I nearly did a Basil Fawlty on it Saturday as it was running like a bag of poo after we replaced the master cylinder. 'Right so now the brakes work but the engine doesn't... Grrrrr!' Had another look yesterday though and realised that the breather hose was not attached to the back of the carb All's well now

D'oh! Ah well...can't be helped, I suppose. It's still significantly cheaper than it would be for a modern car!

I've got a unit full of interesting stuff in boxes! I think I have a pair of Boge oil shocks somewhere, but you might be just as well off raiding eBay for those, as they're still pretty commonly available.

Yes, I'd be happy to help as and when I can. I'll be passing on my way to Devon again shortly before Christmas, so get your requests in in good time and I'll see what I can do to help

cheers

James

Thanks James, I'll have a think
