Bucket bits wanted & services needed

I've tried to use a 14 on a twin RGV setup but the dust seals pull back the pistons too far. Scavenge the best ones out of both calipers cause old ones are worse.

Waiting for a full set of seals to arrive to re furnish the front and rear. There were none in nz so they are coming from Japan. I've got a new braided brake line to chuck on.

I try for under size and hope to make up travel with braided line and good bleeding/careful lever adjustments. Notice I said careful.

More power and easier to modulate with a smaller master cylinder, the lever travel is the only draw back if ya go too small.

That's a bonus of radial masters, you can play around with off set from pivot to plunger. MX bikes are getting nice small radial masters these days.

Good work John, I had to get new seals to get things working. Its the outer dust seals that are the worst in those Tokicos.

I've dug this "not a brembo" out, will pm you will be out tomorrow but pick it up anytime

It's prolly about right for a single RGV calliper, I just remember most buckets having stupidly oversize master cylinders thinking they got more braking power from it.

I don't think that it's about 'thinking more power' it's probably just using what is common for 2 caliper setups on single calipers.

Hi

I need a half inch (12.7mm) front master cylinder on my measly, dwindling bucket budget. If you need I can give a 16mm RGV250 master which I currently have that is too large.

Cheers.

For something more permanent check out GN250 masters from TSS, I think they might be 1/2" or close to it and they are pretty damn cheap considering they are new.

Hi guys I am after a short length of brass so I can make up a couple of joiners for my radiator hoses which of course are different from the radiator to the water pump. I have a lathe just need some brass.

hoses are 5/8ths on the Merc and 1/2" on the Honda

I should have something you can spin up. May not be brass but Ali, Bronze or Stainless

[F5 Dave]

I have some brass tube here for making powerjets. its say 3.5mm. might restrict flow a bit.

Tim, I'm auditing a plumbing branch today and tomorrow. I just messaged you a few photos of a reducing fitting which might work for you.
Let me know.

My offer still stands, but that was OD so its quite a bit thinner ID, maybe 2mm, hmm, measures 1.76mm.

[cotswold]

Going to check out Chris's idea then if no go will take up Giggles offer. ( thanks Dave but logistics are a concern )

MC16 inlet manifold lying in a box somewhere? Rich kindly sent me an 18 or 21 but the hole is a bit big.

[speights_bud]

I have a good condition set of mc16 fairings (minus front guard) in the shed for a road bike if someone wants them. Make an offer. Wouldn't mind getting the shelf space back
