Not checked Nigel, I suppose so but who bothers over a little money. If it was a £1000 I'd have been online straight away  ;D ;D

After the recent sad news they have regained one day as the Friday strike was called off and lost a day on the 19th BH.
Thanks, Phil

I think I had better have a set of clutch shims  for my 500 please  Ken for when I take out the engine.
I don't think I can PM you from past experience.

No Erny still got around 5 sets left.

Got round to altering the shims today, did the 0.5 shims which are the hardest to do, will finish the others off tomorrow.

I think this is my last lot, altering them is hard work tbh, it’s one job even my legendary patience gives up on.

Shims are now done, all bagged up and ready to be sent.

If I do any more I'm bunging them on Ebay at £20 a set. The effort required doesn't justify the amount I make on these.

PM me for PayPal address and include your postal address if you want some. Erny, I'd need to see how much extra it would be to send to the EU, hope that's ok. Shouldn't be too much more I reckon.

Another senior moment... well several.
Haven't used paypal for a while and spent an hour working out the pw. Then I find that the only account linked to it I closed six months ago. So have to register new debit card at least I suppose. I'll work it out.
Less work than you have done in getting these done I'm sure, so it's much appreciated.
