Very tidy.

I've been on touch with SS on the forum, so hopefully we are on our way.
Got the bolts for the Dual Disc, but had to buy 50 off.
So have a few spares if anybody wants any in 6's.

Spitfire:
Surprised you had to buy 50, I usually get all my bolts either on eBay or from Custom Fasteners.

They were only 16p each, and seemed to specialist items, 6 x 8mm x 110mm, high tensile. Do you have a particular ebay supplier?

Spitfire:
I don't have a favourite eBay supplier I just look for the best deal for the amount that I want, 16p each sounds very cheap for high tensile zinc coated bolts.

Strange that Goodridge did not seem interested as they made up the lines for my dual disc setup on my 550 as well as for my 750F2.But in the days when stainless fittings were not available,I was supplied with cad plated...which I later regretted.Since then I have always advised people to buy stainless throughout.

On my 750F2 I specified two lines that went direct from the master cylinder to each caliper,bypassing the need for the splitter underneath the headlight.This meant only 7 copper washers,rather than the 11 that would normally be utilised.Less chance of a leak this way.With the advent of front brake light switches being on the master cylinder (on the 750F2) it does away with the need for the heavy and bulky hydraulic switch on the K and F1 variants.This is why a master cylinder from the F2 is ideal for anyone contemplating a doble disc upgrade on a K or F1 model.
